If it's rubbing, do something about it.

You can tuck rear you don't have to tuck wheel in front.

joefresh · 08-03-2011, 12:24 AM

easy fix
apply a hammer to the inner fender
beat it like it owes you money

Keep in mind this is a low angle, when you are standing up in looks tucked

19x9.5 +12
19x10.5 +12

tuck those 19's more man other than that car looks good just hammer and make more room

towlie · 08-03-2011, 12:58 AM

Seriously. Lower. Drive it and see where it rubs. Hammer it. Repeat until boss status has been achieved

This. Or let it rub. Tire is stronger than you think

ayuaddict · 08-03-2011, 02:23 AM

Yeah, no, tire may be stronger than you think, but it is not stronger than steel.

I would take towlie's advise.

OBEEWON · 08-03-2011, 07:13 AM

Steel Magnolia....

White makes wheels look bigger. Those look like 20's.

Where it was in the picture of the front is where I would like to run it but when I set it at that there was WAAAY too much rake. When I get my rear inner wells figured out then I will set it to this. Thank you for the advice

I know where it needs to be clearanced but I am worried about quarter panel distortion when hammering on the panel. Since the inner panel is tied directly to the quarter panel I am thinking if I beat on the inner panel and get it to clear the tires it will also distort the quarter panel. Black shows all. Sorry for the horrible wording...way too much coffee this morning. If I am wrong on this please let me know, I am always down to go more low.

They actually measure 20 1/2 inches from edge of lip to edge of lip, Thanks forthe input guys! Much appreciated!

miggypq21 · 08-03-2011, 02:01 PM

The rear inner fender isn't touching the actual painted quarter. Well not all of it at least. If you pull your inner rear quarter trim out you can actually see an inner fender and how much room you have to work with.

I still beat the shit out of everything and never got a hammer mark through on the quarter panel. This will only get you so far though because eventually the rim starts to hit up there or you stretch the metal so much from hammering/rolling that it tears or just makes a nice hole.

In the end it isn't really worth it and the best thing to do is what knoop did (cut and reweld the inner fender/mini tub) if you plan on keeping stock metal.

Gription · 08-03-2011, 03:17 PM

Fronts should be 18s imo. For the rear, maybe a smaller tire and lower it

MiKED240 · 08-03-2011, 03:23 PM

18x9-5
225/45 all around

EhrikETFG · 08-03-2011, 03:29 PM

prolly not low enough for this thread but that looks really nice lol

slowvia · 08-03-2011, 06:17 PM

I dont know why everyone is bitching about the black S14 with white wheels, shit looks good in my book.

Royal13 · 08-03-2011, 06:38 PM

Yea 19's are big for a 240... But I think helm's 14 is as good as it gets when it comes to that size.

doriNIGHTS · 08-03-2011, 09:15 PM

rightcoastimports · 08-03-2011, 09:37 PM

i had 19" volk GTF (9.5, 10.5), ppl said they just look too big on a 240.. cars so short you know.. 18's is the biggest i'll go. heres a pic mounted today 235/40 on a 18x10.5... f*** my fake wheels

*revat619* · 08-03-2011, 11:55 PM

IMO, 19s only work on an s14 in the rear and even then the car has to have aggressive aero like vertex, BN, URAS, whatever.

Just the other day somebody asked if the wheels on my S30 were Diamond Racing Wheels, I was insulted to be honest. And then saddened to think that people nowadays are more familiar with stamped steel NASCAR wheels than SSR MKIIIs...

You should have slapped him with your dick.

And then been happy that he DID NOT know what your wheels were.
Ignorance is bliss remember? Let the uneducated masses die happy.

Versa looks dope. Video sucks though.

Sugoi_Style · 08-04-2011, 10:34 AM

Works work on the Versa (as they do for most cars ^_^). Bags too. It can handle daily grind while being able to hard park. Win-win situation going on there. She's ridin' on legit wheels, so I hope she's safe around potholes, speed over speedbumps, etc...

hartig · 08-04-2011, 11:04 AM

its bad when 18s look like 16s on a brand new car
(looks good though, not trying to make fun of it)
