18x9.5+15 245/40/18
18x10+38 275/35/18



I had to pull my rear fenders 1/2" more today to clear the tires. making it total of 3/4" pull from stock.

bear with me, this is how my car is now: (215/40; 17x9 +15; 225/40; 18x10 +14)



i'm trying to put these wheels in the front (245/40; 17x9.5 +19)



and these in the rear (265/40; 18x9 +15)



yes, i know the rears are narrower.

to maintain my current ride height (not adjusting the coilovers at all), what must be done? looks like tubs are needed for the front.

must add that i refuse to put overfenders on but don't mind running retarded camber.

no you wont need tubs for 245 40. just a lot of fender well bashing. also depends on what brand tire how tall they run. and those balloon tires for the rear dont think those will fit. there too tall by looks of it. i ran 265 35 in the back with a small pull 18x10 20 offset and it was kind of sunk but no rubbing issues at all
edit just saw your height, your gonna have to raise it a little

In that picture, front's -3.5 camber and rear's at -1.8 camber.

since that picture, I raised the car up 15mm's all around. front is sitting at -2.8 camber and rear's now at -1 camber.

I gotta even out the car height and maybe even corner balance it, and alignment soon.

Don't forget that he's also Kouki front, so he's working with more fender clearance from the get go. And to that I say, you've got it looking on point! Well done!

Baja 1000! Yeee haw!



KYB GR2's with Tein lowering springs.
Rides 1000 times better then the Stance GR+ coilovers did.

I may never go back to coilovers again, because my car is now a certified daily driver[well, it's been the daily since 2007, but now it's much more comfortable. LOL]

the fenders are pulled, front's roughly 1/2inch pull/rolled and rear's are 3/4inch pulled/slight flare.

18x9.5+15 245/40/18
18x10+38 275/35/18

If you want some cushy coils, fork up the dough for some KW's. They are squishy soft compared to your GR+ crap coils... Just a suggestion.

Better pictures before splitter and smashed front bumper




Also mounted up the Hoosiers today, everything fits out back and the front needed a 5mm spacer to keep off the coilover. I'll add pictures after they're balanced and on the car for the upcoming track event at Road Atlanta.

Any advice about me running 18x9 +25 255/40/18 on all 4 corners. I drive a stock body s13 coupe with megan coilovers/RUCA. Spacers shouldn't be needed should they? And I want to run the minimum amount of -camber possible. I know that a roll/pull will probably be needed but nothing to drastic. Any advice would be appreciated.

Ya it will fit, might be a little tight between the coilover and wheel up front but should be ok. I wouldn't run 40 series on a 18 though your going to be monster trucking it. Look at my post a few posts up that's 255/35/18 but on a 18x9.5 so your setup would be more meaty on a 9j.

Some quick questions since ive been browsing on here and don`t feel like going through pages and pages. I want some good fitment on my s14 with the lowest offset i can possibly put on. My rear is rolled and pulled, but my front isnt. I have 10mm spacers and my used tires with good thread left 245/40/17& 275/40/17.
