alright so i got an s14 thats slammed im running a 17x9.5 +7 in the front with a 225/45 and 17x10.5 -7 in the back with a 235/40. Car is under going some work right now, tubbing the front end and gonna do some work on the rear fender well so i can pull the quarters more. My question what tire combo do you guys think i should run, i really like the look of the 45 in the front since it fills the wheel well a lot better then the 40 and would like to run the same tire height in the back just need some opinions.

Considering the title of the thread this is the most pretentious thing you could have possibly said...
But who cares +1 to your post count.

I really need some help. Varrstoen just released a 18" wheel in their es6 model and I'm planning on picking some up.
They only offer 9.5 and 10.5 inch wide wheels. I am new to the wheel figment deal and I want to determine what would be the best offset to go with with a minimal fender pull. Here are the options: Front 9.5 et12 9.5 et22 Rear 10.5 et15 10.5 et22 I apologize for the noob question. I try to compare referencing some post on here, but I rather be safe than sorry. |

Hello guys !
I never changed my wheels before, i have a 240sx and i am thinking to change the wheels to 5 lugs and getting a te37. I am having an issue with the size, i don't know how to measure or what size would fit my car, all i know is i want a 17 on the front and 18 on the back. Any suggestions? Thanks! |

There goes my damn new years resolution... |

I honestly want my fitment to be sort of like a fellow user on here. The car will see some track time, but not into the whole drfiting deal, Im more of a track/street racing. Here are my ideas: Here are his specs: 18 by 10 +18 18 by 11 +18 275 fronts 305 rears Any imput would seriously help, thanks. Also I want to achieve this kind of fitment as best possible without spacer. |

Wheel Fitment Question Thread
Quote:
Being that low will cause you to scrape a few places on your car. Front bumper, anywhere on the exhaust unless you have custom hangers or pulled your exhaust higher. As for your initial question, I'll point you to the right direction. In a S14, 10" up front is the absolute widest wheel that you can fit up front with stock inner fenders. Rears, you could go with 10.5 but you'll have to get a certain sized tire each time and it's usually a 35 profile. You could try 40 profile but it usually ends up being tall. That being said, plug in the specs of the wheels you want on to rim tuck (don't input the offset, just put in the diameter and width of desired wheel). Take notes on tire size, offset, and width then come back when you've got an idea on what you want, how much positive/negative camber you can get away with, if it'll fit without much modification, etc. |

If you want a wide square set up, I'd keep the width of the wheel moderate. 9-9.5 is wide but it leaves you with room to get some rubber in there. Your alignment, spring rates, roads, how much of a roll/pull/overs should be factored in when decided the tire and the offset of the wheel of your choice. |

Okay...was I the one that stated that it was tubbed?
Look. You're asking too many questions when I've already pointed you to the right direction. I could literally just say "go with the 10.5" all around, have fun with rubber band tires and stupid amounts of camber, and the front tubs you'll have to cut and weld in. Have a nice day." But no, I gave you the opportunity to look at other people's set ups and see which one you wanted. Then your job was to come back to this thread and ask "hey guys, I want this and I want this with these wheels with these specs, will this work?" This thread's title should be renamed to Spoonfeeder's Fitment Question thread. |

I apologize if I said anything wrong, I was just asking the other gentleman to elaborate on what he meant by gsracers setup being a feint of heart. I am really noob to wheel fitment, but I have been doing some calculations and I came up with some numbers. For the rear I want to run 18x10.5 et 15 Now for the front I'm still undecided as I want a flush wheel in the front so its between either 18x9.5 et12/et22. For the rear what is a recommended tire size I can run to be nice and squared, if it matters, I want to run Nitto nt01's in the back, I know some different style wheels run different to size. |

^^^^^^^^^^^
damn 275--in the front-- I was unsure about 245/35/18 on 9.5--up front--- how much camber u running--- the back was thinking 265/35/18 on 10---wasn't sure off the offset yet--or think 295/30/18 on 10.5---for traction reasons-- but looking at work s1r-- but u also have a major pull on ur back quarters... these are going on s14 |

How much does 1 degree of camber difference move the top of the tire?I have 225/45/17 on a 17x9 wheel and plan on pulling my rear fenders. I'm at -3* right now and want to be able to put it at around -1*.

FYI, I run 1895 +12 in my front with 225/40 nitto nt555. Only slight stretch with -3.8 camber. My Rear is the same as your projected, 18105 +15 and 235/40, medium stretch (cheetah needed to mount tires), -4.4 camber and slightly rolled and pulled rear quarter panels. If you want more square look of the rear tires, I would say 275/35 or 285/30 should be nicely squared. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

If you are at -3 now take a L 90* ruler and put it on flat ground. Measure what you have now divided by 3, that will give you an approximate measurement of 1 degree.. I am going to guess around 8mm..

not going to be 30's. you're going to have to run 50's and a slip on. i had 18x11+7, 30's and ran 3-4 deg of camber in the rear. rim lip was directly flush with the fender. initial fit and lowered.
