15" Wheel Guys, Got a sec? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

dizzariot · 10-26-2012, 09:39 PM

So my S13 currently sits on Feal 441 coilovers with a decent drop. I'm on 16x8+5 with 205/50/16 tires since I like the advantages of meaty wheels.

Assuming my car doesn't sell by the end of October, I'm going to order my new wheels: Work Meister CR01's in 15x8-3 A-Disk FRONT and 15x9+7 O-Disk REAR.

Now I used search to find fitment shit, but everyone here is rocking the shit outta 17" and 18" and the Maximum Tire thread is 17" and up for the most part. So now I'm posting to see if there's anyone in here with some insight on 15" fitment...I'm not looking for HeLLaFLuSh shit, just some know how on what tire sizes to consider and what kind of suspension components will assist me in getting where I want to be on a STOCK BODY S-Chassis.

Please and Thanks,
-D.

Eh that thread kinda ended up being a whole bunch of assholes bitching at each other...with cars executed in a shitty fashion lol. I just want simple set up tips. Dorisha isn't what I'm going for.

Thanks for helping me though!

your a bit more aggresive on 15's than me, Im running 15x7 off: 0 in the rear with 205/50 r15, 15x7 off:20 in the front but with 15mm spacers to clear z32 brakes on 195/50 r15,
I have all PBM arms, im running 0 on camber front and rear, im at a 2 inch drop right now and its a good setup for DD, but my rear tire sticks out an inch which bugs me a bit but -1 of camber should fix that.

VVVV thats how it looks VVVV

dizzariot · 10-27-2012, 01:26 PM

My car has a good -1 or -2 of natural camber in the front from being low. My front camber plates are maxed but it's nothing ridiculous...you can hardly tell. I just want to rock my 15" and fill out the wheel wells as good as my 16" do...

If this is all you're really trying to achive, go into a tire calculator, use your current tire setup as a reference and find a tire setup that matches the same overall diameter.

205/55/15 easy tire size to find decent price

you my friend, just described every thread on zilvia.......

ShakotanGazelle · 10-30-2012, 08:50 PM

Go with 205/55s all around man.

dizzariot · 11-01-2012, 08:59 PM

Thanks for the replies guys!

ShakotanGazelle - That's what I was thinking. I might be moving on from the S13 now (funny how life works) so it's either a new car or new rims.

steve.c · 11-01-2012, 10:22 PM

I have 15x8's with +0. Go 195/55 up front, 205/55 in back.

I can't see any of this shit...
