If you're going wider than 255, 18" seem mandatory. A 315/30/18 is still shorter than a 275/40/17.

If you're referring to mine it's 18x9.5/10.5 +15

I can't drift, what are your best lap times? any more pics or specs on offsets/fenders?

I haven't run any real lap timing yet, but the one lap where the Harry's app worked my last trip to Road Atlanta had me at a low 1:35.

Wheel specs are in previous post, only thing to add is 2.5mm spacer up front to clear the coilover. Rear overs are some no name 50mm, fronts are B-magic 30mm that I cut and moulded on some new lips to be closer to 40mm. Don't really have a lot of detail but I have a build thread on NRR.

91SilviaKs777 · 12-09-2012, 04:34 PM

thanks, i will go ahead and post them

SX APPEAL · 12-16-2012, 06:15 AM

I've read through quite a bit of this thread but still a bit unsure about the setup I want to run.

95 S14, kouki front

I'd like to do a 17x8 or 9 in the front with a 245+ if possible, but don't really want to pull the fenders and I HATE the look of a wheel sticking out farther than the fender arch itself. So what offset would I be looking at to clear the coil (fortune auto's) but still not stick out past the stock fender. Would +25 be in the ballpark?

Now on the rear, same situation, what's the best offset to clear the coil but stay inside the fender on a 17x10, and how much tire could I fit on such a setup? 275-295?

Thanks for the help

what are you running with right now? have you tried using a wheel offset tool online? It basically calculates what you are running currently and what you plan to run.Wheel Offset Calculator do some math, it's very helpful.

JDM SPUG · 12-16-2012, 10:33 AM

I'm running an 18X10.5 ET30 with a 275/35-18. And by the looks of it I could probably run a 305/30-19 on a 19X10.5 ET35 with just rolled fenders.

Swag240 · 12-16-2012, 11:27 AM

I'm rolling on a 18x10.5 +15 and I'm on a azenis rt 315/30 no roll no spacer

What offset are you running?

JDM SPUG · 12-16-2012, 01:28 PM

+15 with a 315 makes it stick out WAay to much. You need less aggressive offset or over fenders or a really nice pull

Swag240 · 12-16-2012, 01:29 PM

I'm going more for the aggressive battle stance not so much the hellaflush stance scene

Running with 17x7 +35 front, 17x8 +35 rear (wheels that came with the car) right now.

Based on what I got from that calculator (very helpful btw, thanks) I figure I can run a 17x8 +25 with a 245/40 on the front pretty easily, and 17x10 +25 w/ 275/40 out back should be no problem at all. I know that's not the most extreme max fitment ever but I really don't want to mess with my fenders or run a huge amount of camber.

Thanks for the help!

jr_ss · 12-17-2012, 07:38 PM

You're going to have a hard time fitting 275's with a +25 offset with out serious roll/pull/camber.

Look above, that's a +36 offset 10" wheel with 285's on it. I have very little room to camber in and my tire sidewall is flush with the rear fender. I do need a roll though, which will happen soon.

You are not going to get 275's under factory metal sticking out close to a 1/2" more.

icantdrift · 12-18-2012, 06:53 AM

Got a few pictures from November that show the 295/315 R6 combo at work

Needs a small spacer out back to stop the inner sidewall from rubbing the fender well and the front wells needed a little hammer time to get rid of rub. The springs are much too soft so I'll be upping the spring rates over the winter and stiffening the chassis more to cope (I'm starting to tear spot welds in the front of the car).

BigKriss · 12-21-2012, 02:41 AM

18x10 all round.
265/35/18 front
285/30/18/rear

18x10 rears -265/35/18
18x 9 fronts-245/40/18

doodoojin · 12-29-2012, 02:11 AM

I will make these fuckers fit! Haha

18x10.5 +15 all the way around. 285/35/18 all the way around. These are from my GTR so that is the reason for 4 of the same. I will probably go 305 in the back.

Looks a little wonky off the ground. But one I find spacers to clear the coil over, it should camber out decently. I heard there is a mod you can do to S13 to move the lower suspension mount in some. Sorry. New to S chassis. Coming from R chassis.

How they are situated is 20mm spaced just to see. Less would clear the coil but not by much.

The original fender needs to be cut as well, bought the car like that though.

TigerII · 12-29-2012, 05:50 AM

Looks great. Very keen to see the back.

doodoojin · 12-29-2012, 06:07 AM

Thanks, I will get it done very soon. Also going to swap brakes from another car, but I am trying to be sure everything will fit/what parts I will need
