Thanks for the help.

255/35 feddy on a 12, 255/40 most other tires is fine

10's are good with a 225 or 235.

yea thats what i was thinkin. 255/40/18 would be a good stretch right? And im going to run probably a 225/40/18 on the 10.

Only then can you reach good fitment

.......or be stupid like most of us and run wheels way too big for the car and make yourself flex over fenders to fit them

quoted for truth!

sr20dett · 12-18-2008, 07:30 PM

Before

After

Wheels are 17x8 offset +35 all around
front: 20mm spacer = +15
rear: 25mm spacer = +10

Topless_92 · 12-18-2008, 09:13 PM

Yea, you definitely need more fitment....Weaksauce

17x9 +11 in the rear

Car is currently on jack stands. Will be ridiculously low, but need a roll/pull first.

oh man...dont go nuts with your fender pull on those...a roll and a bit of camber would be perfect...im starting to get tired of people pulling the christ out of the metal on their fenders to fit HUGE wheels...i guess the days of ueber clean fitment under rolled/BARELY pulled fenders is gone

my 18x10 +11 SSR MS1s fit under my fenders fine with 225s on em...just added a bit of camber and they look perfect

sure i could pull camber out...but my tires dont rub at all...and i keep it like that so i can fit my 17x9 +0s under there for track use with 225/40/R17 tires...and it STILL looks clean as fuk

hehehehhe...also guys...i just bought myself a xmas present...brand new glitter black 18x9.5 +15 JIC J-Force 5s...ill post some pics when i get em on the car (theyre gonna look HAWT yo w00t

)

Haha. I forgot that Zilvia doesn't take jokes very well. The rear tires are 225/45. They were supposed to be 40 sidewall but they sent me the wrong ones. And it wont be rolled to hell, it'll be tasteful with a bit of camber. Have a nice day

All you need to do is take a heat gun to the inner lip, hammer it flat, throw the wheels on and call it a day.

Here's my 17x9 +12(rear) before I went 5-lug.

Fronts are 17x9 +20.

Camber was about 1.5*

Another fitment just for kicks.

jfandem · 12-20-2008, 12:01 PM

I have work equips on my s14.

The front fenders are rolled, and the wheels are 18x9.5 +8, with a 245/35/18 tire. Camber is around -2.3deg.

The rear fenders are rolled and pulled, and wheels are 18x10.5 +16 with a 255/35/18. Camber is around -3.45deg.

The way the front fits (looks-wise) is perfect, except i had to relocate the wiring harness and I also had to remove both inner fender liners. Sometimes on really hard aggressive turns it rubs in front, and I want to avoid that somehow.

The rear is a different story, the gap is too large to look perfect yet it still rubs up inside the fenders on really hard bumps or turns. And the camber is killing the inside of my tires. I have 275s that fill the gap perfectly, but rubs like 100% of the time so I would have to figure out how to fit those. How are you guys running like creditcard clearance and not rubbing? I want that look and fitament but without the rubbing....what do I need to do?

Finelinetuning · 12-20-2008, 12:09 PM

*edit* sorry picture did not work

jimmytango00 · 12-20-2008, 12:12 PM

18x9 +3
245/40/18

just a test fit, needs pull and roll, also needs tubs...the wheel rubs everywhere haha.

Ninjabread · 12-20-2008, 12:17 PM

needs a way smaller tire IMO

jimmytango00 · 12-20-2008, 12:22 PM

i was going to run a smaller tire but the the rears are 18x11 265/35, i would assume under steer would be a problem if i ran 265 and 225 or 215 up front right?

i wanted to run 225/35

rears:

Ninjabread · 12-20-2008, 12:31 PM

hrm wow, that's a pretty fatty tire in the back.

I would run like a 235 / 255 combo.

jimmytango00 · 12-20-2008, 12:39 PM

i was trying to stay away from to much stretch, not really into the look to be honest, dont mind a bit of stretch, maybe i can just run 235/35 or 225/35 up front.

nisans13turbo · 12-20-2008, 02:04 PM

17x9 -10 215/40
Roll and a small pull
-3.5 camber

I think it would look great if you took some camber out from the rear. You could adjust it to make it fit the way you want. Then make sure your toe is at or very close to 0. Toe is what kills tires, not camber (to a certain extent).

snoozy · 12-21-2008, 12:20 PM

i was wondering if you guys could give us a helping hand, i was wondering if 17x9 +15 te37's will fit on a kouki flush and im currently running 225/45's has anyone done this set up, im sure as hell someone on here has plz need help asap. at this current stage im at a 60% that these wheels will sit fairly flush.

i know the rears will be running about -1 deg camber or so and fronts maybe be running about a -1.5 to -2 deg camber and the fenders all get a nice roll just so the tabs of the guards are straight with the body so i can get closer clearance and hopefully slam it so its about 1 finger from rim to guard.

is this correct or am i wayyy off.
