17x10" +12 FN01rc on S13?

about to order 17x9 +20 in the front with a stretched 215, and 17x10 +12 in the rear with a streched 235.. i have rolled/ pulled fenders all around so will it be a problem clearing on an S13? also, what side walls should i get with that tire size to make it look a little "meaty" not like im rolling on rubber bands you know what i mean? thanks for the help in advance.. also, does anyone have pics of a 17x10 +12 mounted in the rear of an S13? searched all day all i could find was a pic of 17x10 +35 on an S13...

You should be ok, but you'll definitely need that pull. Check www.MA-Motorsports.com in the gallery, I believe they have a couple cars running that wheel in the rear. Burgundy Fastback and Champagne coupe with S13 front end. Don't quote me on that though. I think that's what Brian told me at the last event...

I know that they barely clear using 30mm overfenders. for tire size I'd recommend 245/40-17. Maybe 45 if it'll clear.

Woody's old car, RIP

When I go home from work, I'll look some more up, there are pics of those on his new hatch with much less roll, also pics of them on Brians coupe.

why not just go with the 10 +35 in the back instead?

you're putting a 17x9+20 in the front, which isn't nearly as aggressive as the 17x10+12 you want to put. the 10 +35 is gonna be plenty flush, just order that imo.

you have 5 lug only in the back? no hate, gotta save that paper!

normaly i woudnt stretch tires, but since these wheels are so huge i need as much clearance as possible.. the slanting of the side wall should give me enough room to clear a slightyl pulled fender, unlike the straight sidewall of a 265..

stretch tires let you use the heaviest rim possible to put down as little rubber on the road. ITS JDM!
it does look kinda nice sometimes though.

or you could actually do it right and run tires that fit right. fucking people i swear... people who stretch their tires obviously don't care about performance, unless you're a sweet drift0r, then i guess it doesnt matter and the smaller contact patch is good.

chmercer, you're a moron. go back to your awesome 18x10 rims that don't even perform as well as a set of 17x9s with tires that actually fit because you stretched the shit outta your tires and you're rolling on rubber bands... too cool. i bet that car looks badass while its parked and not moving, because thats all stretched tires are good for (even though they don't even look good)

i don't know what is up with the trend of "flush" rims with huge lips and stretched tires, waste of fucking money and performance.

Dude, how about you calm down.
People can do what they want, and you may not like it, but doesn't put you in a position to be a dink about it.
Go start a pissing parade in another thread instead of taking this one there.

17x9 +20 offset... that blows... it means you will have to run full positive camber on your OE bolts and full negative on a camber plate just to get your wheel to sit straight.

you need a 17x9 + 10 if you want your upper camber plates to work.
I got a 17x9 +15 and i hate the fact that i have to use spacers to get some savage negative.

I'm running 17 x 9 +20 with no problems at all just rolled fenders, but I haven't droped her yet either, when I do I'll probably have to pull too. I imagine you wouldn't have to adjust your settings this extreme unless your slamming the car right? The most I'll be able to drop my car is 2 inches anyway, if I go anymore I won't be able to make into my driveway or drive more farther than 5 miles on the OK roads.

ahahahahahaha going to the homosexual parade this weekend
make sure to tell all your homo friends about streching tires and big lips or make your own thread about it
why dont you concentrate on making your car into whatever you want it to be somewhere far away

yea i dunno what the fuck is up with people increasing the track on their cars to make it more stable. id rather have my car be as narrow as possible. AWESOME. yea i guess 265f / 275r is rubber bands. id rather have your big dog steam roller 205s or whatever crackerjack shit you roll around on when your heading to the grocery store strapped in with your type r seatbelt pad. oh yea and i guess thats why my car was on the news for drifting, since i park it all over the place (not moving). go pick up some 1995 issues of super street, seems right up your alley.
