Why would you run a +35 anyways? So many other options on the cheap.

People, people, people. You can make ANY wheel fit on ANY S-Chassis. 18X9.5 +15 is FINE on the S-Chassis with stock height, lowering springs, coilovers, etc. It all depends on your ride's height.

If you're going to ask a question, please include what you plan on doing with the ride height (slammed, tucking, 4x4, etc.). It makes answering your questions THAT much easier.

If you plan on slamming the car, the fronts will need hammer time for the inner fenders. The rears will require a slight pull to clear the tires unless you are tucking.

If you don't want to slam your car, the wheels fit.
Great thanks for the info! I'm planning to have it around the height of the car I quoted maybe even a tiny bit lower have to see it in person to see. Are you talking about the lip of the fender inside which needs to be hammered or something else because I already have it rolled which was done by a hammer I believe lol

18x9 +28 Im thinking I might need a spacer for the front but not sure, and I plan to run 225/40, and 235/40 rears. How does this sound?

Currently sitting on 15x8 XXR002, PBM suspension parts. (Tubs being built soon)

Fronts may or may not clear depending on suspension. Worst case scenario, you need a 3mm, maybe a 5mm spacer.

$677 for the set of all for 17x9 brand new. its the xxr 962, if they would have had it with a +20 offset i would have copped, but they dont

So would i be good with a 10mm spacer? or do i have to go 15?

10mm spacer should clear most coilovers, I had to drop my R33 GT-R's down to +25 to clear my Tein's.

Eh I still wouldn't waste almost 700 on those in those sizes nonetheless, it isn't much more for a set of battles or something in way better offsets. No spacers needed then.

Plus you still gotta throw in $100-120 per PAIR of spacers, so add another $200-250 on top of your wheels to make them look decent. Shit, if you really wanna cheap out, you can get some LiquidMetal wheels that are decent sizes (17x9 to 18x10 with +20s offsets) for less than $150 per wheel!!!

I found a real cheap set of blitz 03 18x8 +45 all around. And I am wondering if anybody knows close to what size spacer I might need to make this fit flush under a stock bodied s13 in the front and rear. If anyone can help I'd appreciate it thank you.

someone on here has something like 275 rears on stock s13 rolled/pulled fenders. 245 are easy peasy.

With 18x9.5 up front get the "high disk" to clear your brakes and nothing higher than a +12 offset to clear your coilovers without a spacer.

Unless its free...dont do it. You'd need some big ass spacers to even consider running it and it would look like utter shit. Probably need 50-60mm spacers to make that weak sauce shit flush. Just cuz the wheel's flush, doesnt mean itll look good with shitty FWD face.

If you don't even want to run a super slight pull in the back get the 9 -3 and 10 +6 set up.

The 9.5 -1 will fit up front with rolled fenders and 225/40s EASY, its only 1mm more aggressive then the 10 +7 I ran with 245s.

Out back is where you'll have issues, mostly because I don't remember what stock body fitment is. With a mild pull a 10.5 -1 will fit out back with 235/40s relatively easily. The 10 -3 is only 4mm further in, and the 10 +6 is obviously 9mm further in. You can roughly factor in 9mm of clearance per degree of camber as well, so you can take into consideration your alignment settings. In order for that 10 +6 to fit with a roll you're probably looking at a 235/40 and a good 3º of negative camber....so if you ran 225/40s you can run about a half a degree less, which would mean you're going to run a 215/40 up front....this all equates to SUPER low with a BN kit.

yokotas13 advised that the offset of the wheels doesn't affect the clearance to the brakes, but the actual lip of the wheel, or maybe I got it backwards. either way I have a pull out back I am pretty sure my 18x10 -3 would fit out back with minimal spacing required. I have 18x10 -3's clearing my willwood calipers but my front fenders are only 12mm which is actually less agressive than stock fenders with a monster pull on them.

I want to run the least amount of stretched tire possible so I may go with a 235 up front instead of a 225. I really want to run a 265 up front but without widebody it's not happening.

Intec performance has a fairly stock bodied s14 with lxz's on it but I never heard back from them what sizing they used, that would've helped me a lot when ordering my fronts. I think just going with an 18x9 up front in any kind of negative offset you're going to get poke from your fenders.



Here is the test fitting on mine, going to have to run some serious camber up front, currently got 1.5-1.7 degree's








Mine are all FR Face 18x10 -3 and 18x11 -7 I think if you go with an 18x10 -7 you'll be fine out back or even with the 18x10-3 out back either way.

18x9 is a safe bet up front, 18x9.5 is pushing it. I don't think I would have the same spoke to brake clearance if I wasn't running the wilwoods due to the discs top hats working as a spacer.

Om1Kron, your car is going to look sooooo good! With ~-2.5-3 camber it'll fit no problem.


And yes, the offset doesn't effect the brake clearance, the wheel disk - which effects the lip size - effects the brake clearance. The lower the disk the less break clearance, and consequently the larger the lip.

okay dudes, i might put an 18x10 +15 in the front of my s13. (assuming i dont need a spacer to clear the coil)

once had 17x10 +9(ish) with 215/40 before and i managed to get it so it didnt rub to much at full lock.

I dont really want overs and no time/$$ for tubs.

(stock tie rods/knucks)

How much more can i expect 18"s to rub?

also, what tire size? another 215/40? or will i need a 205? or do i just need to do work with my favorite hammer and stop fretting?

thanks for the help

(stock tie rods/knucks)

How much more can i expect 18"s to rub?

also, what tire size? another 215/40? or will i need a 205? or do i just need to do work with my favorite hammer and stop fretting?

thanks for the help
Camber, camber, camber. I say 215/40 and hammer the fuck out the inside. Is it a 3pc wheel?

Hey guys question.

Going to be running 17x9.5 +18 rpf1 front 18x10.5 +15 rear on my s13 coupe and its going to be my track car, im wanting to acheive either 0 to -1 camber so i can get more contact pad out of the tire.
Should i go 18x9.5 ot 10.5 on the rear for better fitment? Any imput would help! Please lmk before i place this order! Wanting to order asap.

Also what about a 17x10 +15 upfront? To wide? Doing maximum camber upfront for my steering knuckles.

hey all, i have a s13, and im pretty dead set on a set of 16x8s, and was looking at going with a +20 offset over my previous wheel choice, which was +10

first, im leaving the car stock body, and will roll the rear fender lip if i have to, question is how well is a +20 going to fit? (ill consider small hub centric spacers if needed, but i want to be able to rotate tires)

I have coils to go on the car, and will be going low, but again, not looking for flush to the point of rubbing, looking for about even with top of tire without rubbing

I DO NOT want to run camber to fit wheels, i like to be able to adjust that for handling purposes...looking for the wheels to be pretty straight, but no rubbing.

im also wondering what size tires to run...i was thinking 225s all around, because i like big meats (but not in a gay way ).

im looking for opinions here, thanks

16x8 +0 made to -5 (spacer to clear brakes) so take the tire and push it 25 mms in and has a 205 just for a reference kinda look

Run the 9.5s all around. I assume this is stock body....you'll still have to do a pretty decent pull to run 0 camber on a 9.5 +18 if you're running a tire larger then a 215/40.
