Just saying.

Car looks really nice though!

SicBastard · 01-20-2010, 02:29 PM

It still takes some thought to get 255s on an s13.

super clean.... luv it!

240KA · 01-20-2010, 09:51 PM

sorry i dont have any information on this setup, but i thought it was a cool picture, and figured people in this thread would appreciate it. if you find more info on it, go ahead and post up! *drool*

SicBastard · 01-21-2010, 08:45 AM

Still have some toe to pull out in the rears, then back to the body shop to clean up the flairs...

what wheel disk are the wheels to clear 300zx brakles?

Stretch isnt always just about looks.
I prefer the function

SuicidnS13 · 01-23-2010, 06:07 PM

O disk. With out the spacer they are a +14 and with my 15mm spacer they are a -1 and clear barely as you can see. The rears clear with no issues. Also those are 350z track rotors on there so another inch or so of rotors pushing out the calipers even farther.

so if you had just the regular z32 rotors do you think you'd still need the spacers?

SuicidnS13 · 01-23-2010, 08:34 PM

Actually according to the picture the larger rotors place them in the larger opening of the face. It actually gets worse the closer the calipers move inwards.

240KA · 01-23-2010, 09:57 PM

ROID, aside from dumping the clutch, do you break loose those 315's pretty easily? details...

they grip pretty good.. i making 570whp at the moment.. this Kumhos(ecsta xs) are sticky for sure.... the RT615 couldn't handle the power at all...

longfellow · 01-24-2010, 12:36 AM

Thats because RT615's suck. They're way out-dated.

NT05's, XS's, Starspecs, RE-11's is where its at.

HYPNOTIK · 01-24-2010, 12:51 AM

Don't forget AD08's

longfellow · 01-24-2010, 11:02 AM

Those aren't cheap.

Work VS-xx
18X11 (+27)
18x10 (I measured 6.5'' of backspacing, so =+25) The person I bought them from was told+15 but the sticker was faded.

I currently have 265/35s on the front and 295/35s on the rear but I'm going wider once I've finished up with my current fender pull. And the addition of GC coils so I can cut the spring perch off, and lower the vehicle a little more .

Here are some pictures and video of the wheels on the car the week I got them. Enjoy but please keep in mind that the fitments and tire size is NOT a finished product, so think of this as a "BEFORE" video/photoshoot.

Current alignment settings:

noucamp · 01-25-2010, 09:04 AM

hello

Can you guys help me ? I want buy Rota wheels to my s14a.

Front: Rota P45F et25 8,5"
Rear: Rota P45R et30 9,5"

What do you fings think ?? this size is okey ? Rear: Rota P45R et30 9,5" is not to big ?

eds13 · 01-25-2010, 09:17 AM

you'll be alright, might wanna go with a little lower offsets tho. your best bet is to search through this thread and the other fitment thread for a while. see what you like, and get something similar as far as sizing goes.

and ALWAYS remember to search before posting

It's an SR, but I'm always on Supramania. I used to have a 2JZGE-T MKIII Supra.

sirfallsalot243 · 01-26-2010, 07:09 AM

Little help guys?

S14, stock body (NO ROLL or pull)
Lowered a TINY bit (about 1.4")

Wheels are 18x9.5 +24 Hotwheels 68's

I was thinking 225 or 235 up front, 265 in the rear? Will a 265 rub on a stock body s14? I know the vast majority of you guys have at least a roll, if not a pull. I have neither (but my offset is +24, which should allow for a fairly wide tire). What do you think? I like the wide tire look, but yes, my car is underpowered for such a wide tire. Only temporary. But I dont want massive understeer by choosing a front tire too small by comparison to the rears. I also want to retain decent ride comfort.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

RAMM · 01-26-2010, 01:37 PM

Sirfallsalot...your going to cut it really close. I think it should fit, but atleast roll your fender.

So the guy who bought my wheels needs some fitment help!

Here it is with a minor pull and a full roll. You will need a fender roller to achieve this and alot of heat!

1st is while I was on springs and shocks, 2nd is on stance coilovers. BTW I am running 245/40 fronts and 275/35 rears-

Dazzla · 01-26-2010, 05:51 PM

^ that rear fitment is perfect imho. Do you guys remove the fender liner in the back?

SuicidnS13 · 01-26-2010, 06:03 PM

My new rear figment is even more spot on with wider rims and an even lower offset. Not to mention a much more aggressive pull.

*fliprayzin240sx* · 01-27-2010, 05:55 AM

Finally fitted my fucking rims...Sniper Racing Dragstars 18x9 +6 235/40s and 19x10 -3 275/30s

Just the guy I wanted to hear from.

Now heres how my situation is different. My car is my daily. Yours is MUCH lower than mine. You also have a pull and roll. I have neither, and wasnt planning on doing either. Maybe a roll, Im just nervous about rolling fenders since ive seen it go horribly, horribly wrong.

I feel 275's are a bit ambitious for my situation. Id love to rock them, and I think theyre the perfect size for the rear of an s14. But until I get another DD and can really dedicate the s14 to being a weekend only car, i dont want to do anything to it thats going to make it less pleasureable to drive (and rubbing tires fall into that category).

I feel like a pussy... all you guys with your 315's and whatnot lol. I love the wide tire look but my car is my daily! And its got a stock KA! Id really be a ricer with 275's and 135whp.

Another option I have is to choose a more moderate tire size for the time being, allowing me to run the same size on all 4 wheels, so they could be rotated. Then once i've got some sort of forced induction, replace the rears.
