S14 with 17x8/9's?

[s14aleXXX]

17 by 8" wheels in the front, with 17 by 9" wheels in the back. im about to buy some wheels in that size and i wanna see how flush it sits with the car, if you have pictures that would be great, and also what kind of offset and spacers if any you have on Thanks alot

[mrgreeneyes]

nope.

just no.

don't end up being "that guy"

[s14aleXXX]

i dont understand your comment. if it helps, these are the wheels im thinking of getting with the specs. lmk your oppinions

BBS RS: 17x8J+35 and 17x9J +35

My car is a white s14 kouki. Im planning on painting the mesh part BLUE and repolishing the lip. With some low profile tires. ive never seen it done but i think it will look nice. Heres my car:



and the potential rims:

[mrgreeneyes]

the BBS factor changes it.

think it will look good. i got stance coilovers so i can adjust the height to make them sit flush, but you think the spacers will give it a hard looking stance, thats really what im looking for.

yo its the one who sold u jdm headlights...ur car LOOKS exactly like what my zenki looked liked with the conversion and wing only...i lold at the fender hole under near tire...cuz thats what i had...i highly suggest u get kouki sides in WK0...s*** will help out A LOT..and then maybe kouki rear bumper..etc.other than that clean =]

[Dazzla]

I love the white on black combo!!

I think you should go for some better offset black wheels instead of those BBS wheels. Your kouki looks slick!

damn man that actually doesnt look too bad. do those wheels have spacers on them? the offset on the wheels im thinking of getting are the same on the back but just a bit different on the front and it looks nice. do you know the tire sizes on those wheels? thanks man good find

[mrgrape]

since u bought my headlights and have a very similar car to mine: ill reccomend Work emotion CR KAIS/MB BATTLES/R33 GTR /17x9, 17x10,17x11 are all great.225/40 etc.

those are all nice but i dont want to be like everyone else. ive always liked mesh wheels but ive only seen them on s13's so i want to try something different, maybe start a new trend. If the color scheme im describing is hard to picture, i found a picture, all you have to do is imagine it on the kouki. i think it would look sexy as f*** sitting flush on the car. lmk what you guys think:



man i think it would look SOOOO nice

[ArcherV20]

17x9 +20.

Not the best picture, but it's very flush all the way around.

[diggles240]

^ thank you for mounting properly sized rubber

EDIT: The BBS wheels may look ok- especially in the color scheme you posted. Spacers will definitely be required for those offsets.

[AZ89two4Tsx]

The offset will be fine. Will be a little sunken in up front but the rears will be flush, if not stick out a little with no camber. Get em.

[mrgrape]

sorry to say but its already been done before17X10 front 17x11 rear i believe.

oh yeah the color purple on white kouki was my idea first =p

im getting HKS purple work emotion cr kais on the white kouki

ive seen that before. and its not purple that im going for, its blue, but thats the closest picture i could find. the rear will sit flush i know that for sure but ill get some spacers for the front and ithink it will look dope. im decided im getting them, but it will take a little while before i get them painted how i like and on the car. Im gonna start a build thread so ill let you guys see how its going. thanks

[turbo2nr]

do it! get 25mm spacers all around.

and deff do the matallic purple and gold rivitss.. sexy

[Dazzla]

Its your car and its an expression of yourself. Do whatever you want. The purple with gold rivets sounds badass!

Nope, no spacers. The camber is set at -1 degrees all around (for DD). And I have Falken Azenis 225/45/17 all around. To me they look a bit sunken in.

The reason I say to get better offset wheels, is because your fronts are +35 you will need to run 10mm spacer, which mean you will have to extended your studs. I choose wheels so that I don't have to add spacers. But to each his own.

[ddgsxr504]

17x8's on an S14 is for p******, I run 17x9 +15 front and 17x10 +12 rears.

If you want to get wheels that will fit without modification or rediculously strecthed tires go 17x9 +20 all around with a 235/45-17 tire.

The force is not strong enough in this one, he is not ready.
