Z32 N/A wheels on an S13 with 30mm do not clear up front whatsoever.

You need a 25mm hubcentric spacer to clear the suspension. The brakes would be plenty clear if the suspension wasnt in the way.

The rears clear with no problems suspension and brakes.

If they came off a 300ZX, they will clear the brakes no problem. And +35 offset will fit an s14 just fine... Won't have that flush fit in the front if I remember correctly, but they'll fit just fine.

When did they make a 002 in 16x9.5? I have the 002 16x8 0 offset, they do not clear Z brakes, would need at least 10mm spacer. If that 9.5 is real, then I imagine the spoke design is the same and would have the same issue for clearing them (spokes are too flat/close).

I didn't take any pics when testing them on my coupe (with 30mm Z brakes). I have the pics of the wheels on my vert (stock brakes).

With 225/50/16 tires and roll/pulled fenders in rear (slight pull in front now as well, not pictured):


Before fender work and alignment (for more neg camber):

Since this thread is up, the 17x9 +12 Rota P45R clear 30mm Z brakes with a ton of room. Don't have any close up pics of them mounted yet, here's a pic of the wheel though:

Advan Sa3r's fit 17x7 +35 CLEAR 30mm. 17x8mm +35 clear too

Here you can see my 32mm GT-R calipers. There is a 1mm or 2mm gap between caliper and wheel...no need to say that this is really flush...

No need of spacer (wheel turn free) but i will put some 10mm just to be safe in my mind.
