14 inch wheels question

Post by **240Degrees** » Wed Dec 04, 2002 10:45 pm

i have a '93 fastback and i really wanna get these panasports or konig's version of the panasport,but most of these come in 14 inch size. I don't plan on going big brake, maybe just a few brake upgrades, but whatever. How would 14 inch panasports perform/look? I have tein HA coilovers, would clearing them be an issue? My car is a daily driver too. Would a big tire look really funny and handle strangely when i autox? I can imagine there would be a lot more sidewall flex. I plan on drifitng too, but I'm sure when i can acquire an lsd, ill find a good 15/16 inch size to buy. thanks guys.

Go a little bigger!14's belong on little cars, like Civics and such. I wouldn't pur anything on my 240 smaller than 16".And my 17"s look perfect

i kinda like the rota subzero, but i think i'd really like to stick with 15. Anyone with 15 inch subzeros on their s13? Which wheel would be better performance-wise? The subzero or buddy club spf1?

MasterMan: Sounds like Freak has a point though. It's like me saying "Real men drive Skylines", and I don't have one. Too many people on these boards talk smack with stock cars. Props to you Freak for calling him out!

boo yah...

Freak has a stock car too. And his posts are just as useless as Tino's are. There is no difference between the two.

In Tino's defense, he never said he was a real man...he just stated that they have 18s (although this statement is not true anyway).

Yes i have a stock car.... however i have 16 inch steel rims, as opposed to 14s or 15... so technically i can talk.... because i dont even know if tino has a car...

They may not be the prettiest but they do the trick for now....

Understand?
