15x9 works under a 50mm overfender...what offset am i looking at?

[pj]

while running overfenders...and using a 15x9 wheel...what offset would give you that nice flush look...i like work equips and they come on all offsets pretty much.so, wheel fitment warriors...what offset will work?...im thinking in the negatives...-10 -25 im not sure on that...im a fitment idiot im afraid.

let me give you some info too.the car in question is s13, hatch.will be lowered with coilovers, and i dont like to have to run tons of neg camber to make wheels fit.(ie ridiculous looking)im just curious, i havent ordered parts or anything like that. this is just a possibility im thinking about lately.

15x9 -33

you should make the car fit wheels, not wheels fit the car.

lol, yeah thanks for your help and clarification. -33 is a bit deep...but i like me some stupid low offset wheels so whatever.i may widen up to a 10 in the rear if thats what i decide dunno.

thanks for the pleasant response though, OG

Lol I think he was joking.

[Gabes13]

why would i be joking??x9 +17 is a good size for stock fenders -50mm for 50mm over fenders =-33

i think he was talking about this auto-jedi statement you made right here.which doesnt mean much at all, seeing as how i may change the car itself and would have to buy wheels to accomadate such change. your statement could be taken as either/or and i called you an OG in a sarcastic manner ...so he said hey, i think he was joking...i dont care either way. i just wanted a # and i got it...thanks a bunch

Who makes a x9 wheel with a -33 offset? Wouldn't you rather have a larger width wheel?

[pj]

its all be what i could find...i mean i HAVE seen old school enkei(i think they were) in -38 or so...it looked nuts! i have ons of time and ill be on the look out of course for used s***. but if i order new i may have to go 10.you can get some pretty crazy offsets if you search hard enough

Really though a 9in wide wheel will fit under stock fenders. I tucked a 17x10 in the front of my s14, and the wheels were flush with a small roll. If you are running 50mm over fenders you should be thinking of 10+ width wise.

here let me quote myself...

but if i order new i may have to go 10.

so yep, already on that track dude.

im also looking at a coupe for super cheap, so i may not have to go O.F. at all and use this car as a parts donor...we'll see what happens...ha cause this hatch is looking like afghanastan lol
