Hey everyone quick question, I'm not super familar with where to put this question so pretty general.

I'm looking into a set of wheels/tires for my S14 zenki.

18x8.5 +20 245/40/1818x9.5 +20 275/40/18

Anyone have similar wheels on their own cars? Will this fit on a S14? I have coilovers so high is adjustable. Will the rears need a fender pull? or roll?

Any help will be great thanks guys, sorry for the noob question

Did you roll your fenders?
