hey guys.. ive got a pair of Works VS-XX Rims 18 x 10.5 +26 for my s14.. got a good deal on them a while back.. but have been sitting in my garage bc they need to be re-gasketed. (damn 3pc rims )

so basically i bought these when i didnt knoe a damn thing about wheel size..offset.. etc.. (almost 2 years ago) .. and totally forgot about them

i bought 245/45/18 tires.. (ridiculously retarded ) and they did not fit for sh*t .

in any case.. is it at all possible to fit these rims with a nice tuck without having the AWD special look (super high height) in the rears? if so what tire size (i was thinking 255/35/18) but would this be possible with merely a fender roll and pull ?

my fronts are the same rims 18 x 9.5 + 26 w/ 235/40/18 those fit.

so is there a way to fit these? or should i just flip them and get myself a good set of rims that fit well without hassle?



help a brotha out for his winter traction.. i have tein FLEX coilovers btw



other alternatives include:

G35 OEM 18's $400 + shipping (ex not my car)

G35 OEM 19's $550 local (ex not my car)





or just sell these and save up for something better in the future.. like a set of Volk GT-U's or the Greddy Gravity's which i can get a decent price on

or keep them? anyone interested? comments? anything? help? yokota san wa?

trying not to camber.. if i pull.. will the 255/35's fit? ..stupid noob question.. whats the best setup for 18s on an s14? 18x10 +35? or something along those lines?.. 18 x 9.5 +25? .. reason im asking..is if i do decide to sell these rims.. and get a more suiting set... i want one that's going to sit nice and fush without camber but with a decent tuck (i dont mind pulling / rolling fenders) just rather leave it with a lip roll and not have to pull. im talking about the rears of course. i like how my current fronts sit. they dont stick out as much as the rears .

in any case domo yokota san!!
