Anyone have 10in wide rear tires on there 240sx?

[clutch Kick drifter]

If i get Gram Lights 57 pro wheels and go 10in wide in the rear what else do i have to do for them to fit with MR coilovers.

[EazyBreazy]

would probably get a better answer from the wheel/tire/suspension forum. but hey i'll do what i can. there are people running 10 on the rear with little more than a fender roll, and slight stretch on the tire, and maybe some camber on s14's. i dunno aboout the s13.

much of this information can be found by searching the forum though.

10" wide is not practical.

Search the forum.

I also plan on running 10's... but haven't really looked into this much yet. All I know is that it's possible.

Anyone with 10's care to chime in?

I don't have 10's but I do know that It can be done. Depends on what offset you are running, stretching tires, rolled fenders, camber. Combinations of these will allow them to fit. s14s have a lot more room under the fenders than s13s.

17x10 +25 will need about 2 degrees of camber and a 20mm Pull to not stick out... thats on a 255+ sized tire too.

The fronts would need quite a bit more work though.

wow.. ive heard of wide load but sheesh..

ill be running an 8 inch wide tire on the rear. ill be running some 50mm rear quarter panels though.

id agree.. some fender rolling would be schweet for that set up

I'm not too fond of rolling the fenders. But I guess it depends on how much.

Anyone got pics of some 10's on an S13? I want to see the fender rolling action.

I was either gonna get them rolled or get flares. Id go 10in in the rear and like 8 in the front and still deciding on the offset. WHat would be the best looking offset for the rear?

Hahahahahah Are you serious? an 8in wide rim would need like -70 offset to need +50s.

You shouldnt need flares. However, 2in of stagger is kinda wack, I'd either man up and get the 17x9 +15s for the front or do 17x8 +25 in the front and 17x9 +15 in the rear.

17x9 +15 on the front is doable on rolled pulled stock fenders with a 235/40 tire... if you wanted to use a 255/40 you would need over fenders though.

[McRussellPants]

I dunno what he was trying to do in the front since the 9 +15 will fit on stock fenders and those arch flares look kinda trashy, but whatever.

those are 10 +25 in the rear.

I met a guy this weekend with FN's on a S13. He had 17x10 +20 in the rear with 235's and 17x9 +15 225/45 in the front. No idea how much camber he was running. He had a SLIGHT roll. You could probably use more camber instead of the roll.

EDIT: I just looked at 5Zigen's site. There is no +20 listed for 17x10. Its either +12 or +25. I betting he had +25...
