Clearance for DT05Rs

Well, zilvia is having another GB on these wheels so I'm gonna try to jump on it. I'm a little stumped on sizing though. I thought 17x8.5 +25 all around would be a good choice for my s14-flush with fenders, clear coilovers in rear...however, I'm not sure if they will clear in front. Offset calc says that I will have 10 mm less clearance than stock...how much should I be looking for? I don't want the super drift stretched look, but I don't wanna cram huge meats on there autoX style either...maybe a 235/45/17? Something like that. Anyways, just wanted to see if these will clear kts coils up front, or if i will need to go with a different offset or even a small spacer. Thanks!

They won't clear coilovers up front with 235's, as I could barely fit a sheet of paper between that set up and my AGX shocks. If your S14 is 5 lug, I think the +15 offset is a better choice. That size and offset even looks a little sunken with -2 degrees of camber on my S13. On an S14 it will look even more sunk. +15 will look good, imo, and take care of any clearance issues.

man, thanks for the tip. sadly, i'm not gonna get the DTs...I'd have to pay $150 more than for FNo1RCs for no real benefit other than looks, and I can't afford to do that with my budget. Thanks though
