help a fellow s13 driver out. thanks

[BackIntoAnS13]

Im looking into getting the 5zigen Pro Racer GN+ in the 17x8.5 in front and 17x9.5 rear. There suggested offsets were +22 for front and +38 in the rear. My question is...... those offsets were for an s14 would they still be or look flush on an s13. On stock suspension right now but plan on getting the KTS coilovers the first week of August. Also what tire sizes would you guys recommend. Any info would help guys. thanks alot.

PS: Just in case you guys need to know, I know those were 5 lug sizes and i do have the 5 lug conversion on my s13

The fronts are going to be just about perfectly flush with a slight roll and average camber. I have 17x8.5 +25 up front, and it could easily come out another 3mm. Im running 225/45's, and I would suggest you do the same. I really cant comment on the flushness of the rears, but you should run a 245/45 tire on that perticular size. Im hoping that rear will clear the coilover, it might be close. Youll have to get somebody who has run that exact size to comment.

that will be fine, just run a 245/40 rear, not a 245/45, that way you match OD's

[whiterps13]

My fault, thats what I meant.225/45 Front245/40 Rear (I'm still not sure about coilover clearance. Make sure you talk to someone who has this size on an s13 before you buy 'em. You could always run the 8.5 +23's all the way around, I'm not a big stagger fan anyways.)

cool thanks guys, i guess ill have to ask if anyone is running that size in the rear and what tire to clear coilovers. On another topic just out of curiosity...... ive searched and havent really found anything on them but what do you guys think of D2 Coilovers. I know majority of ppl on here recommend the KTS's which is mainly the reason why i want them but how would you guys rate them against KTS. Or just as a coilover in general. thanks again.

[whiterps13]

People generally seem to like D2's, they are also the exact same coilovers as K-Sports. They dont have the adjustability of KTS', and are a little bit cheaper. I usually trust something if SPL endorses it, and they seem to love KTS's as well as everyone who owns them.

[whiterps13]

I persoanlly think you should run those 17x8.5 +22's all the way around. The car would have less understeer and the tires would last longer because you could roatate 'em. Heres a pciture of the fitment of 17x8.5 +25 225/45/17 all the way around on my car. Keep in mind that the back had excessive camber, but that was fixed with my SPL RUCA's. The back actually stick out perfectly now, but the sidewall of the tire is still within the fender. Yours would stick out 3mm further than mine.

ive got KTS sitting in my garage waiting to go on...7/5 rates though, shelf are 8/6

i havent ridden on them, but id also seen the overwhelming number of people that praise them, and i got them based solely on the comments of others
