Alright, I was wondering what size spacers will make a stock set of s13 alloys look more snug. I already know the consequences about spacers so please dont bring them up. I also plan on adding Sportlines. Thanks in advance.

wtf does "more snug" mean; why would you want to put spacers on your wheels if they already clear the suspension/brakes?

He is probably referring to the wheels being more flush with the plane of the fender and 1/4 panel.

Your gonna need something like a 20-25mm spacer to set out the wheels that far.

Jack up the car and slide your wheel to the edge of the fender. Have someone measure the distance from your hub to the mounting plate on the wheel (center round peice). That will give you an estimate of how wide a spacer you'll need.

I HIGHLY suggest just fitting wheels with a better offset and that are wider. Spacing out a wheel that far is dangerous unless you plan to get a set of the more expensive spacers that have their own secondary studs built in. Even then you need to check the lug nuts often.

thats a lot nismo freak thats a very reasonable answer.
