[Tsukai240]

finaly got pics here are the konig rewinds 15x7w/0 , 205x60x15 this is how much the stick out on the side side profile this is some damage the fender did to the driver side rear tire

what you all think?

obviousley i'm having some clearance issues.this is what i have planed to make them work right.>get smaler tires 195x50>get some more -camber maby 1.5-2 deg.>new subframe bushings>new shocksthink this will work?

i posted this in the sus. forum but got virtualy no responce. sorry about the lowgrade pics but, what do you expect from a $30 camera.

Your tires and wheels stick out beyond the fender.

Nothing will make the wheel sit closer to the car.

Rule #1 for street cars is:You don't fit wheels by altering CAMBER!

[Axel Grungy]

man how did your rear fender still rub?? look like youve got plenty of clearance??what suspension are you running??

[hannibal]

^ It looks like you have tons of room.You mentioned shocks...If you have dead shocks, you definitely should replace them.

well i have a prety signfigant lean. i'm assuming its the subframe bushings. as far as sus. i'm rockin blown oem (hehe) i have some tokico blues sitting right next to me right now that i'll have put in next weekend.

I have 225/50/15 on 15x7 +15 with no figment issue, it's sticking out also and I think it looks hot like this

[Tsukai240]

yeah i like the sticking out look to reminds me of JDM rice

why dont you check out some aftermarket wide fenders? the msports look pretty nice. that way you wontneed to go nuts with camber

[cyrus240sx]

mmmmmm.... loving those oil coolers

[WeldingHank]

lower that and pull the fenders...would look PERFECT!

[xyoufailmex]

Bah I think its hot... dont see how theyre rubbing though, hrm... Ive got some 15x7 +20 offsets coming in so I hope they set a little further in than that.

I think its hot, screw flares unless you just really like em.

[Axel Grungy]

gah i want to get my rewinds mounted now, i just bought a set of 280zx swastikas too

[chmercer]

needs to be like 5 inches lower but dosent look bad for konigs

[Tsukai240]

pull fenders...............???? never herd of it but i'm intrested.

what do 280zx swastikas look like. care to post a pic here axel.

as far as over fenders(flares, whatever), i want it to look clean. like it was ment to be there.

[Axel Grungy]

heres a swastika

[Dirtylou]

I imagine that pulling the fenders is rolling them with a fender roller...if it's not, then something similar. I agree, you should either roll the fenders or (if you want it to be noticable) put some flat black flares on it with rivets... old school. At least that's what I'd do.

[ArticDragon192]

You should be fine with rolling and pulling the fender.

[Axel Grungy]

you can use a baseball bat to roll your fender

[sleepyRPS13]

welcome to the swastikas club.. remember to use the right lug nuts

[xyoufailmex]

Get it done right though.... Most places offer fender rolling for 15-25 dollars per wheel

[Axel Grungy]

welcome to the swastikas club.. remember to use the right lug nuts

yeah hes sending me the right lugnuts too

damn i love these wheels... i wish i can find them around here. anyone know where i can find them.

oh and those konig rewinds are pretty hot...

[The 240 kid]

That first shot from behind makes those tires you have look like mud boggers or something (with the sticking out enough that you can see the tread blocks). Oh yeha and the baseball bat rolling fenders sounds like an awesome idea, lol.

[Tsukai240]

well i'm glad that most of you like the wheels. i'm just glad that they are not sunken in. that would look even worse. there are alot of people in houston who have the wheel sticking out look, so i feel right at home. (i guess its a local style)hehe, i don't care about what the purists say, i'm happy with them.

[gogg]

so your only clearance issue is with the fender?cause i was planning on getting some 15x7 with +13 offset in the front and some 15x8 with +13 in the rear. I'm pretty sure my wheels will stick out alot further so I kinda need to know how close i can get to the strut (im ordering custom rims). As for the tires I'm gonna be doing like a 195-205 width and 50-60 height front and back. Gotta love crazy wheel/tire fitment.

[Tsukai240]

have you used the Wheel offset calculator ?http://toy4two.home.mindspring.com/offset.html

well the rear on yours is:The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 2mm MOREThe outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 52mmthis means that your rear wheels will look just like mine (except slightly wider on the inside)

well the front on yours is:The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 14mm MOREThe outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 40mmthe front may be flush. (same witdth)

[rebelgtp]

i'm looking to get a set of these for my s13 aswell. however i would like to get a more flush mount (not a big fan of the sticking out). anyone have an idea of what offset to get to get them more flush?
