Hey, i wnated to put these 17x10s on the back of my S14 240sx, the fenders are rolled already, so i wanted to fill up all that extra space well, is anyone running these, or have a good idea of how the fitment would be?
Photobucket is down right now, but ne ideas or pictures of similar size wheels on a s14 would be very helpfull
New Fn01rc in 17x10 with a +12 Offset
Re: (BomexS13)
How much are those? You think they'll fit w/ coilovers?
Bomex, are your fenders custom rolled or what are they?

10" with a +45 fits in the rear...there is TONS of coilover clearance.
If you have stock fenders and want to run a 255 or bigger tire...then you need to get a +35 for a 10" wheel. The +12 is great for stretched tire and tons of camber (drift look), but not for adding meaty tires to the rear of our 240.
17X9, +35 with a 255/40-17 reqires a slight roll on an S13 with -1 to -1.5 camber.
Adding 12mm to each side of the rim (10" rim width), then pushing it out further by reducing the offset to +12 - you now pushed it out an INCH further.
If you like -3 camber and a 215 tire on a 10" wheel...go for it.
If you want a flush look with decent sized tires, then get the +35.
Obviously, pulled fenders and flares change this considerably...but for stock body with a roll...keep it reasonable.

Re: (:: orion ::)
Now where to find those dems in a decent looking super light rim in four lug? What is average camber on the rear? Would a 17x8.5 be a bit better on fender clearance? Is the fender the only rubbing issue? No other contact with the frame ever?:: orion :: wrote:17X9, +35 with a 255/40-17 reqires a slight roll on an S13 with -1 to -1.5 camber.
