Hah, Matej's car IS my inspiration. I'm just really iffy on having a -15 9.5J (though it looks SICK). I'm not trying to pull my fenders. Test fitment already pokes them out so I'm gonna run 225/40 in the back with a roll and a bit of camber.turbo2nr wrote:little inspiration:
Also there is no reason to not pull your fenders, you're going to end up with quite a bit of camber in rear and not much in front to fit that.KA_Pig wrote:Hah, Matej's car IS my inspiration.

Are you just telling us that you got new wheels and spacers?
I already got a pair of 5's for just in case.nismofly wrote:You should've gotten more spacer for front, rear will look good but front should have 5-10mm more, maybe throw a sandwich on your bolt-ons for that little extra bit.
I'll see how I feel about it in the spring when I put them on.nismofly wrote:Also there is no reason to not pull your fenders, you're going to end up with quite a bit of camber in rear and not much in front to fit that.
****ty wheels with spacers to make them fit worse.KA_Pig wrote:Thoughts ?
because they don't make them in an any lower offset set up.OutToWinPAHC wrote:So why buy wheels new and need to use spacers, what about get getting a pair the fits right the first time?
Thank you. I was so confused!adrians_s13 wrote:because they don't make them in an any lower offset set up.
I believe the original size is 17x9+35 18x9.5+35. Adding the 20mm up front and 25mm in the rears makes it effectively "+15" and "+10"...
even though the thread title is a bit deceiving

And that's about as far as that goes. Unsprung weight FTL.turbo2nr wrote:sportmaxx can look good lol
They already need at least a 7mm spacer (iirc) to clear coilovers so I said fuggit and got larger ones ? Oh yeah, nice konigs in your sig.OutToWinPAHC wrote:So why buy wheels new and need to use spacers, what about get getting a pair the fits right the first time?

And I took the plunge to buy them. For the price of one new work wheel, I can replace all four XXR's.simmode1 wrote:

I get tempted to buy a set everytime I see someone that manages to get them fitting right...
Sky high?? sure, Its lowered to the point where it just barely makes it up on an alignment rack, and makes it over the entrance to my apartment complex by about a centimeter. Why would I want it any lower?KA_Pig wrote:Lmfao, my dude look at your car:http://nissaninfiniticlub.net/...t.jpgh ... t/...d.JPG
Says the guy with stock alloy's and nosebleed ride height. What, you think you're all big because you have SPL tension rods and you autocross ? Go suck a d!ck. (no offense lol)
EDIT....i saw it . I also prefer my stock SEs to said upgrade. But, in the end its the OPs car and its up to him. And yes, group hug time and I do want to see install pics.Red coupe wrote:Sky high?? sure, Its lowered to the point where it just barely makes it up on an alignment rack, and makes it over the entrance to my apartment complex by about a centimeter.

I would rather have stock wheels then heavier ebay nock offs that stick out of the screwing car so I can impress highschool kids. Stupid offsets to mess with steering and over sized to make any decent tires $20 more each. At least I am not paying to make my car look stupid while having to buy more expensive tires and doing stupid things to my cars scrub radius.
Me suck a d!ck? Your the one with the fanboy c*** in your mouth.
Awwwwwwwwww, look ! The anti-conformist 240 owner got butthurt ! Would you like a hug now ? Question, what wheels do mine "nock off" of ? Oh, that five spoke wheel over there ? Oh, I see. BTW, for the price of the same 15" tires my friend got on his honda (where 15"s belong), I bought the same for $10 a tire more and I have 17/18.Red coupe wrote:Sky high?? sure, Its lowered to the point where it just barely makes it up on an alignment rack, and makes it over the entrance to my apartment complex by about a centimeter.

Thank you for calling every good looking S13 stupid, BTW. It seems you are the only person that prefers the sunken-battleship-15"-nosebleed look.
Don't cry, it's just the internet.
*****, relax. I made ONE jab at you for having Konigs and you're the one that took it to heart. I answered your question, yes and took a small jab at you, yes. I know you already have a beast motor under there and would never hold Konigs against that. My comments were directed towards Red Coupe. I take people's opinions (especially from this forum) with a grain of salt.OutToWinPAHC wrote:Dude it was a simple question, I didn't pay for those nor say hey look at those. If you knew anything about my car you would know they are only on because I went to 5 lug when doing the brake swap and needed something to make it moveable.
But for real who buys wheels NEW and needs spacers. You were better off just getting something that would first first off. So instead you show everyone looking for praise and opinion and when people ask why or give opinion yourbitch up. Don't be such a little girl and clean that sand out of your vagina.
