Proper S14 wheel fitment

[ZenkiAlec]

Hello all, I have a 1995 Nissan 240sx. I recently bought wheels with +45 offset, and they are obviously sunk into the wheel well. I kinda would like the wheels to be more flush with the fenders. I've been looking at bolt on spacers, but I'm not sure what size to get? Maybe 30mm? Please Help?

Thanks, - Alec

what size is the wheel? what width is the wheel? ....... go to http://www.rimtuck.com and search for yur car, they have a ton of 240sx wheel set-ups with pictures and all the info you need.

I've tried rimtuck, but they don't have my size. The wheel size is 17 x 7, +45 offset.

heres a trick someone taught me once.... buy a whole bunch of washers and put them on yur hub before you put yur wheel on. kind of like a faux-spacer.... add or subtract washers untill the wheel sticks out towards the fender until you think it looks good BUT DONT DRIVE WITH THE WASHERS ON OBVIOUSLY.... then take the stacked washers off and measure them and they will tell you what size spacer you need..... but in all honesty 17X7 is too small for s14's. it'll never look flush with that wheel size, especially that offset.... you're gonna end up buying like a 30mm bolt-on spacer...

Yeah, I was kinda stupid for buying that size :/ But that's a great idea thanks, I'll try it out!
