so i'm currently running Work Equip 18x9 +5 front, and 18x10 +4 rear, and tucking tire all around, stock body with a roll, no pull.

i've recently got the opportunity to sell the current set, and pick up a set of Equip 18x10 -3 front, and 18x13 -3 rears.

obviously, I'll have to run over fenders, that's no issue, been eyeballing the Origin Type II 50mms for a while now anyways, to drop my -4* rear camber to -.5*... most likely, I'm assuming I'll have to run at least a 20mm front fender.

so what my question is, besides the 50mm overs, what would be a good tire size, and camber setting to run for the front and rear? if it's something that will reqire WAY too much, then i'll just post up on my current set (i kinda like the style better anyways, chrome face, gold rivets and valve stems, and polished lips vs the silver face, polished rivets, and polished lips).


also, i know there's a fitment guide with a list of various sizes, and pics of them on a car, for some odd reason i can't find the link, so if anyone can post it, that'd be nice.

That's a pretty extreme setup! If you run 50mm overs on the rear, you're going to have to cut your fenders, though. So your first question should be whether you want to take a plasma cutter to an otherwise unmolested S14. :)

Check out the Wheel & Tire forum for the stickies that will help you get a better idea of the kind of fitment options you can run with.
