I'm just wondering how a black 95 S14 would look with these wheels

The ones I'm looking at are

Front18x9+38 Offset

Rear18x9 +9 Offset

I was told they wouldnt clear and I would have to run spacers, which I already have waiting to go on once I get studs.

Also what size tire would I have to run for a slight stretch? I read something like215/45/18 Rear215/40/18 Front

maybe it was 40 and 35 sidewalls.

for a slight stretch? id go for like a 225 or something. but s14s have larger wheel wheels, and a bigger stock tire size than an s13 so you should be able to have more rubber than that.

the offset for the front is WAY lame. the rears sound alright, the setup as a whole is somewhat iffy.

pictures of said black 95?

baller!

For tires, I would think 225/40 would be a fair stretch. The wheels sound like they will clear....maybe.

Wow that got moved fast, I was hoping for more model specific answers in the 240sx section.

Anyways, yeah I would be running spacers, apparently they have to so they would clear. So the fronts should be +30 or lower.

And yeah I think those specs are more just general. My last wheel/tire setup had 225/50/17 tires and they cleared... Barely.

Most recent pictures I have

It will be lower come spring, those are from fall when I was debating selling it.

Toss on some 30mm spacers up front, and you've got decent fitment on your 14. Good part about tossing on spacers is that you can probably now run a larger caliper setup as well (I've seen a lot of old school vip wheel setups similar to this, where they have a huge offset in the front and low in the rear, spacers highly recommended or come with)
