Hey wats going on everyone? ive been searching religiously for the last couple of days on proper wheel fitment on my s14. in the end offset and all that crap owns me .i want to throw on 17" fn01rc on the whip.. 9s up front, and tens in the rear. i have a decent drop, and tein he's. i use my 240 primarily for grip, and the whole rediculously stretched look doesnt appeal to me all too much. id like a mild stretch, clearance, and if possible.. no fender pulling. id rather not have the wheels stick out past the fenders.. so maybe i should go with 9s in the rear as well? what width wheels, and offset.. would you guys recommend, and what would be required for good fit? my brains hurting.. i cant find anything too useful.. so.. slap me with some knowledge

First off, start in the wheel and tire forums with wheel questions.zeroforum/140

Get a hold of Fusion, hes got FN's in 9/10's on his s14. See what offset hes running. He'll also let you know about what needs to be done to make them fit.zer...43295

I run FN01RC 9F/10R on my S14.

Offsets are +20 front and +25 rear. The +20 is a special order so hopefully you can still get it. I sometimes wish I had +15's p front but oh well.

If you don't want to pull your fenders I say run 9's all the way around, you will need to roll and pull the rears in order to fit 10's. Also my front tires aren't that stretched but they are strectched because 9's won't fit with 245 tires or bigger. Optimum grip tire for a 9/10 set-up is 255 front and 275 rear as that will give you optium width for the given wheel size but like I said unless your car is not getting lowered much you kind of have to stretch or roll and it the back you have to do both.
