Yep they fit perfect in 17x8 +35 17x9 +35, I don't remember if I tried them out before coilovers, but I think I did- and they fit fine

hey 1sikS13,I was just reading your post about "sportmax 006 wheels" and i have the 006 in 17x8 and 17x9 for the rear. are your wheel offsets +35, as seems to be common? and what size tires are you using? any info would be much appreciated!

im having this problem to. i have 18x8.5 +35 offset up front and they will not clear my coils. i would need a 20mm spacer but i can't use a 20mm spacer with studs because my wheels don't have the slots for the spacer. i could put the spacer on but my wheels don't have slots in the back for the wheels to sit flush on the spacer, its just flat and the nuts wouldn't sit. so im very frustrated

I only needed 10mm spacers on my s13, and they didn't have the bolts to secure them to the hub, only extended forged studs, so they fit fine.

no its +35, i originally thought it was +15 but its not. there are a few people here who run this size and it works with a 10mm spacer. thats all you need

I used JIG Magic and TEIN HA equivalent. Most coilovers are the same in terms of wheel fitment, they are about the same size as others.

Alright... after I read the whole thread... this is what I got:

My desired Setup:

Megan Coils All Around

18x8.5 215/4018x9.5 225/40

From what I read I'll need a 5mm (OEM brakes all around) for the front and none for the rear (assumption based on sil80's set up... so 5 will be okay cause you have Z brakes right sil?)

I am actually still debating whether to run the same tire set up as your sil80... the stretch isn't that bad... the 10mm sits flush all around? in 2nd thoughts... didn't you sell your set up? lol

Yeah 5mm should be fine as you can see from the pix. The front rubbed the wheel weight (from balancing) on the coilover, but 5mm outwards should be fine. They may stick out a bit on the outside, but nothing that can't be fixed with some cambering and/or rolling the fender.

well new update i tried a 25mm spacer in the rear now making it +10 all i have to say is baller and you will have to roll you rear and have a stretch on your tires a pull is not required unless you adjust your rear camber i will have pics up soon iam also checking how the 25 will look on the front.

Awesome, since I'll be installing these in the parking lot where I'm buying them (lol) I'll need to be prepared. I'll pick up 5mm spacers for the front and raise the car up a bit until I can get a nice roll/pull.

Did some picture searching too for the 215/40 for the 8.5 and 225/40 on the 9.5 and it isn't a crazy stretch... I think I'll go with that set up. Thanks for the input
