I think the answer to your dilemma is in these three pages of this tread, 240kid4 has your same car with the same rim measurements.

Still need more, here are two good threads I used to make my decision on rims and tires:

Good news!With coilovers, the rears do not need any spacers!Less good, but still good = With coilovers the fitment is identical to OEM fitment in the front, so a 5 mm spacer will be needed, as there already seems to be enough room for the 300ZX calipers. More updates to come, for now... pix!

Sil80drifter, the back sticks out from the fender more than I expected for a 9.5 with 35 offset. To confirm, you have no spacers in the back?

Hey,Well here is the thing. when I bought these I was under impression they were 15 offset. I guess they changed the description, because the same wheels on ebay are now listed as 35 offset. This would explain any rubbing iossues up front (and back too), as stock is 43 (or 40 don't remember), and this is only 5-8 mm more out. Also on the back of the wheel "35" is written, in the same fashion as their width and maxiumm load, so I guess they are in fact 35 offset.

And yes, there are no spacers in the back. The wheel is 9.5" inches vs 6", and the offset is more outward to the wheel well, what did you expect. Also NOTICE that the car is still suspended, so the wheel did not tuck in as it would when you actually put the car on the ground. I will post pix of the car on the ground and the 300ZX brake clearance when I have it all together. It shoudl be a lot more snug to the fender, although I believe I still may have to roll the rear fender for better clearance, and the front one for sure.

So to sum up, in the rear I do NOT have spacers, the wheels fits well with coilovers but NOT with stock suspension, and I MAY have to roll the fenders.

In the front I WILL have a spacer (currently estimated at 5mm), and will HAVE to roll the fenders to make it fit.

Sup Xhimsa, i got the same exact s14 and color.Did you have to put 10mm spacers in the fron for clearence? What are your rubber sizes? Plan to paint the car? It seems like you don't have much space from the ground if you lower it some, is that the case (especially if you have a body kit)?

Thanks,Mig240sx

Looks really good. I'm going for the red/blkack theme with my red car and black roof/black tail lights. Maybe CF hood eventually.... Btw, the red on the 006's is more of a candy apple red than the s13 blood-red, so the match isn't perfect... Maybe if the paint wasn't 17 years old... Ugh, I just realized my car is 17 years old... f***... *sigh*
