It also depends on how much you want to spend on rims but if money is not an option I would go with this set-up:

17X9 -18 offset for the fronts17X10 or 17X11 -20 offset for the rears

18X9 -18 offset for the fronts18X10 or 18X11 -20 offset for the rears

But if you are going to get Sport Max rims, I dont think they carry sizes like these. I think sportmax might have 17X8's with like a +35 offset and a 17X9.5 or 10 +43 offset and vice versa for 18's. But if you are going to put over fenders in the rear and extended fenders in the front I wouldn't go cheap on rims. Note: with those negative offsets you are going to get Gangster Lips on your rims.

what company makes rims that will fit the 4 lug pattern and have that size and off set

[tramp_drift240]

just about no-one.

you should get some five lug hubs to install before you try to get this gangsta stance.

youre supposed to pick the wheels, then make them fit under the car. and make sure its lowered somewhat...stock ride height vehicles with wide body stuff or sweet wheels look dramatically worse than lowered.

[SlidinSideWayzSR]

ca is lowered 2" and theres no where that sells 4 lug with those sizes

[tramp_drift240]

ca = car?

not really, most of the crazy offset wheels come in five lug, 5x114.3 pattern.

youd be doing yourself a favor by picking up a set of 5 lug hubs off of a 300zx or an s14 so you can have more wheel variety to choose from.

otherwise, your car's gonna look like crap since you're getting big overfenders for not-so-impressive wheels.

@ this thread. I haven't seen any sportmaxes over 9" wide, nor any 4 lug wheels that would be flush with that setup. If you REALY want to make it happen, go five lug first, and then prepare to shell out some major cashiola for wheels that will fit.

[Jgrand03]

you could always try looking for dual bolt pattern (4 and 5 lug) they have them on rbwheels.com all the time sometimes some good sizes come accross but for the most part your gonna need to man up and go 5 lug

actually, Matej's s13 has 18x9.5's and is still 4 lug.

I didn't know that you still had 4 lugs but if want to keep it 4 lug you could probably go with these wheels ( http://phase2motorsports.store....html ) and maybe put some spacers to make them flush. But if you want a rims with those aggressive offsets and since you have already done a wide body style setup do a 5 lug conversion and go to town with those negative offsets.

show me these wheels, i need some info

EDIT: BAH, if they're the 962's, dont even worry about it.

i dont think those wheels are cool enough for widebody status.

[smocan]

look at my sig.... guess the wheels, and they ARE wider than 9

do 5lug with widebody

[tramp_drift240]

like i said, not cool enough for widebody status.

My bad. Only 0.5 inch wider. But what about the rest of the 2,5 inches?

Let me make it simple - a flush fitment (wheels don't stick out, nor are sunken in) for an S13 would be 17/18 by 9 +22/23ish offset. But since you want 50mm overfenders in rear, and 20mm up front, so the answer is here:lets say you want 9" up front, and 10 in the rear (stagerred set-up):

I will use 17's. If you want flush fitment, here's the solution:17X9+22 is flush with stock fenders. Add 20mm= 17X9+2. But there is no such wheels (unless you get them custom made or you find a pair of like one of a kind.) These are fronts.

For the rears - 50mm overfenders - 17X10-33. Again, there is no such wheels. And i don't think you could get them custom made. Also, the width comes in play. I think you should read a lot about wheel widths and offsets. Good luck.
