It really depends on how much of a stretch you want.

I would personally run something along the lines of; 235/45 Front255/40 Rear

If you really wanted to strech 'em;225/45 F245/40 R

Those are some bad *** wheels. I know these pictures don't do that finish justice.

since you want a stretch, id say go with the 235/255 combo whiterps mentioned

personally id be crazy and run like 255/275, or 275/295, but thats just me

sweet wheels though, howd you get them?

ive always wondered how people get good sized enkeis, because their north american site has all the 17x7 +40 etc etc sizes

225/245 would be pretty retarded. 235/255 would be ok, but both setups would be sunken in.

IMO, 17x9+20 is perfect flush for s13s with like a 225.

Because you have overs, I would say go with 245/265.

It will still have a stretched look, and will fill the fenders better.

oh i missed the part where you said you had overs...yeah id run wider still then

and yes, you will need spacers to be flush with overs, just how much youll have to see when you get everything together

will i have to run longer studs for maybe a 10mm spacer or will stuck studs handle them.

Stock studs are really short. In my opinion, they can only safely handle a 3mm spacer. You would need 10mm extended studs.

Either way, a 10mm spacer won't really help push wheels outwards much. They are only good for find adjustments in fitment when people are trying to bet their wheels to be really flush.
