exactly as the title says.http://store.240sxmotoring.com/gr57fors134l.html

I think they'll look pretty good on an s13 but thats me kinda unsure on how the rear will look though.

Wow, those are a lot cheaper than I thought they were. Provided that the 5-lug prices are the same, I might have to gets me some of those....

Rims are baller.. Offset is not.

If you're gonna pay $1500 for a set of rims, you want them to be flush.

17x8 +35 is fine.. i dont think they would label it "for S13 4lug" if it didn't fit nicely

those offsets are weak sauce, for a 17x8 you want somewhere near 0 offset, 17x7, around -10. 57pros come in 17x9+35, slightly better but pretty sunken still. My advice is not to drop that kind of cash for crappy fitment. Dont get me wrong, Gram lights are super pimp, but those sizes are not.

on ur left is a 17x9 35+ and on the right is 17x7 35+



there is nothing wrong with a 35+ offset for the 57pros. and the price is good that is where i got my set. 240sxmotoring is a good place to get parts.

appreciate the pic those look nice i will be definetly be getting a set when i get money. but the ones im getting are a lil different sizes than yours. the fronts are gonna be 17x7+25 and the rear will be 17x8+35 not too much of a difference from yours. but either way i hope they look about the same.

yes there is a reason. i had 17x7 in the front before i bought thease rims and the front tire was rubbing up against my washer fluid bottle. so i didn't want to go bigger in the front b\c of that. and i like the deep dish look in the back.

89SilFourtysSR, what size tires are you running on those wheels and hows the clearance on the suspension side?

i was thinking about getting these wheels myself but i just cant' figure out what size to get. i want a 17x9+ and i want to fill a widebody nicely on my s13.
