Um, stock offset is 40mm. You don't need spacers anyway. IMHO 17s look nasty on S13s. S14s can get away with it.

They're ADR Sokudo's.

Very delicate, easily damaged. Not worth the $500 after shipping.

what wheel brands do yuou guys suggest for around 600 bucks for 4? i was thinking that if i got the 17's wrapped in low profile tires they wouldnt look too big for my s13 but maybe i'm wrong...do you think 16's would look better?

dude, do you know what you're talking about? a wider wheel retaining a stock offset is no good. you lose inner clearance without gaining any outer. bad idea.

I had a set of ADR's on my SE-R, gunmetal, one weekend of driving and all 4 had chips in the paint, cheap 5hit, took them back and got a set of enkei's, love Discount tire for swapping them out for me though. BTW the enkei's didn't have a chip on them when I sold the car a year later.

i've been looking around on ebay and found alot of the old school ssr mesh rims....they seem to have a little better offset (25-35) and are about in my price range. the only thing is that every car i've seen with them also has a pretty low drop do you think they would look allright without a drop, i judt dont have the money for a set of coilovers or a nice shock/spring setup
