What wheels and offset do you run?

[nonvtecaccord]

I'm looking into buying some wheels for my hatch and I can't figure out which ones to buy. So i'm curious what wheels and offsets does everybody run. Post a pick of your car if you want. I'm looking for a simple 5 spoke wheel. I like these but can't figure out what offset they are.



I'm also thinking of the 16inch skyline gts wheels.

skyline wheels like these.

Those bronze ones look like FN-01RCs, probably at least 9" in the rear, if not wider, with a pretty low offset (hence that "sunken dish" look).

The FN's on that S13 are 17"x10". The 17"x10" FNs are the only ones with the sunken look. The 18"x9.5" FNs are sunken a little too, but not like the 17"x10"s. Wheel choice depends on what you want out of the wheels. Just looks? Performance? Lighter weight? All these things need to be thought about. On an S13, your limiting factor will be the 4 lug pattern.

my s13 will be a 5 lug soon, i'm going with a 5 lug wheel.

I will be drag racing alot since I live right next to a track, so i'm going for performance and looks.

[upSLIDEdown]

I would go with a 17x8+25 and 17x9+35 That way you'll clear coilovers and also be able to run decent width tires on them (not have to stretch them) since you'll be drag racing, you'll want as much tire under the back as possible. You should be able to run a 225 or 235 up front and 245 or 255 out back.Bryan

Come ask this question in out Tire/Wheel forum.

This scenario is asked about 4 times each week.
