Hey guys, fyi I tried searching, because it seems like this should have definitely been covered before, but to no avail. So here is my question, will 17x9's +35 (all around) with 225 45 17 in the rear and 215 45 17 in the front fit a stock s13 suspension or will there be significant rubbing/clearance issues? I will be getting coilovers in the future and know I will need a 15mm spacer in the front (for coils) but have no idea about the stock suspension. Sorry if this has been covered already. Thanks in advance for the help. -John

I dont suppose you could get the wheels in the correct offset to begin with? Not trying to be sarcastic or anything I just dont like the concept of a spacer when the correct size/offset is available. Also I submit this for your consideration: 235/40 front and 245/40 rear.

Yeah, I got the wheels for a bargin so I had to settle for these offsets, but they should sit pretty flush anyways. As for the tires, I like the streched look (plus I already have the tires). But anyways, any ideas if this setup will even fit on a stock suspension? thanks again. -John
