Wheel Fitment question

[BurnsAuto90]

ok guys, im a noob when it comes to wheel sizing...but I DID SO SOME SEARCHING.

im lookin at a set of wheels right now, and im pretty sure they wont fit without wider fenders in the front, and a serious pull/over fenders in the rear. I just wanted to double check with you guys.

sizes:

F:17x8 +28R:17x9 +38

i wouldnt mind doing a pull on the back, but i dont feel like getting into it with overfenders, etc.

any info would greatly be appreciated.

hey man, thanks for the info. im still trying to get the basics for wheels sizing and fitment. I think i typed in the offsets backwards. rear were +28 and the front were +38. Its a set of Blitz Z2's i planned on putting on my s13.

any tips you could give me when im looking at a set of wheels would be awesome.

I'll offer a little more conservative perspective compared to yoko (he absolutely knows what he's talking about though).

So you mean they'reF:17x8 +38R:17x9 +28??

If so, the fronts are too high for any S-chassis car, the rears aren't too bad. But from what I've seen on cars/read you'd want to run17x8 +15-ish17x9 +20-ish

I'd recommend you find some examples of the "amount of flush" you're looking for, so people know how far you want to push it.

Here is 17x9+20 with 235/40s and -1.8 degrees camber. My front fenders are rolled and pulled a bit.



Yours would stick out 15mm farther.

HERE comes the spoon train...cho cho

this is what 16x8 0 offset looks like. you know if you add a 15mm spacer that would put it to 16x8 -15 offset as in Negative (same specs as the Precedeo Demon Camber Wheels).

btw you should checkout the FAQ stickies. that should clear your confusion..

anyways... heres a few pics for ideas...

size is 18x11 +18 in the rear w/ 285; 18x10 +18 up front w/ 265



as you can see... the rears are pulled, the fronts are just rolled flat

The 17x9's aren't concaved, this is what they look like.



If you want concaved, check out the 16x8 +10 Rota Grids.

17x8+8 front and rear. not bad for no fender mods (cept a roll)

I searched for threads with offset in the title in the wheels/tires subforum
