wheel spacer question.

[scruffy63]

ok say I have 50mm rear fenders and 30mm front fenders. could I make my swastikas sit flush with wheel spacers. the specs on the swastikas are 15x6 12 offset.

I don't know how safe it is to stack spacers. for the front I was thinking a 25 and 5. but for the rears I have no idea. also will I have enough threads showing. could I get longer threads?(by that I mean long enough with stacked spacers) or do I just have to bite the bullet and get new wheels. Other than the cost of new wheels I really like my swastikas and would like to keep them If I could make them flush after fenders.

Well since I have seemed to stump all you "nissan people" then answer me this, where can I find 20 or 30mm rear fenders for a s13 coupe.

stacking spacers with long a$$ lugs is the wrong way. if you want to get spacers, get a set of bolt on spacers. they have holes to put your stock lugs through/attach, then new studs sticking out of the spacer. custom sizes available. ive even made them for customers to change bolt pattern as well. better wheels is the other way.

Wow even if ur 15x6 wheels were -60 offset it would still be sunken.

Overfenders = wider wheels. Period.

good call.

well as far as stacking them goes I kinda expected to hear to not do it.the bolt on spacers sound interesting, but how aggressively can i drive with these on? I just don't know how safe I would feel with these. And still I ask, why can't I find a rear fender smaller than 50mm for a coupe? Is there really no market at all for these?

There is no way to accomplish that without being ridiculous, why would you go with

overfenders if you have such small wheels?

[srpowered240sx]

they are safe to drive on. i havent experienced them on a track, or talked to customers that have. but we mount 22s over them, and have had no problems.

I want overfenders to cheat my way out of body work in the rear, but I would get fender eventually anyway.what kind of prices do your spacers go for. Truthfully I will probably just wait and get new wheels.

must be from australiabut anywaysif you do that, i will laugh at you eternally

you sound like your thinking instead of writing. your post is kinda hard to understand. well to me anyway.I was really looking for a 20mm rear fender. but since I can't find that what else would I do other than get what I can get?

if you do that, i will laugh at you eternally

in the long run bigger wheels will be a must. I wanted to finish my body before I got my wheels and I happen to love my swastikas so I considered keeping them. do you really think I wouldn't test fit them to see if they looked good first. that was just for fun.

you cant cheat your way out of doing body work... installing oversized rear fenders is not an easy job like if you were to do the front since it is not just one piece

[yokota180sx]

no its easythe hard part is cutting the wheel well out

its easy to drill holes and rivet the over fender on

at the d1 event i was at, there was about 4 FC's and s13 with 20 to 44mm wheels adapters on the rear so with that being said i think it is ok to drive hard on them i guess, but as fare as quality i think whoever holds it down, and has a good rep thats the spacer you should go with. but i do have a 30mm front fenders with 18x7.5 with a 25mm spacer and i holds good but i had to get a special lug and stud to fit.
