Ok, just talked to 5Zigen.

We have to hit a target number of total wheels being sold.

As easy as that sounds with the amount of interest so far there is a catch:

1. Wheel lead times are 2-3 Months (60-90 days)2. We can choose only 1 color3. We can choose only 1 size / offset

This is unless we have enough interest to warrant two different wheel sizes / offsets.

Given enough orders we will be extending special pricing on these wheels!

I am also asking that all of you interested tell your friends, and post the link to this thread in other forums. This will help to get this done faster!

PLEASE only vote if you are truely interested within the 2-3 month time frame. If we are to keep this special fitment alive then we will need to show 5Zigen that we want it!

+15 and +35 both fit the S14 well ... +35 if you want easy fender fitment with a wide tire.

$199 per wheel shipped.

It's normal pricing, however pricing could change.

i wish they made a 15x8 or a 15xwider than eight in a 4 lug w/ good offset. bigger wheels need bigger more expensive tires to put on them. i like the small cheap tires.

15x8 in the 4 lug with a +35 would be the f-ing hotness

Common guys! We need this available for the us poor 4 lug 240's...i'm not the only one whose kept back from getting rims cause they can't afford to buy rims/tires and do a 5 lug swap all the same time...then while your at it you just might as well do the 300zx brake upgrade and next thing you know you need 2-3g's to have anything more than a 7" wheel...sigh...

So bump, and VOTE!!!

I think these should be sized for the S13, since most S14s already have 5 lug and MANY available wheel options, where as most S13s are 4 lug and the wheels choices suck.

I'd be down for whatever size best fits the S13 flush with KTS Coils without having to put negative camber in. I don't mind rolling the fenders, but I don't want to have to run spacers or negative camber to eat up the inside edge of my tires.

Oh yeah, I would buy them today if they were available.

umm.. the reason is that +15 fits flusher and better than +35..

you don't need to get a fatter tire for it to look flush...

I'm feeling too lazy to search this, but will these wheels in 17x9 +15 (or +35) fit an S13 on all four corners with room for coilovers? If any, what sort of extra modding would I have to do (fender rolling, spacers...)? Thanks.

Another.

I have the 17x8 +35 right now. I haven't got them on because I need a 25mm spacer to clear coilovers. the 17x9 +35 would require around 40-50mm spacer to clear coilovers, if I'm thinking correctly.

Therefore, definately need +15. Still gonna have to run some spacer on that, but not as much.

17x9 +35 would need a 20mm spacer to clear coilovers, and the +35 is a 10mm spacer, after that it's up to your camber settings and a number of other setup related issues like tires and what kind of suspension you have.

I am leaning more towards the 17x9 +35 just because you can use a spacer (cheaper than 5-lug!) to push the wheel out however far you wanted it rather than being stuck with a +15 and having to roll the fender.

I don't have coilovers, will i still need spacers with the +35? If so count me out and another one for the +15 cause i'd rather roll my fender than run spacers...plus flush is always better...

see... my point exactly...

I would rather get a 5mm spacer to push it out more and roll the fender rather than get a 20-40mm bolt on spacer... that looks nasty too...

people... get 17x9 +15... you will not regret it!!!

So your i'd have to bolt on a spacer? Why did no one mention this? I'm sure as hell not interested in that! For me it's gonna have to be +15 or nothing...
