It just got G@yed!

So, i just did the front swap (z32 brakes on my S13)and Now the rims don't clear.

Im running 300zx rims on the s13. And apparently, the tires are 225/55/16 front and rear.

The front rims (tires) is rubbing against the front s13 shocks. Has anyone used Z32 rims after doing the 5 lug/and big brake swap?I thikn 205/50/16 or 205/55/16 tires would clear.Can I get confirmation?

I put a 3mm spacer on but still rubs. I am thinking of 12mm or 1/2" spacers or New 205 tires.

Can someone post a picture of the Z32 N/A rims on the S13 and the tires size please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

225/55?? Z32'z run 225/50/16 all around. I'd start there. Depending on whether you got your Z32 alloys from a twin turbo or not, the offset is different front-to-rear on the TT's at least. I'd first take care of the tires since they are wrong. You could get away putting 215/50/16's, although i think that size is kind of uncommon. I run 225/50/16 on SSR 7.5's on the front and have no issues at at all.

fyi: rim = edge of wheel.

Yeah,

I think it's 255/50.

my mistake.

If the tires were the same width as the rim, then this wouldn't happen.THe tires on the rims right now are pertruding out a little.

Hey, Will 95+ 240sx SE rims clear?

are they 16x7 all around?

I might pick a set up for $150.

thanks.
