Are you asking if you will be able to clear those wheels/tires with some coilovers? Buy them and try it, if they don't work, give me the coilovers and I'll give you my Tein S-tech/KYB AGX combo that will clear those wheels/tires

lol if I wanted Tein's for my monster truck I'd get them. Apparently only obvious to Ronald McDonald (lol); yes, I want to know if my stock wheels will clear those coilovers. Here's the deal:

Last month I got her...and non running, tow it out of my garage and get it out of my way, with an immaculate interior for the price of free. Completely unmolested S13 with a straight rust free body too. Towed it home, spent a lot of money on getting the single slammer running...then all of the neglected maintanence things (all new belts, vaccum lines, radiator and heater hoses, the list goes on) and other various repairs (power window motor, speedometer, etc. ). Last month I also happened to buy off a 90 N/A Z32 the following:
Front & rear calipers/pads/rotors
5 lug hubs
Uprights

I was going to continue saving my money to get my new wheels/tires, front conversion hubs, Z32 BMC, conversion brake lines, and the coilovers and do it all at once. However the suspension really needs replacing right now so I need to get the coilovers now, and swap all my S13 parts to the Z32 uprights at the same time (so I can just order my Stances with the Z32 lower shock mount and not have to do that later). I'd like to do this before I go back to school (full time student at UF and college eats money as fast as a 240). Then at the end of Jan. or in Feb. when I have enough money I'll complete the swap with the rest of the aforementioned parts. Then by summer's end hopefully forced induction (either SR or KA24DET, undecided).

Geeeeez...fuckin Mr. Clean! I'm not too familiar with those coilovers, but they should deffinitely clear the stockers. You'll have to adjust your wheels choice after you take some measurements with the coilovers.

My car sits alot lower than that on my set-up.

And it rides nice.

I think It will be a while before I decide to switch to coilovers, considering my car is pretty stiff as it is.

I'm sure that the coilovers will clear those wheels. If not, just throw some AutoZone 1/4" spacers on there for $20 be done. I'd be more concerned about running stiff coilover on those tall and soft all-season sidewalls. It's going to be bouncy central with the tire wanting to deflect before the suspension.

I was hoping that wouldn't be a problem, as in hopefully he gets some kind of wheels/tires.
