Default s13 wheels Questions DOod

does anyone know if you can fit 17x9's on the front of an s13 with coilovers and camberplates.

and what offsets would be flush with 20mm, 30mm and 50mm rear overfenders?

and also what reverse lips are and step lip are.

yes 17x9 will fit up front. Id go with a +5 or a 0 on stock rolled fenders up front with a streched tire like a 225/40. Reverse Lips are the FLAT lip and Step lip is what it sounds like!!! looks like a lil step!! the rear im clueless never delt with widebody before so cant really help you there. im guessing the 20mm you could do a 17x10 +10 (im not sure if they even make a 20mm for the rear??) 30mm id say 17x10 with a 0 and the 50mm u might wanna go to a 10.5" or a 11" rim.....PM streetcivic93 hes a widebody wheel whore and bad97blazer

everything is relative to how aggressive you want the fittment. with that being said...class is in session. for the most part 20/30mm are the front over fenders sizing. there is a company thatll custom make fenders up to 50mm front and 85mm rear but they are about 700 a pair and 4 week wait period. anyways...

on stock fenders you can get away with 17x9 front 17x10 rear. if you stretch the tires like 225 front tire and a 245 rear tire id say you can safely run a 17x9 +20ish 17x10 +20ish and keep your camber in check.

now if your run say a 20mm front fender and a 30mm rear (really common setup) you can +/- 0 offset all around. its still safe you might need a lil camber but not much.

IF YOU STEP UP TO 50MM REARS you better have some super dope balla rims. 50s are what the OG bitchs use to fit their 11 and 12 inch wide rims. or like 18x10 -25

it also helps that your running 17s. you can fit those alot easier since the actual diameter is smaller.

im running 18x8 +20 and 18x9 +20 on my s13 coupe. when i get it running and ride hieght figure out ill post pics.

if you have any questions feel free to PM me or post and ill try my best to help.

Right now I have 15x8 in the front of my car, and they only rub on the fender itself. I did a mild pull on the front fenders to stop the rubbing, and have been fine ever since, although I did have to relocate my harness, hand on for pictures!

In the first picture, you can kind of see where I moved the harness too, and you can also see the width of the wheel.



This picture shows the damage that was caused to the harness. Yes I did do a little repair work to the harness before bolting the fender back up.

im runnin 17x9 0offset w/ 245/40/17 all around, my front fenders are somewhere in the neighborhood of 25 mm over and cambered in all the way it is super flush. The back is rolled and pulled and its hella flush. rubbing on the inside is somewhat of an issue i still have to investigate.
