S13 with Silvia front 18x9.5 20+ All around?
 
I have a s13 coupe with 5 lug conversion, z32 calipers, kyb shocks and drop springs.
I’m getting ready to throw some rims on my car and I came across a set but im still not sure if the fronts will clear.
The setup consists of 18x9.5 20+ front and rear wheels with a 265/35 ZR18 tire setup. I know for sure that the rears fit no prob, the fronts cleared the z32 calipers and left small space between tire and shock plus they stick out but maybe it’s the tire setup.
They still have not passed the on the road test. Any one has any feedback on the whole situation?

run a 235/40/18 tire up front and then thrown on some camber plates. the camber plate will allow you to get the rim to tuck more easily. the stretched tire allows you to get extra clearance. hammer the inner fender lip flat to gain maximum room. good luck!

is there any rubber around the actual wheel?

it might fit, but wont clear coilvers, and will look completely terrible.
buy coilovers instead of wheels.

Do not buy 18s and have it semi 4x4-ing. Get coils first and then decide. I'm pretty sure that they will not clear coils either.

^ staggered looks lame! (no offense)


18s? why do you want to go so big?
