PBM spacers are 90$ for a pair of 25mm 4 lug. Ill order a pair tomorrow, when I put money in. Unless I can find a cheap used set local.

 

He started it, I finished it. Got tired of his many fly-bys.

 

for that big id go bolt on, just in case you didnt know that.

 

I just want to address this directly, since I've run wheels very close to this size on that chassis.

Those 17x9 +30 rears do not require a pull. What that guy has is completely unnecessary, especially with his narrow 225-looking rears. I ran a 17x9 +35 rear on an S14 subframe which addes 5mm/side effectively giving me the same rim to body clearance. I ran 255/40's on there with only a lip roll and 1.8* of camber with no rubbing.

Those fronts are definitely on spacers. I ran 17x8.5+30's on JIC FLT-A1's (which are known to have a TON of clearance) and there was only 2-3mm of clearance with a 225. But it did rub due to tire deflection. It was also sunken battleship. I ran 10mm spacers with the 225's on completely stock fenders to flush it up. I also ran it with 15mm at one point when my 10's were on loan, which was still a mild fitment. Nowhere in these numbers would a 9+30 fit on coilovers. I think the JIC's run a 50mm ID spring. I later used 2.5" (63mm) I springs on a different setup and they were huge compared to the JIC assemblies, and ate up all my clearance.

Not arguing just for the sake, just sayin... I don't run crazy shit and my setups never have impressive numbers. I'm on 17x9 +22 all around on my S14 with 245/40's right now. That's hella weak by LOLOMGZILVIA standards, but I like it, and you'd approve, too.

 

Oh hey, I was just going to post that fact.

Annnnnnd I too sold my wheels to a guy not from here; Texas actually.

And all my A/C stuff is back in the car. I just need to flush the system then charge it and pray it works.

 

The fronts on that car being on spacers doesnt surprise me, however the rears, with a 255 (still a bit small for a 9" wheel) are going to get into it with the quarter panel if you hit any decent bumps.

I also really dont see how you ended up with a 8.5+30 being sunken, when thats going to be 7mm closer to the outside of the car, than tims old R32 16x8+30's, unless by sunken, you mean able to have the suspension compressed and not cut the tire with the fender.

 

255 is the correct size tire for a 9" wheel.

255-40-17 NT05 on a 17x9 +15, which is 3/10 of an inch smaller than an RT615



And I dont scrape or rub or have any issues what so ever.

 

Explain that 255 thing to all the corvettes, camaros, firebirds, and likely mustangs that came factory with 275-285's on 9-9.5's.

Your offset doesnt apply to an S13, which was the original question, what would fit on stock bodied S13.

 

So you are comparing cars that are 400-800lbs heavier? Sweet!

And that picture is for your issues with fitment or what ever. And similar tp what his set up would be like with the spacers suggested.

 

And with different width bodies, and OEM fenderwells !






Go figure...

And that picture has nothing to do with how the same would fit on his car, again he has an S13, the widths are different, just looking at an S13 with S14SE's is a clear enough example, they are hiding on an S14 in the back of the fenderwell, and not nearly as far inward on an S13
