Default offset question

i read the offset sticky, but i wanted a visual of what my s13 would look like with a +12 offset all way round with a 17x9 front and a 17x9.5 rear. pics would greatly help, also if there is any rolling or pulling needed

The rear is going to look like a nightmare without really narrow tires, camber, and a pretty good pull.

If you have to ask, you don't need to buy them. I know a 18x9.5 + 30 rear sits pretty nice on a s13, so a +12 your gonna have to do some work.

What epstein said. If you had an S14 it wouldnt be as much of a problem. I would run a 225 up front, 235 out back, or 235 all 4.

If you do pull the rear make sure you slit the inner fenders so they dont cave in.

it will look awesome with a huge pull/roll/stretched tires. and if it doesn't, buy some overfenders.

finally someone asking for a borderline "too low" offset for a change. don't worry about people talking shit. I'd rather see 20 of these questions than "will a +48 fit". at least you're going in the right direction
