S13 Wheel offset?

Post by Twakkie »

Does anyone know the wheel specs for a rim to fit on a S13? i thinks its 4/114 pcd but then it's got a funny offset? i want to fit 17's what is a good offset for the rim (so that it sits neatly)

depends on the width of the rim and how flush you want it to sit. but around et25 is what you would want for a flush'ish fitment.

For reference here is a pic of my old wheels 7J et35, not the best photo or angle though.

Bwhahahahahaha!!! Looking like a Mexican!!! Hahaha i haven't laughed like that since i was a little girl.

Mkay so between ET25 and ET35 which sits deeper? and would anyone recommend fitting 18's? or might that cause difficulties, i have adjustable coil overs.

17" and lower to look good also use 45 profile tyre

the more + offset the more wheel goes in
the closer you go to 0 and neg offset the more it sits to the out side
