hey guys i have a maroon 91' se HB.

Right now im running NISMO R6s 16x7 +38. and im really thinkin about getting ADVAN SA3s 16x8 +32. polished lip with white spokes.

so my question is, and the opinion that im looking for is. do you guys think it would look good if i get he ADVANs and re-finish the white spokes gold. would the gold look nice and offset the maroon of my car?

thanks for your opinion.

oh the color will look great, too bad those sizes are complete garbage and the wheels themselves are not of a great design. oh they look good, until they taco (very easily) and they are pretty heavy. if you are set on these wheels, at least look for 17x9 +10 or better.

those are amazing sizes for autox/racing events. very practical. they will look a little sunken unless you run like 245 tires.

i love the wheels, color would be good, but like ayuaddict said the sizes are pretty weak.

KAMAKAZI 13

hmm the size ic.

what about some WATANABE 16x7 +25 F 16x7.5 +19 R? is the sizing better to run?

motegineon

better but no, tell me what size wheels you want to run and ill tell you what offset would be good

for the 16x7 you need like -10ish for the front and 16x7.5 like -10 to -15ish as well...of course you can go more aggresive depending on how much your willing to fit your car to the wheels...

im planning to keep it in the 16s (just like the style better) and up the width.

my friend told me he ran 16x7 +25 all around then they were pretty flush.

how would WATANABEs look on a 13?

Ayuaddict

tire size makes a noticable difference as well, for example, 15x8 offset 0 with 205/50/15 sit pretty flush on a S13. since it seems you like 16x7-8 look for something around -10 to +10 offset. it would also help to mention the main purpose of this car. like silviaks2nr said, 16x8 +32 is a pretty good for daily driver/auto x, you will never have to worry about rubbing and you will have pretty much infinite camber adjustability.

Watanabe's rock

hmmm ic ic.

sorry about not mentioning what im using the car for. daily driver, canyons, and auto x.

so 16x8 +32 is sounding like the right choice?

Bryan

It's a safe choice that gives you alot of adjustablity since you don't really have to make the wheel fit, like you would have to do with a more dramatic size.

16x8 +32 is very performance oriented. it will feel very balanced around corners with good weight shift. as i said before this is an amazing auto-x setup

thanks for all of the input guys.

then im going for the ADVAN SA3s.

so just forget about the WATANABEs then?

do you guys suggest spacers (appearance wise?) and if so what size?

or might that thorw off the balance of the car?

Ayuaddict

just run the wheels with no spacers for now and use the money on decent tires.
