Alright guys I'm new to this whole widebody thing so help.. i just recently purchased this amazing body kit from a french producer.... but what i need to know is how am i going to get my wheels to match up.. offset... maybe?... i'm not sure what i've got myself into. but should turn out alright... i hope

 

wheel width, offset ... maybe spacers (last resort, you don't want them)

 

Holy crap...looks like NSX-esque... thats gonna take a lot of resin. Good luck...

 

i hope you have a D*MN good bodyshop... becuase that is gonna be a serious project... super low offset and possibly spacers, or custom made wheels

 

the jaquemond kit huh? don't they have wheels on the site you can buy that will sit flush? other than that look and look hard for some good wheels

 

yeah what S13 240 said~ there are wheels out there with negative offsets, and there's nothing wrong with running spacers; plenty of competitive drivers use them. You'll be hard pressed to find spacers of higher quality than H&R too.

 

those stock wheels look a bit sunken in

 

hahaahahaaha...look for rims like 18 x 11 offset 0

well i would research rims by makers such as

WORK
SSR
WATANABE

they gotta be custom ordred though

if cost is a issue heres some relatively cheap low offset wheels

although you have to convert to 5 lug

also check out some used wheel distributors

looks like thats going to be some wide ash wheels you'll be putting in the rear.

 

I've seen that kit and have mixed opinions. I like it in the sense that it's awesome. But I don't like it in the sense that I like the lines of the s13 already and don't wanna change them up much. It's gonna look sweet though when it's done. Like they all said custom wheels are the only way to go. Looks like you've got the cash flow though seeing as how you got that kit and have it put on already, and well done. Be sure to post pics when done.

Edit: I'm a dumbass I didn't see the jaquemond.com watermark, lol. Well that doesn't change anything except maybe the cash flow part, maybe not?. I'm stopping talking now.

 

i love how theres a rusted *** hole through the hatch in that pic

 

^haha i noticed that too

dont cheap out on offset either... that'll just make everything look worse

 

i donno, but you're the first person i ever heard that actually bought that sh*t, the rear looks like sh*t the side not so mucha dn the front is i guess kinda ok but dude ur car aint no mid/rear engine car so y do u even want to pose? well i didn;t mean to flame, but all in all, u got alot of money to throw away, i wish i was rich,,, and yea custom wheels, and they need to be atleast 18 in by 10 with atleast 0 offset,, good luck

 

why is it that same mount on my hatch... the 2nd one over is rusted

 

F*&^K french parts....
