Aight, I've decided on a wheel. I odn't really care what yall think of my size choise (lots of 16x7 haters out there), I just want to know if you think the offsets will fit right. They are 16x7 +15 in a 4 lug. The *shrug* 'vtec monobloc'. It's a flat 6 spoke design, silver, but I think I am going to get the set powder coated bronze (again, shutty haters, lol). I highly doubt they will clear z32 calipers, but I don't plan on doing that soon anyway, so they'll serve their purpous for a while (I think I'm just going to get crossdrilled oem sized rotors for now)



You think a +15 7" will sit pretty flush for the front and rear? If not, what size spacers do you recomend? And where can I buy good reliable spacers, I don't trust cheapies, and I can't get those through work. I know momo makes good ones, and I heard konig does too, and I also heard that ebay spacers are the suck, but anyhow. Thanks, and no posts hating on 16x7s, lol.

not nearly wide enough your wasting money

shane_lxi

lol, and the trophy goes to?! ^^^^ for doing the very thing I specifically asked not to do . lol, jp man.

I didn't ask if the 7" were wide enough for dorifto, just if they would sit flush, or if htey would frog out. I don't want them sticking out the sides of my wheel wells. I don't race or anything, occassionally I go to the sir, but I don't need to run crazy 10" wheels, not just yet anyways.

^ Dude, you knew it was coming, especially from Cath, lol.

HAHA hey where have you been. Its been a while since i have seen a nice comment like this.

BTW i didnt see the offset anywhere on that pic.

Ya 16x7 -10 is good +15 meh.

Flushness all depends on your set up i.e suspension parts.

i got hoes to take car of, it pulls me away from the intarweb

plus i have been busy prepring or the first drift event in oregon...

^ lol.

They are CHEAP cause it's an offbrand. For me $80 apiece brand new, for anybody else about $99, company discount. Alot of offbrands make medium offset wheels for 4 lugs, but most are like 14"s and 15"s. I dont know if I am going to go with these because I found out today that raybestos makes a loaded caliper for $70 (with the springs and pad clips and everything loaded) and Ik now the calipers will not clear that wheel. I will prolly just get a 17 and slap some spacers on there. Maybe sometime in the future a 5 lug conversion, but it's at the bottom of my list. Now to find a reliable spacer.

necrodomus predicts that catharsis will reply to this comment "There are no reliable spacers, the answer to world hunger is the 5 lug conversion. When all s13's are equipped with the like, AIDS will dissapear, and there will be no ugly women." lol.

Catharsis

if you must get a spacer try www.wheelspacers.com

Would +15 7" wheels be a correct offset for the s13? That's the question, lol.

Catharsis

no

lower

shane_lxi

atleast I will still be settin relatively flush though. The lowest 4 lug offsets I've found are +10 meshies in 15x7, which I actually might buy since I can get them at work for like $150 w/o tires. I am going to get those 16"s though, maybe this week, even though my s13 won't be done for like 3 weeks, lol. Thanks for the help

Catharsis

not really

buy some real wheels that are wider and 5 lug

shane_lxi

^lol. 5lug IS the answer to all life's problems!

A friend has0 offset on his rims and they would sit flush after some fender rolling. Lower offset rims do exist.
