Going 19s on s13 coupe

Hey I'm going 19 inch Work S1 2 piece, just wondering what offset I need and what would I need to modify to fit beside going widebody. I'll roll my fenders, but I don't want the flares. I'm also running 300zx brake setup all around. Please any help appreciated and pics also.

Also what tires do I need to use? I prefer 225-235 front and 245 rear. Do you guys think it will fit?

with my limited knowledge of wheels and such, i know that you need to get a +20 offset or lower, otherwise the wheels will not clear ur front struts when you turn them. as for rear wheels +35 fit fine.

if u want to tuck the wheels u need to roll the fenders, cuz they're wider than the fenders.

tire size depends on how wide ur wheel is. im running 225's on a 8 inch in front, and 275's on 10"s on the rear. for an 8 inch, 225 is the widest ud want to go. anything past that will bulge over the lip.

hope that helps. feel free to correct me if im wrong about anything.

we need to know the width in order to give a proper offset, we can't just say a +25 or -10 or what ever, it all depends on width.

That's what I need to know. I don't know what width will be good to do the 19's for my s13 coupe.

If you getting 19, might as well get wider fenders and do 9.5 on the front and 10.5 on the back +0 offset. Now thats a phat lip!

I'd say 9" rear 235-245's and 8" front 215-225's to be safe.

So if going 19s with my s13 coupe, will I still get the fat lips on the rims since I don't want to go wide fenders and depending on offset?

wow okay listen just because its 19 does not mean that you will be getting a nice fat lip.

diameter has nothing to do with width.

YOU WANT A FAT LIP but you have no idea what it takes.

what suspension are you running?

FAT lip = LOTS OF CAMBER & STRECHED TIRE or over fender.

I hope you have 5 lug thats the only thing its available in, oh and alot of money cuz there about 800-1000 per wheel.

BUY this spec.

FRONT = 19 x 9.5 -10
REAR = 19 x 10 -22

then you will have a HUGE LIP that you want so much.
