is anyone running spacers on an s14 with 300zx non-turbo wheels? if so what size are you using? i measured mine and i think im close, but i want to make sure my findings are similar. just in case, cause i dont know exactly how far i can go before i run out of wheel stud.

+20...but then again i run G35 rims which i think are about the same width and offset. just bigger diameter.

So you can run 20mm spacer on stock wheels studs??

Thats bolt on spacer territory.

From my experience its not safe to go bigger that 8mm spacer on stock studs.

Oh BTW dont waste money on spacers for Z wheels. Especially if they are gonna be bolt on.

Just get wheels that have good offsets.

thanks. do you think a set of 17x9. (+24 offset), and 17x10.5 (+27 offset) would fit? or would i have to do some fender rolling.

i should have stated that...my bad. i run H & R 20mm bolt on spacers at all four.

btw the reason the Z32 turbo wheels are good is cuz finding a 16" rim with 8" + width is hard. and sometimes running a fatter tire up front makes them rub on coilovers.


and the 17x9 will fit but you again need spacers if you want coilovers in the future. the rears have a ton of space with S14 but flusher the better if you are going for looks. i think that 5zigen is 17x10 with 12 or 15 offset. so maybe a 10mm spacer or so.

rolling your fenders isn't that bad and i think it looks better.

bottombunk

thank you for the input.

If you are going to use a 9" wheel dont go higher that +15 offset. To clear coilovers and look sexy.

bottombunk

so the 17's are a no no then?

Levi SPL S14

no those are bad. weak *** offsets.

bottombunk

thanks. i guess ill just stick to the z wheels for now.
