no Idea man, but I did just read about that car in a magazine. Did you happen to see the RX-7 with a SR20det in it? The guy calls it SRX-1, classic...

I have seen 265's on an s14 with a huge spacer, I had 255 on my car with an average spacer.

If you get the right offset and tire size you can fit 8.5"-9" in the front and 10"-10.5" in the rear. You MIGHT have to roll/flare the fenders if you dont have the right camber

I know that 17x8 and 17x9 are perfect for the S14, and they are prolly really good for the S13 as well.

BTW, offsets for perfect fit:

F - +27
R - +35

I kinda like Russ's look.

18x9 +19 all around.

Keep in mind, he has wide fenders up front and a LOT of negative camber.

If that guy has that much negative camber to fit his rims, wont that ruin his tread? I'm pretty sure, and please correct me if im wrong, that if you have too much negative/positive camber, you get uneven wear on the tires. I'm probably wrong, so i guess my answer is a question..

If you got the right offset and tire size, you shouldnt have a problem

It does rub, but only rubs the inner plastic lining. He's about to get smaller tires. Those are like 245/40/18 that came off of an R34 Skyline. He got a STEAL in those wheels. 18x9 Volk CV-Pro (3 piece) with Bridgestone runflat tires.

And, yes, over a period of time, you can get irregular wear on the inside 1/2 of the tire from running too much negative camber.

Re: what offset on pic

DAMN, is that a 3000GT?? WOW!! I'm impressed. I didn't even realized that 3000GTs can be that modded out. cool. makes me kinda regret selling my VR-4. But oh well. I'm pretty sure it cost that dude a butt-load to get it that modded. Especially if it's a VR-4. But where did you guys "read" about that car from? I wanna read about it and the RX-7 with an SR20....
