just get the wheels you want and find a way to make em fit. youve got an s14 so id go with bigger, no need to ask whats the widest i can go, youll find a way to make any size fit.

Or these will become your best friends

I have 17x10 +15 in the rear and I had to roll my fenders (easy to do) with a broomstick. In the front I have 17x9 +12 and with no fender rolling.

I don't understand why people are so against rolling their fenders....you can't even really see it if you're standing next to the car. Unless people are getting pulling confused with rolling, I don't see what the deal is really...

maybe they like the horizontal piece of un-rolled fender.

maybe they are homosexual.

Roll=greatness

If I was getting a paintjob (in the short term), I would cut the horizontal piece off and buff it with a dremmel, then paint over

It gives you an extra ~1-2 mm of space since the piece isnt folded on itself


Every mm counts

I was semi-joking, I already have mine rolled....

Fortunately, a friend of mine owned the real one that bolts onto your hub, and we did it with a heat gun, no paint crack or nuthin'

But yeah in general, a baseball bat is better than nothing

Rolled fenders make all the difference in the world. When I first lowered my car, my wouldn't move because the tire was stuck to the fender, after I rolled it wouldn't even scrape on a bump!

i was thinking 18x8's in front and 18x9's in back 265/45
a fender roll might just be worth the trouble tho

i personally would never buy wheels that wouldnt require modification to my wheel wells and fender.

what wheels are you looking at?

we can help you with the offset now.

and those tires are rediculously huge.
