Ok, looking to see if you guys came across with any decent rim selections, and no I will not convert to 5lug.

Looking for 17" rims,

My lug pattern is 4x114.3, and looking for an offset in the +35range since it's common.

So far just pretty much came up with the 17" 5zigen FN01R-C's in Front 17x7.5 +40, and 17x8 +35 in the rear. These rims run around 200 a pop so that isn't such a bad idea.

B, I am sure you have some decenet choices??

thanks guys...
 
actually, no.

there's dick for rims in our size man.

its either:

-go 5 lug
- get cheap ass wheels with FWD offsets
- spend an ass load of cash on volks
 
whats your opinion with the 5zigens?? I mean they aren't that bad, and I would prefer them to be wider in the rear, but honestly for the cash involved it's not sooo bad :)

also, some cat from freshalloy had custom made kosei K1's in the 4x114.3 pattern with a pretty damn good offset, and they ran him 250 a pop I think, he waited 10 weeks for them also.

those gram lights would be pimp, but they are a little out of my price range. :)

^^ I think these would look pretty damn good on a black s13 coupe,
 
Heres a quote from another freshalloy member with these rims
"S13 Setup:
17x7.5 +25 Front 215/45 tire
17x8 +15 Rear 225/45 tire
H&R Hubcentric spacers w/ ext. studs 15mm F / 20mm R
approx. 1.5 deg. neg. camber in front
approx 2.5 deg. neg. camber in rear
AGX's+Sportlines, slightly rolled fenders

No rubbing; *uber* flush. "


From 5Zigens site
"Offsets are as recomended by 5zigen for the s13:

SILVIA/180SX S13 17 x 7.5 +40　215/45-17 17 x 8.0 +35　235/40-17 "
 
somewhat related to your other reply B:

Honest Opinion

is it going to be that bad with a +40 in front, and +35 in rear, if so like the quote above would you use spacers...

I know it's ghetto, but thinking about it now??
 
hmm........also on pdmracing they have a 5 lug conversion available


Options include either using the H&R spacers, true 5 lug conversion from SE, or using the 5lug hubs which cost 300 for front and 220 for rear from pdm while retaining original equiptment.
 
s13 se's aren't 5 lug either.
+40 sucks.

might as well get a 17x7 tenzo wheel for a honda with the 8lug multi pattern. it will look the same way.

7.5 / 8 setup is wack as fuck.

you can easily fit a 10" wheel and a 245 no problem. plenty of guys run 255 in the rear with some cutting/rolling. 8 up front.

i want 17x8.5/ 18x9.5
:)

but my car is too slow, and too ghetto to pull it off.... and thats a lot of money
 
thanks for the reply, I'll take your word for it......
