^rotflmao at scraping front fender. Your front wheel looks like it’s going to snap and fall off and the tires look like they are falling off wth :-/

s13counterpart: Beatiful car man and 100% with you on all you’ve said.

That being said 18s are not gay on an s13, its just that people dont need to go that big, 18s have a much wider tire selection than 17s when you go wider and lower profile too (eg; 285/30/18). It would be niec if there were more offerings in 17s like 295/35/17 or something like. 18s on the other hand have a plathora of tire choices, compounds, etc… etc…

Problem is people get 18s and then fit shitty 215s 225s, and thats just kinda gay with a huge rim and bicycle sized tire. Just unecessary unsprung weight with no benefit. Wider is always more beneficial but like i said… not what people go after…

It’s only pretty from that side, lol…
I agree… 18’s have more available…I do wish there were more tire sizes available for a 17… guess I’ll have to stick with a 315/35/17 out back and a 295 up front…
Actually my issue with 18’s is just that unless you have 350z track sized rotors… or a bbk. The brakes just look dinky and out of place… Even the 300zx do…

i dont know why wheels and tires are causing such a stink lately.

if you want a car for looks then low and stretch are the way to go hands down. there is no denying that when done right it looks great.

but if you want function theres nothing wrong with some fat rubber. it can still be flush and look great, but its a different look completely.

Like I said… I’m an anti-stretch Nazi… lol

I’m the Godfather nazi of anti-stretch I even got banned on zilvia for proselytizing anti-stretch lol. Eventually made my own thread which kind of became popular and stickied but I got told never to come into the stretch thread again hahaha.

There are a few 17s that are wide… but they are super rare now… for example like what older supercars ran… lower profile but wider… even 15s, 16s… even r comps are becoming rare in those tiny wheel sizes lol… 18s are the future :-/

Nothing makes me more pissed off than super stretched/super slammed cars… sorry

[NoSkillz]

Front 18x8.5+35 235/40
Rear 18x9.5+35 255/35 or 265/35
S13 on stock fenders ,rolled already pulling if need be, spacers if need be as well to correct offset. My question is will this fit well, and will i need/should put spacers in and how think? 10mm?
