s14 wheel fitment question

[Stuey]

could anyone tell me what offset is needed for 18s 8.5 front and 9.5 wide back to sit flush with the arches on a s14 with 50mm overfenders and 50mm wings.

and does anyone know is there any problems with having 9.5 wide wheels on the front of an s14 ive been told to go for 8.5s

thanks for any help!

At least 9.5's on the front with the wings

Decent negative offsets with those widths! I had 9J -1 on my 180SX with standard front wings with plenty of negative camber.

It all depends on the amount of camber your running too and your definition of "flush" i.e. the top of the might sit 'flush' with the arch with a few degrees of camber but could stick out shitloads with very little negative camber.

Basically get some big arsed wheels and make them fit, loads of room to play with in 50mm wings, and you can lose a little offset with playing around with spacers.

Google search some S14 wheel fitments with various sized wheels to get an idea

mine are 9J on the front with gay ET25 +7mm spacers making them ET18 but they just just outside the standard wing! i want them at least 10 mill more out so you need real wide wheels or real good negative offset to pull off the +50mm wings!
