ive seen a few classics with 18s but not sure how they got them to fit. 18s usually come 7.5 wide and with a 40 mm offset. anybody out there know more about this? let me know

Yeah, im thinking that would be sacrilage, or blasphemy or something that would degrade the good sentra se-r name. 17's at the most....arent those big enough for ya???

No they arent.....im wanting to put my 22"s on there. Only reason i got the dub duces was because i didnt want to wait till i could afford the 26"s or the car to put them on.

And Ben was still suprised to get in my car. All I listen to is rap basicly. Well i listen to everything but all I have is rap it seems. Need to diversify since all the rap coming out is crap anymore. Oh well...

But i bet with tire and all i do have atleast dub duces :D

wouldn't the classic be REALLY slow with 18 inches, a high top speed I would imagine though.

Not to mention when you had to replace tires....my god the horror!!!!

well im gonna need something to slow down my fmax turbo. the only reason why im asking about 18s is because i found some for cheap, and ive seen one sentra in the turbo magazine that had them. im gonna stick with the b14 wheels for awhile, and upgrade to 17s or 18s. ive had 17s before on my old sentra, i got used to the size and theyre not that big to me anymore. 18s are big but i bet i would turn more heads.

Well thank goodness, because 18" tires will run you $300 per.

Hey if he wants to roll on 18" platinum dubs w/ rubberbands on them, er I mean tires, let em.

Dude if your seriously considering 18's, word of advice - you will have so little tire to cushion anytype of blow, STAY AWAY from potholes, bumpy roads, and rocks in the roads. They will damage.

I don't think we've answered the original question:

Would 18" rims even fit a B13? It would be a squeeze in the rear wells. Style and performance issues aside, I'd be scared to attempt it without a lot of careful measurements.

Get 16" wheels instead?

a silver se-r has 18s in an old issue of turbo magazine. i know it can be done, but i was wondering if anyone on the forum has and give me their two cents worth. i decided not to get the 18s even though 999 with tires is a hell of a deal. instead, im gonna get a carbon fiber hood and a paintjob. i dont like aztec red =T
