Have anyone tried 16x8 +30 wheels or something close on b14? :confused:
Probably fit 205/45 or 215/45 tires on them as well.
Any input please. Thanks.

15.4 mm more closer to the strut than a 16x7 @ 40mm offset.... if someone could measure the clearance from the inside to the strut and its more than that on a 16x7 wheel you may be golden... if thats good only thing you will have to worry about is rubbing the fender while turning in the front.

thanks guys.
The car's standing on coil-overs, would that help the inside clearance?
Also my concern is that they'd stick out to the outside too much and it would look like an off-roader. :D
The rims are forged, so I want them to fit badly. :D

I have a set of 16x8.5" in the garage to go on mine, but I have to find time to have everything redrilled to get them on. I'll post pics when I get a chance to get them on.

what kind of coilovers do you have? if they are true blue coilovers you will have much more room to play with.
do you already have these wheels? if you do just mount them up and get an idea on if your going to need spacers or not.

Love to see that.

I have fully adjustable Daiyama. I don't have the wheels just yet. Wanna make sure they would fit before buying. Even if I had the wheels I still need to drill some holes to be able to test-fit.
Anyway, I searched(sorry didn't do that sooner :( ) and found a thread of a member fitting 16x8 +42 TE37 in his b14. http://www.sr20forum.com/200sx-se-r/103891-volk-te37-fitment.html The pics no longer exist. My +30 is 12 mm to the outside, right? dang! wanna see those pics.
Keep looking and searching. :)

I just put a 15mm spacer on my 15x8's making it a 20 offset in the rear. It looks pretty good to me. No rubbing on my rolled fenders, just a little rubbage on teh bumper. It will grind itself away soon. =)

Seems like they would fit, or at least close enough to try. :D
Thanks a lot. Feel welcome already. :)
