Tedr03 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I've searched and found nothing. Has anyone ran the ssr sp1s without flares? I see they offer 16x7 +9 which is IMO good figment for the s30 without flares. I would be surprised if no one has tried this setup. Opinions?

Tedr03 Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 Anyone? I'm leaning toward these but I'm afraid to make the dive that I'll be stuck with expensive non-fitting rims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdreView Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I know most S30 owners go with 8" to 9.5" wide wheels, 7 should clear with no probs. As for the diameter, 16" is a good size both visually and purposely for the chassis. The offset preference is 0 for OEM fitment, +9 will put you 9mm closer to the struts, which shouldn't be an issue depending on the brand and size tire you go with. There is a limited number of newer age wheels that fit an S30 correctly, if all else fails with the install you can always measure and go with bolt on spacers, however you'll have to add that to the cost of wheel/tire package. Fwiw, I was recently going to pick up some +25mm Enkei 92's for my 2+2, I would have to add the spacers for sure in the rear +25 or thicker for the set to fit with no rubbing.

Tedr03 Posted February 14, 2014 Author Share Posted February 14, 2014 Thanks a bunch for the reply! That helps, I'm running 16x8 right now 0 offset and I had the run a 205 tire in order not to rub, I figured with the + 9 I should be able to run the appropriate tires. I'll call them and see if they had anyone run these on a s30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plug in the current and potential size you want to see if it'll fit with or without issues. http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp Edited February 14, 2014 by AdreView Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluDestiny Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Personally if I as going to pay that much for some SSR's I'd go with 16x9 16x10 with the proper offsets and run flares. But if you don't want to run flares your should be fine with that size. Maybe a slip on AutoZone spacer if you want to bring I out a little more.

brianZortiz Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 do something like: http://www.stanceworks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=44470 7" to tinny, you are paying top dollar for wheels that have a variety of options. Don't run spacers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
str8pipez Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 I have 16x8 klutch SL1 that are +15, and I will be adding 5mm spacers. +9 would have been perfect for me. 215/50-16 tires btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texis30O Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 17X9.5 and 17X11..... go big or go home, especially when buying wheels of that caliber..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are very similar to the Enkei 92's...I almost picked up a set locally but held off as they were 15x8 and I'm looking for 16". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
