Ok, I have a 1995 240 sx with the 4 x 114.3 bolt pattern. Suspension upgrades include kyb shocks all the way around and tein lowering springs. 1.5 inch drop in the front, 1 inch in the back. Im going to order Gramlights 57s's very soon. Im going to run 17x7.5 up front and 17x8.5 in the rear I have decided. Just wondering if there offsets would work? +22 or +30 in the front. And +22 or +40 in the rear? THANKS!

7.5 in the front and you'll probably end up regretting it sooner or later.. besides, how much money can you possibly save with 1inch?nissanricer said:

if ur trying to save money, why not just get fn01rc's....17X9 +20 all around for a fraction of the money youre gonna have to shell out for gramlights. splparts.com carries them in 4 lug.

well every other person has those 5 zigen wheels, and why would gramlights be bad with a +22 offset all the way around?

or did you mean that dont buy them in horrible offsets like + 40 or sumthin like that??
yeah, really high offsets don't serve any purpose on wider wheels.
however, neither do uber low offsets either.
i think benson hsu (sileightymania.com for those who don't know who i am talking about) once said "proper offset is the spice of life."
he had a point. proper offset is key to handling and overall car performance.

na, im pretty hooked on these rims, I dunno why, just love the look of them. But would I have any clearance issues with a +22 offset?? Like and rubbing on the suspension. I guess its problem that spacers can solve I guess
Umm last ime i checked Gramlight 57s are not a bad set of wheels. They actually are pretty nice wheels. Now mabye i misunderstood what you were saying, hopefully. If you meant get some wider wheels in the rear and rock the 8.5 up front with better offsets all around, then i agree.916drifter said:
