Here in the Beginner Forum you have a whole mess of information available that you can use to sort the basics out. You can read about the different years, models, what they offer, and so on. You'll also find information on the motors, suspension, brakes, and other components all throughout the forum as well.

In your case, the Wheel, Tires, And Suspension section would suit your needs just fine. Here's an example of a sticky you may find useful: http://www.240sxforums.com/forums/w...-tires-suspension/84701-wheel-tire-info-thread-please-look-before-you-post.html

Welcome to the forum, and good luck.

 

dont get 7" rims, atleast 8's. and dont run high offsets unless you want your wheels super sunk & every1 to make fun of you. 17x8 +12 up front & 17x9+10 or 5ish would be not super aggressive, but just right imo.

Perfect reply,
Thanks man.

 

np, always here to help out a forum newb. btw kato your new sig is funny as hell!!! that cars got hops

 

IMO 17 or 18x9 with a +20 offset look best..the wheels poke just enough..+12's looks like a 5.0 mustang back in 1993 with 15inch daytons lmao

 

negative camber is your friend. +10 wont poke.

this car has 17x9 +10, i see nothing but flushness.... RIMTUCK.com - Photo

 

i'll take pics of my hatch with my +20's they dont poke much and it looks aggressive...im sorta running hipari style with my 9 inch rims and my 235/40/18's lol it looks pretty dope on the stock unpainted none front clipped body lol. also whats the cost of spacers nowdays cuz i work at a rim shop and we get them all the time for about 20 bones...i can probably send u a set for your rear, jus pay shipping

 

wheel talk confuses me. Just like wiring. I planned on getting some xxrs 002 16x8 any inputs?

 

Make your own thread before jacking someone else's.

That's a big no-no.

It's pretty simple (sort of): let's say u get 16x8 +0 offset. The format is diameter(in) x width(in) offset(location of the surface that meets the hub in mm from the center of the wheel, positive being in the direction of the outside of the car. So 16x8 +0 would be 16 in diameter 8 in width and depending on the rim could have up to 4 in of lip (spoke design and other factors play a part)

 

heres my 18x9+20 from the right quarter panel

 

Too bad all the 522s are 5 lug.

 

talkin about the XXR 522?

 

ok so spacers are used to push out your wheels to: 1-give yourself a wider stance (equals better handling,) 2-to make their wheels flush (aesthetic purposes,) 3-to clear suspension &/or brake components. your stock studs will suffice the majority of the times. usually people only need longer studs if they use slip on spacers (which arent recommended, research why.) fender work is usually only required if your car is lowered and youre running bigger (both height &/or width) lower offset wheels. but @ stock ride height youre still going to have fender gap so you can go pretty big on both wheels and tires.. but it wont look good... another thing to consider which i see you did inquired about, is the dimensions of the tires.... choose your wheel size first, and then you can play with the tire size, going bigger or smaller as required to make it fit.
also, i agree that youll want to go bigger than 7" width. 8" front & 9" rear is a good start. as well as youll want to go much lower in your offset, 15-20mm seem to be good numbers to work with. just browse thru everyones set up and see what sizes their running & what spacers or fender work it mightve required.
