No, ET25
Whats the ideal offset for a s14a?
as low as possible and then bash the arches to fit
hmm well my work vs xx are et29 and they just hit the calipers any idea what size spacer i will need? on a r33 gts-t they needed 25mm so the same?? there 19x8.5

well if they only just hit the calipers get a slip on spacer! Or, be a man, get some 25mm spacers and make them fit
lol if i put 25mm on the front would i have to on the back too?? because they only just fit atm without any on the backwell if they only just hit the calipers get a slip on spacer! Or, be a man, get some 25mm spacers and make them fit
sorry for sorta stealin the thread lol but any ideas?
?
If they just hit the caliper then a 5mm spacer should sort the clearance issue out and that's the biggest you can really go without longer studs
okay thanks wookie but i have a strange feeling im goin to need a big spacer.. as i couldnt even really get the wheel on without it hitting................... like i say needed a 25mm on a gts-t r33? reckon id just need the same.. (suppose dont know unless i try them all) just im trying to buy hubcentric ones.. no matter if there bolt on or slip on..
Well not being able to get the wheel on is not "just hitting the caliper"25mm spaces will be bolt on items and not slip on
I'd go for the "blue" driftworks jobbies as it gives you a load of different combinations so that you can find the best to suit your needs
hmmm they arnt hubcentric are they? just doesnt seem to me to be a good idea to just be able to keep putting discs on.. or maybe there safe as fk and im just chattin a load of waddle lol
The first 15mm of them are hub-centric and the additional slip on sections do not have elongated holes like the majority of cheapy cheap cheap slip on spacers, so I can't see there being a real problem with vibration
But if you think you need 25mm jobbies then go for it and hope the wheels don't catch
I would try and work out exactly you need otherwise it's like pissing into a gale force wind
okayhmm
I spoke to driftworks today and i was under the impressed (as i asked them) that even the 15mm ones arent hubcentric at all. I asked them that if i were to get a set of these spacers for the front of my s14a, would i notice any rattle or vibrations coming from the front. They recommended that i use them for the backs. They said you can use them for the fronts but some people have complained but dw said it's usually down to that persons setup.
If you give dw a call tell them what wheels you have and if u have any overfenders they will tell you what spacers u need. Buying 25mm bolt on's now from them.
