    Rota GTR alloys 18 x 8.5 ET 30 for S14A

    Hi i bought some of the above from you via ebay about 8 months ago.

    What tyre combination would i need for the stretched look ?

    Also what spacers would i required to get them to look well on S14A ?

    Will i need to do some arch modifications ?

    regards

    Mike

    Hi Mike

    There's not much point going for a stretch on that wheel size - it'll make you have a tiny tyre

    225/40/18 are the most popular size on that wheel.

    To look good it will depend on your view of looking good. If you want them hanging out of the arches then you will have to modify your arches, if you dont want that look, then you wont.

    I'd suggest trying a few different spacers on them and seeing how they sit, and work from there

    will these fit on with my apex coilovers without any issues.

    Taking the car to Demon Tweeks on tuesday next week for tyre fitment and to fit coilovers.

    are the spacers purely to give a wider stance rather than space from the coiovers at 8.5 wide ?

    I am 99% sure you will have no problems fitting these wheels on with those coilovers, it's usally just the 9.5s that give issues.
