Thread: ROlll CALLL!!! HELLA FLUSH SENTRAS!!

Thanks Nate, good to see ppl recognise the work of an oldtimer

I'm limited to the wheels stocked in hawaii.
The closest thing i can get is a 18x9.5 with a +25 offset.
What do you guys think about the fitment?
thanks.

I wouldn't consider it an old timer, your car is one of many others over on b15sentra that gave me inspiration that it's possible to run wider wheels/aggressive offsets.

Man a 9.5 is pretty wide wheel and with a +25 offset, thats going to be pretty close to your strut. You would probably need spacers to clear it and with spacers it's going to be a mexi-poke at that point. I mean this is just thinking off the top of my head and using a offset calculator.

I would suggest looking for a 9" at the most but hey if they fit, then by all means jump on it. If you can test fit the wheels, I say try that out before you buy it from whoever it is on the island.

^^^ Thanks. I figured it would be pushing it. I saw another forum member run 18x9 w/ a +15 offset so i figured these would work as well. My only other option is a 17x9 w/ a +15 offset. Sucks living on a rock in the middle of the ocean. We are very limited here. I wanted something similar to your set up. The +25 offset looks great. I guess i could always run spacers? Would these offsets negate a strut/spring combo?

Thanks again.

Haha even though your limited on wheel selection, so many people would go crazy to visit Hawaii. Hell even I wish I could go to Hawaii for a week.

With +15 on a 9". You would actually have a lot of room from your strut. SHIFT_Sniper car is a good example to give you an idea on how much his wheels are pushing outside the fender with his 18x9 +15. Just picture the wheel in a smaller diameter and your set. Lol probably just photoshop his wheels to be smaller? Man I spent like a year researching for a set of wheel's that provided those spec's, at the same time concave spokes to clear the Brembo's.

Serta was the first to do the poke and stretch successfully on the spec and it doesnt look bad, its fcking beautiful.

I have 3mm spacers in the front due to I have 60mm extended studs and with out the spacers my 50mm extended lugs bottom out. So basically im running +12mm offset up front. Ima put the stock studs back. In the back I dont have any spacers at all. As for a the rims ur looking at, they'll stick out 25 mm (1'') farther and 5 mm (0.2'') closer to suspension/brakes components than stock spec wheels. Compared to my set up, my rims stick out 40 mm (1.6'') farther than stock spec wheels. Just from the info u gave m it should be fine

awesome car man

Fenders-Not pulled or rolled yet

Im going to steal your car lol j/k but i think the offset, wheel and tire size is about where Im going here soon hopefully now to get me some other wheels (again)

Lolol kind of a long drive to my house but I don't mind people copying my specs. The width is great, offset provides nice fitment, concave spokes allows clearance for the brembo's, and the tires gives a nice little stretch. I was rubbing in the rear recently but I just finished rolling the lip flat and ahhh it's smooth ride once again haha. The front rubs on the fender liner but I think I'm going to reshape it with a heatgun and see what happens. I wish Volk provided these specs. for 4x114.3 but meh these rota's will do.

^^no worries, your car looks sick.

The way I look at it is who gives a shit what brand wheel you have as long as it looks sick. Your ride is hot
