Which wheels should I put on my car?

[dayna240sx]

Right now I have 17" x 7.5" Kosei K1 wheels on my car. I am selling my Turbo II rx-7 and it has white TE37's on it. They are 16" x 8". Do you guys think I should sell the wheels seperate (since the guy buying the RX-7 cant afford it with the wheels) or put the TE37's on my 240? I could probably get $1500 out of the TE37's, but only about $500-600 out of the kosei's.

Just be nice and give him the rims ..

On a S14, 17' rims is key ..
sell the volks

I'm not going to "GIVE" someone a pair of $2000 wheels. Hes already getting that car for WAY cheaper than what its worth.

Whats the offset on the volks? I know some RX-7 owners like to use a strange offset on their cars... Which is a bit different from ones that you should use on S14.

the volks are 38mm offset

well, if the TE37's fit.. put them on and see how they look. I agree with the master ZeldaKid, 17 looks great on S14 but sometimes SOME 16" wheels can get away with it.. but there is so much room width wide that wheels like 17x9 or x10 will even work. You have TONS of room for massively wide tires.

I say sell all the wheels and then get some you REALLY like.

16's are nice on a S14, 17's are as well.

Get an 8mm spacer and throw the volks on there... 30+ offset should be flush (I think), like the GT-R wheels. I like 16's on them, looks nice. I hated having 15 in steel wheels on my 97... HAHAHA. It's all good though, they did their job.

Oh by the way, the volks have 225/50WR16 Yokohama AVS tires on them, and the Kosei's have 215/45WR17 Kumho ECSTA supra 712's on them.

When i get home if no one has dont it ill do it for you buddy!! And Dayna i just looked at the K1's and i have to say SELL both and get something else!!!

I didnt want to say it, but I agree.. none of the rims you have appear to be proper for the S14.

The Kosei are too thin and the tires are Honda sized. The TE37's are probably the wrong offset and you can even go wider, so why not? You'll probably need to use spacers and longer wheel studs if you DID decide to try to use them, that alone is pretty big money for quality parts.

Sell both sets of rims, run stock for a while (hopefully you still have them). Then, buy some real rims. 17x9 should be fine, some 275's would look amazing.
