    shouldnt be a problem tbh alhough problerly want 235/40/17 for a streched look or 245/40/17 for a normal look. i've got 8j's on the front of mine with a 5mm spacer and could do with a bit more,.

    this is the rear - 235/40/17 17x9 et35 no spacer



    front
    17x8 215/40/17

    Hi,

    The Torque Drift should fit straight on all round on your S13, you may require 5mm spacers on the front to clear your struts but you should be fine

    Tyre wise, ideally you need 225/45/17 front and 245/40/17 rear

    i couldnt get 225/45-17 on my 9.5" wide Torques today. Didnt think it would be a problem. Dont have a bead blaster though, but the use of compressed air should be sufficient right.- I mean its 225/45 tires.
