Slivia/180SX wheelbase

Post by NachoMan »

Hi everyone, anybody know someone who owns a 180SX/Silvia?
I need to know what the front/rear track measurement is. I need to compare this to the Staz coz I'm looking at getting some wheels that fit the 180SX, but i need to know if fitting these wheels to the Staz will narrow the track...
I've searched the internet and no one lists this info. Please help me?!
The Staz is 1390mm front, and 1395mm rear

Thanks : )

The track doesn't matter it is the offset...

Google "silvia offset"

Yeah true. I was hoping to cheat and buy a set of generic wheels, but it looks like I'll be getting the car measured and getting a custom set of Simmons wheels made.
Looks like $725 a wheel :o

the S13 offset is 32mm. at least thats what ALL the wheels i`ve ever seen come off them be... starion offset is 18mm. quite a HUGE difference. the wheels will hit the front struts, rears woiuld be ok. u can do it if u run bolt on hub extensions, which may or may not be legal in your state!

or u could just buy the 3 piece ROH`s in the buy/sell forum here..

Nice and thanks for the info, but I'm probably going to go for 17" or 18" set of wheels.
