I run a 17x9 +22 and they fit great with 255's with side skirts and stock body. I'm not hellaflush status but I like functionality over look. Whatever you do, don't goto Zilvia and ask the same question you just asked here!!!

AMEN. Searching on that site is frustrating on a good day...although their implementation of Google search has helped tremendously.
I haven't logged on there in forever. That site angers me. I really need to though, to get some brackets sold...I just hate getting 800 questions on how to copy my setup, but without using any of the parts I did lol.

Why do you say 18x9.5 is a lot of wheel for an s14 without engine or cosmetic mods?

It's hard to say...it is a big wheel...with the proper tire it may look a bit out of place on some cars. I run 18x8.5 350z Track Rays with 255's and love them...they fit, are light, and don't look half bad.

Anyway, as far as a drop, I want to keep the car as high as possible without it looking stupid. If that gives you any idea. Its a daily, and I want to retain daily-like ride quality, but I know that I'm gonna have to go a bit lower to keep it from looking like a 4x4. I just want everything to clear without having to run a super small tire or pulling the **** out of my fenders.

That's how I am. I'm not some pseudo drifter, so I keep it normal for the streets.
