SSR MKII (F) 13x7 offset -5 / (R) 13x8.5 offset -12 (185/60/13)


As suggested, must be pretty low to make it work. Find threads by the Irish dudes, 13x8" superlites/minilites are mega popular there.

From experience I can say lightweight* 13" wheels with 185/60s actually work pretty well on stock motored cars, seems to help response both by weight and gearing down a little, nice steering feedback too. But unless they're wide and low offset, and the car is DUMPED, they will look a little lost in an AE86's wheelarches (however perfect on an xE7x).

*My Riverside 13x7s were sub 5kg each.

[irl86]

any one know if 13x8s will fit under ae86 guards without them being flared?
thinking of getting 13x8 superlights and running 185 rear 205 front
anyone got pics?
thanks

[hao.]

depends on what offset you get man. I think with an 8" wide rim, you'd get away with 0 offset on bog stock guards.

[irl86]

would they sit much wider than the 13x7s i have atm? is the extra inch all outward? or is this a stupid question?

[AJPS]

half inch in, half inch out

[sun_moon]

8 inches wide and negative 5 offset is the perfect width for stock guards.

[ae86 irl]

if you go into the ae86 owners link on this site an look up pic of ae86's in ireland thier is ae86's in their with 13" on them, see what u think

[Richard]

13x8 with 0 offset front

13x8 -4offset in rear

Thats what i would go with 195/60 tyres. Fill the guards nicely and WILL make a difference against 13x7s with 0 offset.
I doubt you will need to roll the guards

[benzo]

This ^^^ but 185/60

Really though, I wouldn't go 13" on an AE86. I've only seen like 2 that made me go "Hey, that looks gooood."

14" is so much better.

[Jdm-Mcc]

195/60 is HUUUUUUUUUUUGE on 13's! 185 in the 60 series MAXIMUM

[slydar]

13x8 superlites are a + 4 offset. they fit with stock guards on an ae86 with 185 60 tires, ive had that set up before. tbh, i dont think it can look good and work really. not on a car that is driveable on the road. the thing just ends up way way way way too low. you could make a cool looking show or track car. but as a track car its hard to have it that low and have decent suspension geometry as well.
