Nissan Silvia S14 wheel fitment

The S14 is commonly fitted with 17-inch wheels for road and drift use. Check the hubs first: Japanese naturally aspirated cars can retain four studs, while turbo K’s models use five.

Popular community setups

Starting points for a build. Read the notes with each setup, especially if your car is lowered or has different brakes.

17-inch staggered road setup

Front
17 × 8 inch, ET25 · 225/45 R17
Rear
17 × 9 inch, ET35 · 225/45 R17

An S14 owner reports this 5Zigen combination without spacers, with approximately one degree of negative camber. Confirm tyre approval for each wheel width.

17-inch square fitment

Front and rear
17 × 9 inch, ET20 · 235/45 R17

A frequently discussed S14 combination, with an owner showing the wheel fitment and another recommending 235/45 tyres. Check coilover and arch clearance on the actual car; lowering can change the result.

Width and offset guidance

Offset range

Check the exact setup

There is no confirmed range for this car yet. Compare a known wheel with your proposed size and measure both sides.

Common width limit

Measure before ordering

A maximum width has not been confirmed. Tyre shape, ride height and alignment all change the available space.

These figures belong to the setups described here. Combining the widest wheel with either end of the offset range does not guarantee a safe fit. For how ET moves the wheel in and out, read wheel offset explained; for how far the tyre can sit out, see flush, poke and tucked fitment.

Clearance notes

  • Four-stud naturally aspirated S14s exist. The stock 4x114.3 and 5x114.3 hubs are not interchangeable wheel fitments; count the studs, particularly on cars with a hub conversion.
  • Nissan specifies 98–118 Nm for wheel nuts. Owner references to 108 Nm are within this range; no single substitute is given here.
  • The listed ET45 turbo wheel is for the Japanese Silvia. North American 240SX factory listings include ET40 wheels, so market-specific specifications should not be combined.
  • Aftermarket examples are documented on S14-chassis 240SXs. Specify the correct drilling for a Silvia and confirm clearance against its brakes. The unverified 14-inch base specification is not included.
  • Check full steering lock and suspension travel with the car loaded. Match wheel load rating, tyre load and speed ratings, fastener seats and brake clearance.
