Calling all fitment gurus for the Devil King build
 
Hi all, Amemiya just finished my build! I am now ordering some 326 power Yabaking one piece wheels, as my only option from Amemiya was Enkei. So the gents over at 3w6 power gave me some numbers... I will post those below,my question is, Which of these foreign language science pedigree specs do I order??

some info I believe you will need; I am running Amemiya ADGT (1) widebody with Amemiya spec dg5 suspension.
Lastly, I am going for a nice compromise of performance and aesthetics (I will be running Desmond Regamaster 17" on the track). Oh also, the car is a 93' with stock brake caliper and rotors (upgraded pads and rotors but stock dimensions)

here are my options from 326power, they're saying I need a 4mm spacer for the -2 offset. These are deep dish kn all 4 corners... will I regret that? Should I go medium lip up front?
I am only assuming the 93 came with 16" wheels, correct me if I'm wrong.
FD3S originally supplied with 16" wheels (smaller brakes):

Front:
Yabaking 1-Piece 18x9.5J-2 - 4mm spacer needed to clear front caliper
Yabaking 1-Piece 18x9.5J-17 - clear

Rear:
Yabaking 1-Piece 18x10.5J+10 - clear
Yabaking 1-Piece 18x10.5J-5 - clear

any help here is greatly appreciated! Here is also dramatic photo of the car as it sits at port waiting to be loaded for transport.

Thanks again everyone!

are you building a show car? track car? how low will it be? do you know what size tire you're going to run?

I'm running 18x9.5+18 up front with 265/35/18 (with ADGT front fenders). It looks like the least aggressive you can go with between your options up front is effectively 18x9.5-6 after the spacer. That means your wheel will stick out 24mm (almost an inch) farther than mine does in these pictures.

In the rear, I'm running 18x10.5+18 with 295/30/18 tires. (ADGT2 fenders, which are wider than yours). Mine are slightly sunken in, but I don't mind it for a track car. Also, I just did extended studs in the rear, although it does depend on wheel design, there was no way I could run any lower offset of a wheel with stock studs. (if I threw a 10mm slip on spacer, I wouldn't have enough thread engagement with my lug nuts).

here are a couple better photos of how sunk the rears are, although I'm 285/30/18 here.

ben! I know your car very well from IG! So I will coincidentally be running same wheels on the track! I like your fitment with exception to I would like the rears to stick out flush.
That said, These yabakings will be for daily and spirited mountain runs. Amemiya built the car and it's basically all performance. I want to add some aesthetic to it with these yabakings. I'm shooting for an 18"9.5 265 45 front and 18" 10.5 295 45 in rear. The suspension is pre set by amemiya, dg5 so I'm not w to rely sure what the drop is to be honest...
I'm looking for a set up that still has good performance over everything else but I want the fitment proper regardless of having to out extended lugs and or spacers. I really appreciate any feedback! Thanks so much Ben

Devil King... Not sure I understand why you would run those beautiful Rega's on the track and put on those 326power wheels on the street.

going for pure performance on the track, 17" regas. For street I want something a little more aggressive aesthetically.

45 is too tall of a sidewall. remember the sidewall/profile number is a percentage of the tire width, so as you go wider, you want that number to be lower. I really recommend 265/35/18 and 295/30/18. I also don't see how you're gonna fit those without it looking goofy. Those wheel specs are gonna need stretched tires (235/265) and lots of camber if you want it to have a chance fitting your kit, and/so it's gonna basically gonna need the stanced out look in order to look right. is that what you're going for? that's not going to pair well with dual purposing it for track use (in my opinion).

that said, if you're set on the 326 power wheels, which in my opinion are better suited for like a rocket bunny kitted car, or something wider, then I'd definitely go with the higher offset options. -2 up front, and +10 in the rear.

here are some pics of a buddy of mine from Hiroshima rocking, 326 power wheels, 326 power wing, RB kit, re-amemiya bumper.

I'll see if I can get his wheel specs from him.
