rear will depend on also what brake set up you have.I have converted to a 350z rear brake conversion, with 2 pot calipers on the rear and have difficulty finding rims to suit.

The silvia tear drop rims dont fit but the 7 star ceffy,silvia,180 rims miss the calipers.

Ive found anything with a 30+ish and up offset I can use.

offset of 38 works fine until you get coilovers which make the offset sink in! ;)

lowering without additional adjustment will create neg offset on rear ....i think mine has just over neg 2 degrees ......i have 17inch ... 8 inch +30 work meister s1's on the front and 9 inch + 35 on the rear. stacks of room around the brakes for future upgrades. They only scrape on the plastic crap on the inside of the gaurd at the front. +30 is max really for stock gaurds on the front. mine stick out about 4 to 5 mm .....

My old Orange ceffy had 18 x 11" rims on the rear........i am very UNcertain of the offset but i think it may have been -20ish.

There was about 7" of dish.

Obviously anything like that won't fit a vehicle that does not have the crazy/stupid bodymods that were carried out on that car.

    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
