Selling these rims, need to free up shed space

Tyres good for drift, 2 ok for road use,

Rims are 17x8 front 17x9 rear, with all wheel nuts

Asking $500, with a pair of pretty well had it RE55S Semi Slicks chucked in as well (one needs puncture repair)

Spray 'em black, white, whatever! Would be a great set of track/drift wheels

hi do the rims have any flat spots or bad chunks missing from the edges looks like they have some gutter rash have u got a closeup of the worst damage

what is the offset please I like these sparcos my car had them in 18s but wrong offset I am keen for these if the offset is suitable and the damage is repairable.

Hi,

the two rears have a bit of scraping, mainly from using semi-slicks as they have no rim protector.

Offset is 38 I think, I will have to check.

Do you have GTR or GTSt? Don't think they would be suitable for GTR, I believe you have to keep rim sizes the same front and back other wise you stuff up the workings of the 4WD

Will post up offsets when I find out what they are.

If this gives you any indication, the rears just fit inside the rear guards, same with the fronts

Will post up them up when I find out

Hi Chris Still waiting for the offsets are the wheels still for sale?

will transfer the $$ to your account today if you are selling.

Hey mate,

I had a look on the weekend, couldn't find much on there. From memory there was a sticker saying they where 32 or 38, can't quite remember, but it looks like it has come of when they where on the car

Is there any other way I can measure the offset on them?

^^^Offset is distance from centre of rim to the surface/flange of the rim that bolts onto the hub. (sorry can't explain better)

So the higher (+'ve offset) figure will mean the rim sits more inside the guard, and for lower or -'ve offsets opposite applies.

So a rim width of 8" (200mm), halfway/centre will be 100mm, likewise centre of 9" (225mm) rim will be 112.5mm.

Measure the distance (mm) from outside edge of the wheel towards centre (width wise), ie edge of rim to the surface of the rim that will bolt onto the hub, now subtract this distance from either 100mm (for 8" rim) or from 112.5mm (for 9" rim) and this should give you your offset.

Alternatively, measuring from the "inside" edge of rim to the same surface as above where hub bolts on, then subtract either 100mm (8" rim) or 112.5mm (9" rim) from that distance and it should be the same value as the first method.

Best way I can explain it.

theres an easy way to measure the offset

get a straight edge at least 20'' long [a brickies level is perfect] lay it across the rim at the back and measure the distance to the back of the mounting flange then lay it across the front of the rim and measure the distance to the back of the mounting flange, the difference between the 2 measurements is the offset, you can get a close enough measurement even if the tyres are mounted and the straight edge lays on the tyrepost-23827-1141631231.jpg

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
