That's hot man but your front bar looks warped?

What sizes and offsets are those wheels?

Yeah it is a bit, looks worse because the photo is shot pretty low. Brought two of them for $250 and sold one for $400 so I'm not to fussed.

The wheels are:

Rear - 18x9.5 +18 215/40

Front - 18x9 +13 215/40

took a couple shots this arvo and tonight, heres a few i mucked around with. Hard trying to get them looking nice without going too far :S, not sure if i did or not.

I included a few of the crappy night shots so i can get some advice :ph34r:

How did you get your black paint so shiny in the first pic?

I can't believe you managed to stretch 215's onto a 9.5" rim. No tyre shop I know would do that and I know people that work at one!!

I was running 215/40/R17 on the front of my XD9s which were 17 x 9.5 + 17 and 225/40/R18 on the rear 18 x 10 + 18 :banana:

Some serious stretch

Here's a couple shots of how the wheels sit and tyre stretch, still need to sort front and rear camber. Was running 225/40 before these but they were rubbing quite a bit, might just be the design of the tyre there might be a 225/40 out there that fits a little better.

what size and offset on those rims? look tuff!

Front - 18x9 +13

Rear - 18x9.5 +18

You should be able to get away with that on the back

I had 18 x 10 + 18 on the back of my R32 with 235/40 tyres. The inner lip on the guard was rolled and we slightly pumped/flared the whole guard, not to much but just enough to tuck the wheel under

Fron't I had 17 x 9.5 + 17 with a 235/40 tyre and same deal, guard liner removed with the inner lip rolled and guard slighly pumped/flared

Man, you guys all freak me out with the size wheels you are jamming in under the GTSts. I want to run a 9.5" , maybe 10" rear but only because i want to run a 265 rear tyre :down:

Anyway, the car has 9" +20 offset which should be doable and when the guards have been pumped for that sized rim i should be able to get a 9.5" + 36 on the rear aand run 255 tyres.

Is anyone running wide rims with decent sized rubber?

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
