I ran a 18 x 9.5 + 30 with a 245/40 tyre on the back.. was a tight fit and that's when I got the inner lip on the rear guards rolled. Just with the inner lip rolled it was enough to tuck the tyre under so no flaring was needed

I ran a 18 x 8.5 + 25 at the front with a 235/40 tyre but they didn't tuck under but I never had the guards rolled at the front.. Your probably running a bit of camber at the front so should be able to get them tucked in

Otherwise R33 LCA will give you like -3 deg camber, with the inner lip ont he guard tucked it should fit up fine

245 is the widest tyre I have had.. lol

I've had 10" +22 on the back before and wanted to stick to that sizing but I saw these on yahoo auctions and had to have them. the lip is rolled and the guard is slightly pumped plus I rolled them before it was painted so didnt want to go through that again on new paint

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 :)

Some serious stretch

thats what im talking bout.. tyres that do yoga 5 times a week.

i had 235s on a 9.5 and thought it was a good stretch... took my "mate" at the tyre shop 15 goes to get one on.. he wasnt too happy when i came in 2 weeks later to get them replaced. haha

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?

Roy, i've got 19" x 9.5" +38 with 265/30 tyres on my 32 GTST.

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
