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.

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!
    • This is going to be a mid week evening cruise. Come along and join us for a drive out to Palm Beach. This is a change of event plans after talking to some of the older members of the club. SAU NSW is planning on hitting Old Pac again shortly, stay tuned for details. When: Thursday 26th of June Time: 7:30pm meet/8:00pm departure/10:00pm finish Meet: Spit West Car Park / Spit Rd Mosman NSW 2088 Destination: Palm Beach Public Parking / 16 Ocean Rd Palm Beach NSW 2108 Up to date information as always can be found on the events page of our website, the link for this event is https://www.saunsw.com.au/events/palm-beach-cruise There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave. Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
    • Good time for a carbon roof  
    • Not in any way aroused by any of those, except maybe the big AMGs. And that would break my never a Euro, ever, rule.
