19's On A R33 Gts-t

[muaythailuke]

Hey guys 'n' gals,

I am looking at putting a set of 19x8.5" with 234/245 tyres on the front, and 19x9.5" and 255/265 tyres on the rear to a GTS-T R33... Is this possible with maybe only lippping, or would some more extensive mods need to be made? Or what offset I would need? I looked through all the page of the "wheel sizes and rim offset for skylines" thread but no-one had listed as putting 19's on there R33.

If anyone knows I would appreciate the info.

Not sure about the offset and everything but one of my mates had a 33 and he was running 265 on the back and 245 on front no worries, not scrub, nothing

Cheers man, yeah im running 245 on the front and 265's on the rear now but only in a 17x8 and 17x9 rim and ive been told buy some that I cant run a 19x9.5 on the rear I was just wondering if anyone could confime this?

[kingy_06]

If your already running 17x9 on the back, i dont think 0.5 will make much more of a diff. I would be thinking more about the 19" if it will fit! What size tyres u got on the back at the moment?

[kingy_06]

shit just re read and u said u already got 265! Yeah width obviously not a problem if you already got them on there! Prob be bit more worried about the 19" though not quite sure as i got 32! My mate had 18x9 on back with 265! Though few people on here i seen running 19x10..though guessing serious mod for that

dude i was running 20s on my 33 with 245s and no prob at all... should be able to get 19" 275s under em!

[kingy_06]

wow....thats a lot of rubber....what tyres were u using and what was traction like? Ever get em smokin?

Yeah I would have thought so too, just out of interest what width are your 20's?

You dont know the offset of your wheels by any chance do you?

[blitzpower]

I have 19x9.5 on rears, 275/30 streched, just clears, offset +37

[muaythailuke]

Just what I needed to hear, cheers man

so is anyone running the starcorp impuls in 19x9.5 rears. Im pretty sure they only come in 1 size offset. And do they sit in the guards or out?

[_8OO5TED_]

18x9.5 impuls definately fit inside stock R33 GTS-t guards, and the car can be lowered several inches without rubbing.

a mate had them on his R33. I would presume the 19s wouldnt be any different.
