pretty sure it won't fit my car.

hope someone starts selling these 5 spoke BeeR copies soon, they are just too nice to ignore

You may already know im not sure, but Otomoto are selling the real thing. Going for 500 per wheel for 18s, have a squizz at http://www.otomoto.com.au/beer.htm if youre keen. BTW i have zero association with this company just saw them advertising in HPI (yes i know he owns the store and is the editor of the magazine too!!)

as much I love original products, money is still an issue for me. Guess i'll get them when I get a bettter paying job.

BeeR copies gonna be the the new implus now? Oh noes

hope not........i think the impuls dish look is still popular, heck even I was tempted to get some......but i'll be wanting some BeeR wheels in the very distant future.

why do you need copies? they are cheap as already. they cost around the same as a set of starcorps or whatever. $500 a pop is as cheap as your ever going to get for an 18 inch wheel that doesn't look like arse.

pretty sure the GTR size ones are 18X9.5. of course the Bee-R/uras/d-tek/driftek/whatever are all basically copies of the rays nismo LMGT4s. They are all cast, hence the low price.

edit: what site are you looking at stanski? in 18inch they ONLY come in 9.5inch.

B5 racing wheels

Bee Racing’s own five-spoke wheel as used on the Bee Racing D1 car. Available in two sizes, with 5x114.3mm PCD only. Silver, bronze, white and super-chrome are available to order. Call for availability as various colours are kept in stock.

17x9 +25mm offset $479 each

18x9.5 +25mm offset $499 each

18x9.5 +38mm offset $499 each

i too am a fan of the Bee-R wheels, but they are WAAAYYY to wide (at the front) for me, so unless they make different sizes, a copy or getting them fixed and narrowed would be the only option

Problem (like someone has mentioned) is that the Bee-Rs are built for GTRs only so there is no way the 17x9 (+25) will fit under the front guards of a GTS-t.

However, the Bee-R copies come in smaller rim sizes (17") with GTS friendly offset.

That's the main reason people go for the copies.

Anyway here's a Aussie seller where you can get the copies (D-Spec brand):

As you can see they come in 17x8.0" +30 which suit GTSs (and 200SXs etc)

However if you think the D-Spec brand is not good quality, you can also get Bee-R copies made by the trusted JDM brand URAS:

Funnily enough they are the same price as D-Spec!

who'd buy r34 gtr wheels when you could buy those beeR for 500 each

finally the r34 gtr wheels might be priced what they are actually worth. that is, around 1000$

you are living in a fantasy land. Bee-r rims are a CAST wheel. genuine 34 GTR wheels are FORGED. That alone accounts for a massive difference in price. Plus I am not 100% sure where the Bee-R wheels are made but the genuine 34 wheels are definately made in japan. They are standard equipment on a $100K+ supercar. Bee-r wheels are a relatively cheap, aftermarket wheel. there is no real comparison.

    • Welcome back mate ,I also joined in the early 2000's , since then I have been in and out a few times depending if I had a skyline in the garage.  I have the another one now , so signed up and back with the SAU team.
    • I used "different strokes for different folks" quite pointedly as honestly, there is no wrong when it comes to choosing what you like.  I always day dreamed about flappy paddles with fast shifts in a sporty RWD Turbo and to me the sound and feel of it cutting through gears in a steady stream is exciting, engaging, and keeps the car better balanced - I *also* like h-patterns, but I find them more engaging and fun in a nice hoonable peaky NA thing.  Type-R Integra/old school NA rotary, things that are raw and need all the rpm where picking the gear and getting it sky high is part of the engagement of the whole thing despite the fact that they probably need closer ratios and faster shifts even more than a 3l turbo thing haha  
    • If I wasn't allowed or really had the desire to visit China it would probably fit in my carry on, but I have no desire, Japan would be nice during Cherry Blossom time though I might need to chat to Jackie about that, that should actually be an easy conversation though as she is currently talking about another cruise, cruise ship to Japan, a week in Japan to see the sights, then cruise home I may even be able to find those OEM NC Recaro seats over there that I cannot find here 🤔
    • What do you mean?  In between the two I shared?  They're the same boost   This will be insane.   A mate has a GTSt with a 9:1 RB30/25 with Tomei 256 cams and a Borg S362SX-E that is already a beast from the basement but has a stock 5 speed and will probably get a ZF8 one day.  After the G35 900 RB26 setup I'd be lying if the topic of "Wtf would a divided G35 be like on this thing?" idea hadn't come up - you'd definitely want a wide boost control range setup with it, as even with the less responsive and potent S361 we're having to ramp boost in from very low levels in the early gears.
    • ZF8 is faster, wider ratio spread, better in every way. I do not dispute this. But I have brain damage and I want the feeling of shifting gears. To me the extra work is fun, but I daily an automatic and in the US like 90+% of cars are automatic so a manual transmission is an "exotic" experience. If I want an automatic I've driven an F80 M3 with DCT more than a few times and it's incredibly capable but it's emotionally vacant to me.
