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.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
