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.

    • Good to hear. Hopefully you're happy enough not to notice when driving and just enjoy yourself.
    • I mean, most of us just love cars. Doesnt necessarily have to be a skyline.
    • Did you pick up a manual cluster to remove the position indicator?  (Pretty sure the 34 has the gear position in the cluster, but it's been a while)
    • Here is a recipe. Sonic blocks till you get one that has a good enough bore. Get a torque plate and block brace, use your choice of fasteners (arp ect) bolt the thing together empty, half fill it and let it cure. Release it when it has, go to a REPUTABLE RB Builder and get the thing line bored/honed and cylinder honed to size, then wash. Once its all clean and dandy, wash and blow it out again. Then again.  Assemble said engine to your desired clearances with oil control mods, gasket to suit desired CR/Squish ect. Attach your extended sump with proper trap door oil baffles and head drain plumbed to sump with a SUMP BREATHER SYSTEM. Build your front diff with a decent LSD, rebuild your transfer case with a few extra plates, more than likely replace your tailshaft centre bearing and tighten up the rear diff. Tune to minimise excessive midrange cylinder pressure (timing unless you like to split bores and rebuild engines) Enjoy your engine, but hate the fact you are now destroying engine mounts, gearboxes, gearbox mounts, diff output flanges and driveshafts, diff mounts, tailshafts and front CV's.   Disclaimer.... Ive never done any of the aforementioned stuff.......
    • 440s will support well over 400HP on petrol, which is a decent place to be for an RB20. 230+rwkW. Will be a safer bet for idle/low load. 550s would be nice for the extra headroom. I've made the same decision with mine (Neo25). 1000s are probably too big for the Nistuned ECU, so I have some smaller ones.
