Ant97GTR Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Hey all, Can someone here (hellllo jack, aaron etc etc ) confirm that 18x10.5 +18 offset volks will fit my 33 GTR with no mods required? Not worried about brake clearance problems, more so whether they will stick out of the guards or rub on suspension components... Cheers Ant.

Ant97GTR Posted December 8, 2006 Author Share Posted December 8, 2006 Cheers Snowie Dane, I've had that bookmarked for about a year mate Great info and from that I can work out whether they are going to stick out of the guards or not but its a little more difficult to work out whether they will rub on susp during use.....

phunky_monkey Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Hey Ant, you should be able to work out if it's going to hit the strut too, just a little harder to get in their and measure. You should be able to tell pretty quickly whether you have 15mm of extra room to spare between the strut and the stock rims though, maybe get a small ruler in there??

Aaron34 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 yes they will fix comfortably. they'd look silly on a 32, but the 33 and 34 are fat beasts.

Hahaha and therein lies my problem Despite my car not being excessively low it is really hard to squeeze under the car to grab a measure so I end up feeling the gab blind....I was also unsure if they would hit/rub during cornering or during suspn travel. Figured it was best to ask those who have done it before Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/146481-will-they-fit-a-r33-gtr/#findComment-2736245 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome aaron cheers.....I take it the extra width of semi comps aren't an issue either then?

700HP-GTR33 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Just a note.......don't get larger than 275 width tyres...cause with mine I had to do some cutting. The tyres were rubbing on full lock....and it was only one side.....might have been hit before and not correctly alligned but yeah...my 2c worth.
