Back, yes. My old rims were 18x9 +45 on the back, still heaps of clearance

Front, no, will hit the upright. I had a few mm clearance with 18x8 +38 with 235/40R18s. Your rim will sit in another 8mm and the tyre will more than likely rub on the upright.

GTR offset rims usually hit the guard...

Had some 17x9 +20 on the front and they only just tucked into my flared guards (flared 15-20mm) and was running 3deg camber.

So yeah, you'd have to be lucky to make em fit...

You'd probly need to find 8.5 +32. That should fit into the stock guards, maybe need to lip them

Im not so worried about the wheel hitting the guards, i can have them modifed and or fit gtr front guards.

Im more worred about fitting a wheel with the wrong offset stuffing up the handling of the car, ie if u take where the center of the wheel is stock u want to increase it the same amount each side of this line.

eg no good having a wheel that goes out a few inches but only goes in 1 inch if u get me.

Offset is such a stupid measurement imo

cheers fellas

This means you want the same offset as stock. i.e. +40

Offset is measured from where the wheel mounts to the hub to the centre of the rim.

The fact is, you can't have a +40 rim with a decent width. There is nothing wrong with having a rim of different offset, increases track and you can fit wider rims on.

I'm not sure why you'd want to keep the offset the same.

I think that's what you're getting at, correct me if I'm wrong

I get more confused by the second.

I have heard etc, that if u put a wider wheel on and it goes futher out than it does in, compared to the stock wheel (if that makes sense) u will have problems with bump steer and stuff.

I want to run 8.5s or 9s if i have to go gtr offset in the future. If i can do this and have the car handle the way it should i have no problem modifying the guards to get them fitting.

its just when ur buying nismo's u dont wanna funk up :P

Nah, bumpsteer is caused by suspension geometry issues, usually caused by excessive lowering. You'll be fine, get the right offset, probly around +30 and you'll be fine to run that size. Remember, the smaller the number, the further it sticks out of the guard.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
