my rear are 265/35 R18 by 9 and my fronts are 225/40 R18 by 9 inches the tyres ive got on are brigestones SO2's

i just need to flare it out abit so it wont touch are there any people in melbourne in the western subs that does this?

rolling the guards doesnt sound like it'll help...you need actual flaring....

look on nissansilvia.com...there's a guy that rolls and flares guards...i'd say with the amount you want it flared, factor in $ for a respray :(

most panel shops can flare guards, but 1 inch is alot, and could look silly, + you will most likely have to respray the rear quarters as you will flake/chip the paint in the process.

are the rims 2 peice rims or anything ?

is this on a 32. 33 or silvia or?

2 peice rims

beautiful

was hoping you would say that ...

u can order a rim (outside part excluding the centre) to the desired offset, well the correct offset and simply bolt your centre back in and ur done. Depending on the brand of wheel also.

dont stuff around with the guards, they look stupid flared unless u cut them off and put gtr guards on, or get a crappo wide body fibreglass thing and cut the shit out of the guards anywho ..

even lipping the guards there is a danger in damaging the paint no matter how good the person is at doing it, especially if its been sprayed at a panel shop outside the factory.

the coat of paint is thicker, and the grade of paint could be poor.

Try to get a new outside rim for your wheels.

Sounds to me like you've got the wrong offset...

I've got 18x9 +35 on the rear of my 33, with 255's and they don't rub at all....I had 265's on at one stage and they didn't rub either...

yeah my 225/40s are fine on the fronts no probz just the rear my 265/35's are the probz wat is the offest surpost to be? and wat camber are have u got ur car on atm?

try raising your suspension.. it may actually improve your handling.

i thought the lower ur car the better the handeling and also if u had adjustable sway bars to stiffen ur body is this correct or not? :(

my wheels also stick out a tiny bit at the back..

since i got whiteline suspension stuff the car sits 1cm lower or so but it doesnt rub against the guards as much now.. only when i go over stupid train tracks and crap.

with the stock suspension it would rub when there was 3 ppl in the car and u were just driving along normaly.

rubbing would occur wen 3 or full load is in the car over bumpz or turning i think i need to harden up the rear any thoughts abt that pplz? so at least i can carrie a full load with out it touching as much.....and wat is this whiteline suspension sutff? :(

not necessarily.. depends on your setup. sometimes too low is not going to give you enough suspension travel, thus making handling worse.

atm it handles really good i like it sits nice looks good however the slight rubbing is eating away my tyres thats the bad thing

ok soo far the things

get new rims

change the centre bit of the rim get correct offset

and rise the car up :(

soo once agn wat abt making the suspentions harder like just enough so it isnt going to touch evan with a full load?

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
