Oh I must've misread. I swear it said 255? Ohwell, my mistake.

I would stick with 225/40 on there. 235 is a bit big, and I dont like it. But Gary likes to get as much rubber as he can on the rim, he puts 245s on 8s.

I've got some 17x9 +20 that I've put all round on my car before, they stick out ~20mm, so you need to do a fair bit of guard rolling. It looks damn tough with the offset though, clears all the suspension easily. I had 215s on them at the time though, so I'm not too sure how 255 would go, but I was looking at the edge of the rims. I can send you some pics of how they stick out if you want?

Salad how do u think 18x9 +22 would fit on r32 gtst? with 255 rubber?

LOL...no hope. Unless you attack your guards with tin snips . :D

I currently run 235/45/17 RE55s on my track rims. The RE55s are a bit wider then most 235s. If i drop the rim/typre on the face the rubber overhangs enough to protect the face of the rim. Now a few ppl i know have gone from 265/40 on GTR rims which are about the same fit...to 255 which are a tighter fit, must like my street rubber 255/40/17s on my 9.5" LMs. They all agree the car is quicker, and handles nicer. The lap times are not wrong.

So next time round im going to try 225/40s on my 8" track rims rather then the 235s.

Thanks for the help.

My choice is either 18x8.5+40 or 18x9+22.

I think ill get the guards modified, i know someone pretty handy. I guess fitting gtr front guards would be an easy option on the front.

Salad has said previously that the 8.5s with +40 will hit the strut(front only) with the tyre if not the rim. I want to run the same size wheel/tyre combo front and rear, hence why i just bought the 7.5 + 30s for a start :laugh:

Cheers guys

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
