17"x9 On A R33 S2 With 18+ Offset

[cjlancer]

Would anyone be able to tell me if these measurments would fit my car? Im planning on buying rims tommorow but because my car is at the machanics i have no car to test on.

Size is:

17"x9 with +18offset

Im just wondering if theres any modifications needed to fit these?

Would it clear calipers?

Would it rub gaurds?

Im also running on cusco adjustable suspensions if that helps!

Thanks guys!

they will stick out about 1inch from the guards

Hrrmmmm your right it does stick out of gaurds roughly 3 cms. With my coilovers lowered it will hit the gaurds. And the insurance company said that itll be illegal to have the whell sticking out of gaurds.

Anyone have any ideas what i should do?

I was planning on having my gaurds rolled out and raise the suspension.

Would that make it more legal, or should i sell out the rims?

You will deff need to roll the guards dude.

Those offsets are for gtrs which have a more pumped guards than gtsts..

Sell the rims,

And get offsets at min or 30 for a gtsts..

30 front, you might just have to roll it a little..

Anything below 30 offset, will just hit the guards easily.. plus it will look gay anyways.. lol

I reckon for 17inch rims, 32 offset front, 35-37 offset rear is best combination..

Plus you already have 9inch wide rim.. It will look phat!!

Btw is that 17*9 all the way around?

Im not to sure if the fronts will fit then.. AS in, it might touch your coilovers..

In short, those rims are for GTR's!!

Get some stretched tyres (Try 215s) and a bit more negative camber, then lip the guards and it will be better.

Ive got some stretched tyres at the front already with 235s, rears are 265. But it causes alot of camber wear.

It is 17*9 all 4 rims, might really have to think about selling em.

But i really like these drifteks man, anyone got any to swap =)
