i wouldnt go any bigger than 19's. they fit on my 33 with a front spacers. but if i have a full load in the back and hit a big bump it slightly scuffs the guards. at full lock it doesnt rub either so i would assume with no mods that 20s wouldnt fit. 18s would be sweet for the all round package., but i just coundnt help myself with 19s :P also i have stock suspension set up. not sure of my offset but they dont stick out and a almost perfectly alligned with the body (pic doesnt look it)

post pics if ya get em!

I have seen 20's fit on r33's without modification. Its all about getting wheels with the right offset and brake clearance; Jake33 unfortunately doen't have either.

I would personally not go bigger than 19's. I have had 19's on my car for the past 5yrs, and haven't had too much issues. I am currently looking to down size my rim size to 18's, as you loose power and response with 19's, due to the larger rolling diameter.

Here is a few pics of my rims which i will soon be selling ;)

i have 19"10 and wouldnt go bigger, i have lowered it and it looks very nice, well i think so. any bigger wont look worse, but will be very ruff ride and plenty of scrubbing out...

definitely go 20s nothing pulls bitches like a set of chrome 20s on a 33..

In all seriousness though. Anything over 18 is too big imo. 34s can pull 19s and 20s as long as they are the right type of wheel. 33s end up looking like shit with anything over 18s.

not bad for a tractor.. :thumbsup:

Cant believe you guys are saying 19's are too big!!! 19s are the perfect size for 33s imo. i cant wait to get some on mine!

Most 18s look too small unless you get some nice lightweight style rims or 34gtr stockers.

I agree that 20s are too big unless your a cruiser who doesnt care about performance.

just look at a 33 gtr with 19" te37s!!! gawd lol

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
