19s are perfect if you want to fill out the guards and make it look better

18s if your after performance

Im running 18 x 10 +10 offset front and rears sits flush with the guards on a gtr :ninja:

get 20's i have them on my car with mods on the car as well.. and it goes fine actually... 20inch fills up he guards better and you wont have to lower it as much as well... if you wanna check out my car have a look at my gallery and you will see that fit nicely dude

i stand by my statement of 19's or bigger being for people trying to impress 14 year olds. for starters they make your brakes look like you took them off a barina. secondly they make your ride much rougher which then in turn starts rapidly damaging other things such as suspension and engine mounts, etc. thirdly, if you hit the slightest pothole then you're more then likely to stuff a wheel and tyre, resulting in more money spent. forthly, they are stupidly expensive to buy both the rims and the tyres. fifthly they weigh more than smaller ones, therefore slow you down.

i guess it comes down to whether you are the type of person who likes people to look at you (although in the case of 20" wheels they will probably be looking and saying your car looks like shit), or if you like to spend money on mods that make your car perform better. my experience is that a large portion of people with stupidly big wheels will also usually have no (or very few) mods under the hood.

so true. white leather interior, illuminated make-up mirror, and diamond encrusted tampon holder... they all go with the 20 inch rims.

    • Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.    
    • In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
    • planning a r34 rb25 de+t with some other work, rather just have it done in a shop due to space limitations any recommendations? I have most the parts already I seen online Moore Performance and DR Drift any advice appreciated thanks 
    • I’ve read the previous posts so just looking for latest information on how people have dealt with front facing plenum is it a defect etc or didn’t pass roadworthy or was it not noticed? Have a r34 and deciding if I should make a hole on the driver side or not.  I know some people have said blitz return flow but I might get rid of the stock intake down the line for a plenum so I rather set up for that now plus I already have a standard Intercooler. Car is mainly stock  Thanks. 
    • Actually, if having and keeping the stock ECU is the plan, the correct answer is to put Nistune into the ECU and improve the situation, not just look at it.
