depends on offset, and tyre width aswell.

i have 17x9" rear, 17x8" front

the fronts sit in the guard a little bit with 235's on them

and the rears sat perfectly in the guards with 255's, but get a tiny bit of scraping on the guards with the current 275's on them.

20 x 8.5" front and rear with 225/30 tyres fit a R33 without any guard mods.

I have a set, will sell em to ya for $1800

[Michael] can you camber adjust a R33 at the front?

max camber I've gotten from the front is -2.5; im not sure if you can get anymore with the stock suspension arms

how did u adjust the camber? i cant seem to find anything to adjust it as it seems you cant get adjustable camber tops for whales.

yeap no camber tops for r33 :O you need upper or lower control arms (i cant remember which one lol)

not sure how it is done, i just go to the wheel alignment people give me 2.5 camber and they do it LOL! i think if i remember right it has soemthing to do with the bushes :P

these rims will fit... i have the same size wheels on my car and its on the floor!!! i have the rear guard sitting on the rim and have no clearance problems. i do however have problems chewing tyres out but thats all part of having such a low car. when your car is this low then u wheel align the rear the tyres straight again, it will rub!

tempe tyres said that they will be fine as long as it is 19-8 on the front and 19-9.5 on the back hopefully

....... always say that, might need spacer on front cos of caliper, unless u ordered a custom offset or they got it right. Dont need to roll the guards if u get falkens, otherwise yes! or u will shave your tyre (front) when taking humps at an angle (assuming you are lowering it)

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
