17 x 9 - Standard R33GTR wheels with 245/40/17's

Pictures are at 340 mm front and 330 mm rear, which was too low. It's now at 355 mm front and 350 mm rear, much better ride and handling.

18x10 +20

dont get a 10 in the rear unless you get at LEAST a +10

but hten you will haev to do an agressive roll and pull in the rear.

anything less will hit your coilover.

Your using 235's on 10 inch rims as per per your first post?

They would look mega stretched?

A "normal" person would use a smaller width rim and run the correct width tyre for comfort, looks, handling and safety

am i normal?

I use a 225/40 on a 9 inch wide and a 235/40 on a 10 inch wide

its about clearance, the stretch in the sidewall allows you to run a wider/lower offset without fear of rubbing so when the camber changes in a turn, it acts like a circle and not a square like a normal tire

am i normal?

NO :thumbsup:

That's why you should explain or clairfy when posting esp when people are asking a question about a topic they do not know anything about. Otherwise someone is going go and buy a set of wheels too wide or the wrong offset and have to beat the shit out of the rear guards and run a way too narrow a tyre for the rim size.

cool...thanks grant.

mate has a set of eurolines ..18*9 and 18*10 ..both with +35 offset...i'll try them for fit this weekend....oh and tyres are 235 at the rear too...really stretchhhhhed

Running Advanti Racing 'Karla" wheels:

Wheels: 19x8 +35

Tyres: 245/35 R19 Hankook K104

They are being replaced (due to a fault) with Enkei RP03 model which should fill the guards a little more, I think.

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
