Wheels 16 or 17 x 8's to suit R32 GTS-T (4dr)

Okay its time - I was pipped by 700th of a second in the hillclimb and my opponent had R tyres. My standard tyres have to go (is my competitive streak showing?? Maybe I should push those horns back in, they're starting to show).

I'm currently running stock standard 16x6.5's. I've heard that pre 94 GTR wheels will fit (thanks Jayce). Does anyone have anything that will do the job for me?

I also have for sale 17x9 Sparko wheels and Falken tyres to suit GTR (they fitted the front but were too big for the rear, wrong offset ) I'll be putting more about these in the For Sale section with photos soon.

If there are any enthusiasts out there that are interested in helping me get this car set up right (that won't charge me an arm and a leg... although, I am prepared to give up toes and fingers) I'd really appreciate the help.

Please PM me with any thoughts, ideas and hopefully faster wheels

Thanks

It sounds like you would benifit greatly from some better tyres.

If you are after some motorsport orientated tyres, I can help you out.

I work for Federal tyres.

Have a look at the Federal website - www.federaltyres.com.au.

suspect i'll be selling my buddy club p1s at some point, but not until i find a replacement set for the gtr, i'm afraid. :)

I'm new to this, so please excuse my ignorance... what are Buddy Club P1's? :rolleyes:

They are a nice set of wheels http://www.buddyclub.com.au/

good looking, light and fairly well priced compared to a lot of other jap wheels like Rays, Work etc

I'm new to this, so please excuse my ignorance... what are Buddy Club P1's? :rolleyes:

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
