The rim is a 265, the tyres are 245...

I do not currently have the rims with me in the office, so that's all you're getting out of me!

they can't be a 265 wheel mate. wheel width is universally measured in inches.

so its like a 10.5 wheel? thats quite wide!

Yes, yes it is :) I'm a fan of wide rims :/

Hopefully I don't need guard rolling or anything... spose we will see...

245/35/20 on a 20x10.5" rim

love it, dont fit yet thought but they will soon

*pics*

Oooh, Very nice! :D

That's just what I was told... once they are in my hot little hands, I will be able to tell you more :)

that pic of that tyre and rim looks like shit im sure ya insurence company would love it too

thanks heaps for that input... I'm sure he really appreciates it...

no need to sugar coat it mid life crisis, tell us wat you really think!

i dont mind the stretched look, i have 225/45 on a 9" rim, i did this to try and fit them under my guards (which they didnt!).

however in saying that, now that the guards are bigger i will go for a larger tyre.

mid life crisis - im sure you have a car thats so much better than mine aye

my rims are worth more than your car so your comments don't mean shit to me

when you have something half as modified as mine then start calling it shit.

but untill you have the balls and the money go all out on a car shut your mouth

same to you "ROLLS"

Its still an opinion, I don't understand the attraction, it doesn't fit, its not practical, its not legal, it doesn't look good, it has no benefits apart from being a pain in the ass to fit.

Edited by Rolls

its not meant to fit the stock guards my guards are getting pumped to suit, even with the stock guards i have made em fit with some camber

the attraction is the 140mm of dish and aggressive offset rims

those tires aren't staying on there 265/30s are going on next

nothing is legal unless its stock so drop the bullshit "its not legal talk"

take a chill pill

for one it's my opinon im entitled to it i respect your right to disagree with it :-)

2nd not everyone wants a highly modified car does it compansete for a small dick or something .

ive had my share if modified cars since i started driving in 1976 im over it one day you will be too.

20 yrs of racing experince and a few records on the way ive had my fun i just enkoy my skyline for what it is

again chill out

cheers mid life crisis

ps i dont suger coat anything mate just call it as i see it

Edited by mid life crisis

You know, I didn't ask anyones opinions... I asked if I could fit my tyres onto the rims i plan on getting... This will save me an infinite amount of money seeing as how none of this is costing me a cent... THAT's my reason for doing it...

    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
