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...

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
