I've done a search but can't find my answer...

- Is anyone running 17x9 all round? specifically on an R34 GTT

- Will 9" fit the front? seems most people go for 8"

- Can I go for the same width AND offset for front and rear? I was thinking 17x9 with offset in the range of +30 to +35.

specifically for a 34 GTT and only 17"

cheers

The offsets seem a bit too low.

if it's for a GTT

17x9 +20 is definitely not too low offset, IMO i wouldn't touch anything with a higher offset than that. Hell, i'm going to be running 17x9 +0 and 18x10 +12 on an S13 soon, will look tough as!

Hi guys just need some help while on this topic.

Ill looking at buying 18inch wheels with 18x8.5+43 Rears 235x40 & 18x8+41 Fronts 225x40.

Will these offset fit my R34 gtt?

Would it clear the brakes?

Thanks guys

Please don't, those offsets will look like complete AIDS on a R34

jesus this thread is a brothel!

you can run way better offsets than have been mentioned here...

i run 18.9.5 +30 (18x8.5+30 front) on an r33 gtst with no flare and near flat camber (just a roll) and its an easy fit... the 34 guards are bigger again, so 9.5 +20 will get you about the same fitment as me, and i still could go out a bit more... say another 10mm before i need to flare

Most people are way too conservative with offset. 33's can definitely fit +20 9.5" rims at the rear and +20 8.5-9 at the front with guard work and it will look a huge deal better than +35 and above offsets. Just don't run bulgy oversized tyres. 265-275 for 10", 255-265 for 9.5", 235-245 for 9", 235-225 for 8.5", 225-215 for 8". Any lower width and the rims are no good for a turbo skyline.

R33 GTST easy but wide fit would be:

Front = 18 x 8.5 +30 235/40/18

Rear = 18 x 9 +30 245/40/18

A little roll at rear - with 1degree neg camber both front and rear.

Keep in mind that you don't want big changes in track widths front to rear.

R34 are a bit bigger so:

Front = 18 x 8.5 +24

Rear = 18 x 9 +24

Not that I can think of rims that are these exact sizes. I currently have 18 x 8 +30 and 18 x 8.5 +33 and they sit about 1cm too far in the guards on R33. Come tyre replacement time I will get 245/40/18 for the rear - up from 235/40/18.

Hi,

I have not been sharing much since i came on the forum. I am from malaysia and here what i have for my setup.

18x9.5 +12 all around

F: 225/45/18 -1 camber

R:245/40/18 -2 camber

[ wheel was off a R34 GTR, got it cuz it was dirt cheap and thought the offset should be manageable]

I have not flared my guards so i been scrapping on hard bumps on all 4 wheels for a few weeks now. I am looking to get camber arm to help go negative even more. This is the part i need some guidance on. Now i have jacked up the suspension so the scrapping is to the minimum. There is a few people in here i have PM that helped me; it still work in progress.

im running 18x8.0 on the front, unsure of offset i'd have to check with 235 rubber no guard work

and 18x9.0 +24 with 265 tyres no guard work.

back wheels sit flush, maybe stick out a mm or 2. looks good

thats on r34gtt

    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers 
    • The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work.
