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

    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
