Legal i think is 1" up and 1" wider.

So stock is 16.6.5"

Legal Max would be 17x7.5"

Feel free to correct me if im wrong.

haha puts me in a bit of trouble. i thought it was 2" and 2"? anyone know for sure? i have been pulled over and cops said to me that I got pretty wide tyres on there but did not say about them being illegal.

I believe the 1" out is referring to "track", you cannot change the TRACK of your vehicle more than 25mm either side. That said, if you want to go 2" wider you would need to get the correct offset so the TRACK doesn't change by more than 1" and hope you can clear it on the inside :D

i think that you'll find that bubba is right

that, and the tyres cant actually protrude past the base print of the vehicle

so all my mates with those big muddies on their 4bees are actually illegal...

it used to be up to 7.5" in width, unless larger was a factory option.

and 2" increase in diameter as long as the rolling diameter didnt change.

now it is 1.3x the largest factory optioned rim width, providing the track doesnt increase by more than 25mm, and that it doesnt foul any part of the car.

and diameter can be anything that will allow for the same size rolling diameter.

also staggered sizes is still a big no-no, unless it came standard, but none of us drive porsches, so it doesnt matter!

ps. DPI is your friend, if in doubt ask them, rather than get 4574987504579437543750435 answers off the forums. :huh:

It is on a percentage ruling now from VSB 14 - National Code of Practice for Light Vehicle Construction and Modification (NCOP) with the link to DPI below, with V35's and 19's being an option you can go so big now and stay legal.

I like the sound of that :whistling:

My Chaser has staggered sizes standard, as does Supras etc, so I can have (according to 1.3x) up to 9.5 wide, which is nice, since I have 9.5"s on the rear, had wondered on the legalitys of it :)

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
