Plz Help! Need Rims To Fit Over Brembos That Aren't Over 7.5" Wide


Recommended Posts

hey i live in rockingham and was wondering if someone could help me out i have 34 gtr rims on my 260rs stagea but they are too wide apparently to pass inspection. The problem is i need rims that are legal but still big enough to fit over the brembo calipers 33gtr wheels would be ideal cause i know im prob not gna get stock 260rs wheels so if anyone can help me out i would be very greatful.

cheers

I have some 17x7 rims that may fit. Two of the four tyres are bald though, so if you're really desperate, you can borrow these and get new tyres. Keep looking around tho, hopefully someone has something more appropriate :unsure:

Try and source a set of 32GTR wheels.

If you have a genuine Stagea 260rs Autech, why can't you pass with the 33GTR wheels, as they are factory fitment. If the inspector doesn't know what Autech is, just explain that Autech is to Nissan, what HSV is to Holden and what FPV is to Ford. Also the tyre placard will show that the car is engineered to have 33GTR wheel.

why are they too wide ?

there is no legal width limitations now according to the traffic act unless they stick out the guards

contact the dpi for conformation coz my gtr is legal with 9" rims on it

according to the ruling a car cannot have a rim width larger then 7" wide, unless it came from factory larger, which in that case they cannot be any larger (ie from factory 8", then no wider is allowed)

nope, that laws abolished in favor of the ADR now, which is as gaz said.

now you can have 1.3x the largest factory option, as long as it doesn't affect track width by more than 25mm, and doesn't protrude from the guards.

so now a car standard rim of 16x8 eg r32gtr can now run 20x10's legally

R33's run 225's stock, so 285's are the largest you can go. :D (made my 275's nice and legal :))

also, the diameter rule is gone too, as long as the rolling diameter doesn't change, you can have whatever you like.

    • I mean I agree. I've seemingly never had issues and I have RS4's in the rain, but I drive pretty slow in the rain, and I commute around on the street and pretty much never push it. But it's not like you're going to uncontrollably slide off the street with them in the rain. At least here in Aus. And I say this before I drive to Tassie in Winter. AS above, the term "Semi" is a bit of a misnomer. The ContiSportContact7 is also a "Semi" or a "UHP" tyre. It's the same category as an AD09 in any case.
    • These are not semis. None of the tyres in that comparo are semis. They are UHP tyres. Perfectly streetable. I'm on my second set of AD09, after using a couple of sets of AD08R. On the street. Every day. I get 15-20 thousand km out of them, which is perfectly acceptable. They are a really nice tyre to drive on. I have few, if any, complaints.
    • You'd hope, if it came from ACS, that it wouldn't be that.
    • Or the brand new throwout may be unhappy...
    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
