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.

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
