Hi there ppl i was wondering if any1 can pls tell me (or where i could find out) the standard offset for my R32 GTS (non turbo, 1989, 4 stud)

the tyres i currently have on it are 205/60 R15 and im hoping to go 235/40 R18 Nankan NS2

The mags im thinking to buy are 18*7.5 Lenso Tenzo GT-6 from tempe tyres in syd

so to save time and money i need to know the stock standard offset in order to confirm if they will fit, also if any1 wants to give any feedback on the choices i have made pls dont hold back & or websites for mags that would fit my car (4 stud, 4x114.3 etc)

thanks in advance

FYI already checked the current wheels/mags on my car & unfortunately cant find the offset unless of course the little bastard is hidden somewhere specific & some1 knows where...

you don't need the standard rim offset to know if new ones will fit. the offset will vary depending on rim width.

however, to answer your question

how wide are the standard rims? i'm guessing around 6" wide, they would be around the +40mm mark.

for a 7.5" wide rim you want around +32 to +35mm to sit close to flush with the guards.

if you check the suspension & braking section there is a stickied thread up top. inside there'll be links to an offset calculator try that to compare what dimension changes you get from going from one rim to the other

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
