I have 17x8.5 +25 all round.

Fronts fill the guards quite nicely, rears could come out a tad more (except would then need guard rolling)

Overall clearance etc is pretty good, few scrubbing problems.

Dont know how much difference going up to an 18 would make if you were running a 40 profile tyre (im running 45s)

what are these rims worth? got a mate who is after a set for an s15

They shouldn't be to expensive for you guys to get them, compared to here in Norway-> paid around 5000AUD for rims and tires.

I'd got 17" x 8" the rear definitely can come out 1" more

it's a tight fit, no scrubbing

I really like your rims black_gtst,

I need some dish, what's the brand/name/size/price?

they starcorp fusions, 18x8.5 and 18x9.5. they pretty reasonably priced, around 2300 with half decent tyres i think.

offset im not sure of but tires kinda depend on suspension setup. generally speaking 235's front and 265s rear prividing car is not too low or soft.

ah ok fair nuf, i got tien coilovers, the ha ones i think (damper adjusted hard) the car is low but not ridiculously low.

    • Also seen this as an option 
    • I get you, we’ll see I’m aiming for 200ish kw now and hopefully 300rwkw down the line after some upgrades maybe like headstuds, E85 flex fuel etc  so trying to make it final for that now, I can get a GTT airbox for $280 so it’s not too bad but not sure if there’s better ways to spend that money. I seen online they say pod filter which isn’t enclosed isn’t good especially for a plus T.      hard to say what to do
    • Meh. How much power can you make from a +T anyway? I wouldn't have though it would be enough to challenge the airbox. It's not as if it's tiny compared with the turbo one. As to putting a pod in a stock airbox .... it's not the filter element that would be restrictive. It would be the air inlet to the box that would be the narrow point, which you could open up regardless of what element was inside. On my R32 I opened up the sort of triangular opening in the bottom front corner of the box, deformed (heated, moulded) some 4" stormwater pipe to fit to that opening and punched a 4" hole down through the inner guard to the spot where the stock intercooler used to be. This was purely in the search for a cold intake, but you could do something similar if you need to open up the inlet side of it. The AFM tube size is the same for both NA and turbo, so the outlet from the airbox is same same anyway. If you're going to do the right thing, then an aftermarket ECU won't care about the AFM (ie, you can get rid of it). But even if it was still there, people pull >300rwkW through them all day, and I suspect you won't be going there.
    • R34 RB25de Neo by the way ^ 
    • Doing a +T on my car and I’ve read the precious forums lots of mixed reviews from sometime back.  checking if anyone has any ideas for airbox or enclosed pod filter or solutions?  I was thinking stock GTT box but some say it’s restrictive? I seen some people try fit in a pod in the box anyone done that recently?  not any good enclosed options ? Thanks
