People, any ideas on what cat would fit 205/50/16 tyres, assuming std wheels? I know this sounds topsy turvy but I'm thinking of buying rims that are right for me that come with tyres that are slightly undersized for me. I hope to sell the tyres, and to know what they will fit or be suitable for would help.

Any suggestions?

hi.

what u r asking is will 205's fit on a std skyline rim?

im pretty sure they would! but i wouldnt go and smaller in the tyre dept. std rim width of a skyline 16" rim, is 6.5''..

ive seen 225's and 215's on a std rim. i cant see why they cant be stretched to fit. a tyre shop could tell u.

I think that's the standard size tyre for a 32 gtst.

Only problem you'll run into running smaller tyres would be a faster speedo reading. It says you're going 100km/h, but really it's 95km/h for example.

Edit: Didn't see the above post. I think it's 225mm wide standard with a larger profile.

Thanks Adam and Trust33. They come off an 8" R32 GTR rims and the 205s are too narrow for this rim. I've seen 6.5" GTST rims that were fitted with 225/60, and the tyres looked oversized to me. If GTST rims are 6.5" I reckon 205s are OK, but not sure about the profile.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
