With a gtr is it ok to stagger the width's front/rear or should they both be kept the same?

Another question is how wide can I go before the tyres will scrub on full lock? I know the factory wheels are 9 and it looks like theres alot of room in there but im not sure, would a 10 or 10.5 be ok for the front?

Will a wider tyre affect the steering or turning circle at all?

Thanks in advance :P

Don't stagger. Keep same sized tyres all the way around. ATTESA doesn't like different rolling diameter tyres.

As for wheel width. You can go to 10.5" ... There are even some 11" wheels that fit. Depends on the offset and tyres of course.

18x10.5" +12,+15 or +18 will all fit perfect.

Most people keep the same width all round because it's easier to keep the same rolling diameter.

Whether or not they'll rub will depend on the offset of the wheels. I've seen a few cars (on the net) running 10.5" wide. Just get the perfect offset for it and it shouldn't rub.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
