I've bought these ANZ 17'' multi 4 stud rims(4x100 and 4x114.3), they were on a Civic.

But I'm just wondering if it will fit my car (96 R33 GTS).

The rims are 215/45. And I've read it somewhere that the "lug size" might be different between a Honda and a Skyline, so will they fit? And can I use my current nuts for these rims?

hahaha thats precious.

dont buy wheels before you know they will fit.

4x114.3 is correct for a non turbo however, lug size has nothing to do with the wheels.

only thing of concern is offset and width - 215/45 only relates to the tyre, not the rim.

I have got R32 GTR's which are 9 iches without any problems.. but its a 32.. could there be that much diff?

BTW... need offsets to confirm..

If your talking about the r32 gtr wheels in your pics, they are actually 16x8 +20something (cant remember the offset)

The lower the offset the further away from the brakes/hub it will sit.

+30

Somone was saying that 7 inch front and back was the widest you could go..

So I figure that the I figure that the 33 should be able to run just as wide rims as a 32.. considering r33 GTR rims are 8's too I dont see the problem with running 8's.. thats what i was refering too..

Can we get what model civic? Because I know some civics run ~+40 offset (in which case they will be sweet as and will sit the same as stock wheels).. unless the previous owner bought a set of rims with retarded offsets..

just so you know r32 GTR Rims are 16x8 +30 R33 Gtr Rims are 17x9 +30 and R34 Gtr Rims are 18x9+30.

dont buy them, 215 wide tyres are ghey, and with a rim width of only 7" you wont be able to fit much bigger later on.

keep searching, plenty on nice rims out there

EDIT: just realised you already bought them, OOPS...

only one in this thread that is making any sense!

Those rims off the civic will look terrible, sunken fitments FOR THE LOSS!

If you have an R33 then you will need something with more of a negative offset for it to look any good! R33's have massive guards you will need rims at least 8" wide (+30 offset) or 9" (+35 offset)

Umm NO.

I've run 9 up front and 10's on the rear on my 32 gtst with no problems. Depends on the offset, the wider the wheel, the lower the offset needs to be.

knowing the offset is vital, stock R33 wheels are 16x6.5 +45ish, being 17x7's i wouldnt recommend going any higher than +45, my guess is those wheels are between +38 and +42 so should be fine. as mentioned GTS's have small little 2-pot calipers which are easy as piss to clear, so chances are the wheel will clear them fine.

pretty simply though, fit them and find out, put them on, push them hard against the mounting surface and make sure theres no obvious fouling, tighten 2 nuts up, spin the wheel around by hand, watch for it clearing the caliper, watch for it clearing the upper control arm at the front, at the rear look out for the tie rod end for the HICAS (shouldnt be an issue for these wheels), then turn the front wheels lock to lock and check for rubbing. if this is all good drop the car and turn the wheels lock to lock and slowly drive back and forth, get someone to stay close to the wheel wells and listen for any rubbing.

I got them fitted yesterday, it fits fine, no probs or what so ever.

and to be honest, i really don't care what people think, if its crap or looks gay.

coz at the end of the day, its my car and i like it with them on :)

heres a pic, its a little blurry:

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
