Sorry for starting another wheel fitment topic, i Know R34 GTR rims fit easy @ 18x9 +30 and most people agree that 18x9 +20 with minor guard rolling will fit OK.

Now my question...

Will 18x10+ 20 fit on a Series 2 260RS?? Lowered and camber arms rear.

i havnt got the car yet so cannot try them on, but have come across these rims, They have 265's on them which i dont think will fit. im thinking 245's max.

Im not worried about rolling guards or stretch or the wheels sticking out, infact i want that. I love a good wheel fitment :blink: Just wana know if they will fit inside the guards without rubbing on the strut or sticking out a mile. I know they will sit aprrox 15mm further in then the GTR rims and 25mm further out??

help guys??

OK, I'm confused, 15 + 25 = 40 mm and increasing the width from 9" to 10" is only 25.4 mm.

From memory, 10" @+20 mm (compared to 9" @+30 mm) is 2.7 mm further out and 22.7 mm further in. I don't think the 2.7 mm further out is going to be a problem. But 22.7 mm further in will be, due to the shockshaft on the rear.

Cheers

um...check the fitment thread

i havea pciture of my car with a 18x10 +20 on the rear

with a big roll, it still poked, and rubbd the shock on hard hard turns, or if i had a load in teh back

while it looks cool, i dont reccomend it.

i went 9.5 +3 all around

hey Neil from my understanding the autech has alot different wheel fitment on the rear to the normal rs4 so i wouldnt judge info from fitment on a rs4 it wont be the same, the autech allows for more aggresive offsets but unfortunately i dont have one myself so i cant help with specific fitment.

Neil i feel your pain brother... crrently trying to find wheels that fit MY 260, being that you need to run different offsets but same widths front and rear. Im looking at a set of wheelsthat a friend has on his R32 GTS4. They are a 20x9 wth diffrerent offsets front and rear to suit the GTS4 setup which seems to be akin to the 260.

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
