Hi

Just a really quick question on 5Zigen 5ZR mags

I really want these for my R33 but just want to make sure they will fit before i go buying them

I'm interested in the 18 x 7.5

PCD 5/114.3

Offset +43

I have searched around here and believe that with this offset the rims will fit fine as there only 3mm more offset then the stock rims, just want to confirm that they will fit, and want to know how far inside the guards they might sit

I may have to space them out?

I'm also chasing pics if anyone has put these rims on there car as im very interested to see what people have done and how they look

Cheers

With those wheels, they will stick out 9.7mm from the standard wheels which are 6.5 +40mm (correct me if I'm wrong, it's not a number I really try to remember).

Depending on how low your car is, you might just have to roll the guards, but I must admit, those widths and offsets are pretty weak...

yeh there hell nice mags but will sit under the guards alot with that offset and wheel size

thats why i had the idea of spacing them out 15mm or so.

not sure yet really just want opinions and photos (if anyone has the same mags)

currently have R32 GTR mags, on the calculator going from them to the 5ZR's i had 7mm less clearance on the inside and 19mm more distance on the outside

car is on stock suspension at the moment but will drop it down a little when i get coilovers

yeh im not worried about it scraping, i just dont want the wheels to sit to far in the guards which it sounds like they will, on the back at least.

Was thinking of maybe putting 15mm spacers on the back and whatever i need in the front, that will bring it almost back to where they sit now

Anyone who has similar offset on there wheels could you please post what they look like/what youve done if uve spaced them out

Cheers

Sorry I can't help by posting pictures to show you how those width and offset wheels will sit, but I just want to say avoid using spacers if you can. Just buy the correct offset wheels in the first place.

Are those wheels you're after available in any other sizes?

nah in 18's thats the only size and offset there offered in

might have to search for alternate wheels then cause i didnt really want to have to use spacers

dont mind the koya inox R1's so might go for them as they have a little bit of dish to them

Look for another set of wheels mate, they are more suitable for a Honda rather than a Skyline with those pissweak offset and widths. It would look like absolute crap.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
