Hey guys

I am looking at getting new wheels for my R33 GTR and am thinking WORK Emotions in 18 x 10 + 18

Just wondering how they would sit on an R33 GTR, weather they will be sticking out of the guards or sit pretty flush, looking at having them stick out slightly if possible?

Had the same wheels on my HCR32 and they sat quiet nice, out of the guards but not familiar with R33 GTR offsets

Pictures would also help

Thanks

Best to keep same tyre/wheel widths front and rear from what I've read.

18x10 +18's would be ideal for a bit of track action, but Abu doesn't want that. Going by his previous ride's wheels, he wants tyre on guard action. :)

Bit hard to tell, but going by those pictures, you could probably fit some 10.5 0 offsets. :(

Just think about what we thought about your last set of wheel's specs. In theory, they were WAY too extreme, but in reality, PERFECT! Don't be scared to get something that seems too aggressive. :D

i was under the impression you shouldnt stagger sizes on GTRs....

Yeah your not supposed to lol

Having had 9" R34 GTR rims (+18 offset too) on a R33 GTSt that sit very flush with the guards, I imagine they would be ever so slightly inside the guards on a R33 GTR.

R34 GTR rims are 18x9" +30....... not sure where you got +18 from.

I run 18x10.5" +18 and they sit pretty much flush... if you want them to stick out you'd want something even wider/bigger offset. I had some 18x10.5" +12 which sat out just a tiny bit, and i didn't like that, so i sold them. Maybe that would suit you.

To get wheels sticking out slightly the same as the 18x10.5" +12 i had, you would need either -1 offset in a 9.5" wide, or +6 offset in a 10" wide rim. Keep in mind the front guards are a bit wider than the rear.....

Here is a pic of my car on 18x10.5" +18

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
