R33 Gtr Offsets!

[abu]

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

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.

Thanks man

After some searching I found what I was looking for on GTR UK forums

18 x 10 + 18

I think they need to be about 1" wider!

Yo Abu,

Post some pics of the wheels you've got on now. Give me the specs and give me some time. I'll try to find something nice for ya.

Cheers

Hey man

Current wheels 18 x 9 .5 + 20 but they don't really sit very flush

I am looking at getting something like 18 x 10 + 10 or even 18 x 11 + 10 !!

Pictures coming this weekend

Well i was told 18x10 +18 is ideal.

I have bought some work xd9s and am waiting on some 275 18 35s to get here. should have them on by next weekend.

I can get some 19 x 10 + 19 and 19 x 11 + 11

Thoughts?

yer i will mate!!

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

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.

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
