abu Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 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 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/229132-r33-gtr-offsets/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSI Parts Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 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.

abu Posted July 22, 2008 Author Share Posted July 22, 2008 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!

Adz2332 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 i was under the impression you shouldnt stagger sizes on GTRs.... Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/229132-r33-gtr-offsets/#findComment-4031901 Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam-__- Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 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.

ferni Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 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 http://ferni.net/photos/Cars/0802_Ferni_GT...30/target0.html Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/229132-r33-gtr-offsets/#findComment-4033334 Share on other sites More sharing options...
