Your last sentence is a bit confusing, but if you change your ride and by the sound of it you have coilovers, any height adjustment will generally require a alignment after.If you want people to help you with your questions type them properly.......

I think what he is trying to explain is everytime you lower the car, the wheels will start to camber in which allows for more aggresive wheel offsets to be used without any guard mods.

This is from personal experience - optimal offsets lowered approximately 340mm all round measured from center of wheel to guard.

18x8 +30; 18x9+30

18x8.5 +35/+30; 18x9.5 +38/+35

The above with 235 and 265 front and rear rubber respectively will require no rolling of guards. Fronts may have slight scrubbing on inner plastic guard on full lock if lowered excessively. Just quoting offset of wheels without reference to wheel width is useless.

factory GTT wheels are 17x7.5 +40 all round.

Well unless the 1000's pairs of factory GTT rims i have seen are are duds, i swear they are +35.even on my 180sx has Gtt wheels which say +35 on the inside of them.But anyway

Post a pic of the wheel and we'll tell u if they are indeed the GTT wheels you are refering to.

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
    • Hey mate, really appreciate the help. Have been looking pretty extensively myself and was certain they were retro fitted, but then ended up finding a 4 door with what looks like the same side skirts or at least the closest I’ve seen.
