offsets?

Measure the offset by measuring from the back of the rim to the face of the hub. That will give you backspace, and then you can work it out from there.

yes wat were they on?

and do you know if they would fit an r34?

do you wanna swap for 17s or you still want 18s??

im not that fussy as long as they look good

the rims came off a r33, so id say they'll do a 34

anyone is welcome to try em if they come to the coast

ok so ive been told its not negative its positive offset so that would make the fronts bout +40

and the rears bout +44

I measured the backspace on both sized rims

the 10 inch rims backspace is about 167mm

and the 11 inch rims backspace is 184mm

now im gonna need a hand to work out the offset

Measuring Wheel Offset

To calculate offset you'll need the following measurements:

Wheel backspace

Wheel Width

Wheel Center line (outboard flange to inboard flange measurement / 2)

Subtract:

Wheel center line from Wheel backspace to get offset.

If backspace is less than the wheel centerline the offset is negative

If backspace is greater than the wheel centerline the offset is positive

Tip:

To convert from inches to mm multiply by 25.4

To convert from mm to inches divide by 25.4

167mm approximately 6.6"

184mm approximately 7.25"

front offset with a 10" rim and 6.5" backspace

centerline is 10" divide 2 = 5"

6.5" backspace is greater then centerline, so positive offset

Find difference of backspace and centerline 6.6" - 5" = 1.6"

1.6" of positive offset = approximately 40mm

rear offset with a 11" rim and 7.25" backspace

centerline is 11" divide 2 = 5.5"

7.25" backspace is greater then centerline, so positive offset

Find difference of backspace and centerline 7.25" - 5.5" = 1.75"

1.75" of positive offset = approximately 44mm

You will proberbly find they came off a soarer or supra with that kind of offset.

well im not 100% on anything cuz shits hard to measure with tyres on, takin em into a rim shop on sat and getting em measured and stuff there without tyres on to make sure of everything and i'll repost proper sizes

    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
    • Shock tower brace is in +5Kw....LOL
