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

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
