Wheel Upgrade R33 Gts-t

[jonzie26]

Well i am looking at buying a set of Work Emotion XD9's for my skyline. the only problem that i get is that i haven't really got any idea of how to work out the offsets for the wheels. Firstly i dont mind if i have to use a spacer on the hubs but i would prefer not to, and secondly i want the wheels to have a lot of dish, front and rear.

One of my mates has get a set of WORK VS KF 18x9 (+26) and 18x10 (+20) rims and they have lots of dish and look awesome. follow the link to see pics http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Eo...98#entry3917898.

Now what i am wanting is something like his wheels but obviously in the xd9s. I am looking at getting the size size wheels with the 18x9 in the front and the 18x10 in the rear. if you could help me out with this offset problem it would be greatly appreciated.

for those dimentions you will need guard work.

i run 18x8.5 + 30 and 18x9.5 +30 and this is a good place to start as those dimentions sit perfectly flush (read a couple mm out) on my s1 gtst.

you need to think about the possibility of paint cracking etc.

for the bigger dish you could go 18x8 +20 front and 19x9 +20 rear with good results (this will still need a MINOR roll and probably strechy's)

Hey bud, We have a set of work emotion XT7 in stock at the moment in white 18x8.5 +25 and 18x9.5 +17. Normal retail is $2250 + postage but I can do them for $2050+ postage as we are trying to clear some room for new stock etc. If you want the XD9 we can order them for you aswell.

Get the lowest offsets available in the XD9's. From memory i think its 18x9 +20 front and 18x10 +18 rear, or even a 17x9.5 +17 front. Front will fit fine with rolled guards, a 215 tyre and some negative camber. Rears will fit with a roll and slight flare with 235 tyres.

I couldn't find any good pics of a R33 with low offset XD9's, but here's a few tough pics of R32's with XD9's.

Green R32 has 18x10 +18 225/40/18 in a Federal 595 and 17x9.5 +17 federal again 215/45/17.

Silver R32 has 17 x 9.5 + 17 with 215/40/R17 tyres up front, not sure about the rears.

R33 has fronts 17x9.5 +12 with 20mm spacer so -8 with 215/45, rears are 18x10.5 +26 with 245/40

The R32's are perfect examples how good low offsets make a car look TOUGH

Give abu a PM. He's got some white XD9s on a purple 33 GTR. Ask for some pictures of them or even look for his for sale thread. Should have some pictures in there. I'll post them up if I stumble across them.
