is your rolling diameter the same?...if not your not doing your transfer case and front diff any favours.

Yeah man!

Front is 235 / 45 / 17R

Rear is 245 / 45 / 17R

LOL! I made sure and my mechanic fitted them on and he knows what he's doing.

:(

just so you know, your rolling diameters are slightly different.

side wall measurment is calculated by (in the above example) finding 45% of 235 which is 105.75, and dividing by two (52.875). This is your side wall in mm, or pretty close anyway.

your other tyre is 55.125, its fark all and i dont know if it makes a difference but yeah...

I see.

Iam not to sure myself as my mechanic sorted out the correct tyres for me.

So what you just explained about the side wall measurements, is that also how to work out the rolling diametres..?

52.875 and 55.125

As you have worked out?

i guess it would be the above measurements x2 for the top and bottom side walls of the tyre + your rim diametre in mm. :rofl:

.....i think!

Alright cool!

Well I need new rear tyres soon, so I ask my mechanic to explain to me the rolling diametre and the rest.

Thanks everyone!

you should be using width same with tyres....245 all round 4 example... hmmmm regret selling my te's now :P

The front are abit smaller so I don't get any side wall rubbing against the tyres.

What wheels you got now?

    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
