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?

    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
    • Well, yeah. But I just expect everything other than my car to feel like a bucket of shit anyway. I still miss my Alfa 116 so much though. You could run over a 20c piece and tell whether it was heads or tails.
