hi guys i know im probably being a pain but just wondering if these offsets would fit a 32 GTR?

18 x 7.5 +42 and 18 x 8.5 +37

maybe some one could give me an idea of what offsets i should be looking for to help.

cheers.

Those will look terrible mate. Also GTR's should always have same rim and tyre width front and rear because of 4WD.

R32 GTR offsets should be between +20 and +30 and go for some thing about 8-10inchs wide.

Read this thread. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Wh...0&start=480

as per (most) of the advice above those wheels are not 32 GTR suitable. with such a high offset there is a chance they will contact upper control arm or have brake clearance problems. plus they are narrower than the standard wheels so they will look worse than standard and be worse than standard performance wise too.

I would not put them on a GTR even if they were free....

firstly, you want equal sized wheels all round. and you don't want to go narrower than stock. that is just silly. something like a 17X9 or 18X9 or 9.5 would be fine. offset between +15 and +25 tops.

ok awsome thanks guys. im just looking for wheels for the car to run around on. its got wheels for the track, so just chasing something to weekend drive and stuff on

cheers again

My R34 GT-R wheels will be up for grabs soon ie 18X9

...but as Richard ^^^ said, +15 to +25 would be ideal

standard R34 GTR wheels are a great choice for a 32 GTR. they can be had for a very reasonable price, are 18X9 +30, are forged (made by BBS in japan for nissan) and they look very good. they should be at the top of the list for most R32s. :down:

edit: I had them on my old R32 GTR. I liked 'em.

I'm not 100 % if GTS-4 and GT-R are the same (my coilovers say BNR32 on them, and of course not having pumped guards, so I go off this), I've got 17 x 8.5 on the front and 17 x 9.5 on the rear in a +22 offset, the fronts sit in the guard about 5 mil at a guess? and the rears are right on the edge.

Would I be correct to assume that higher offset = cheaper wheels as well?

from new? no. 2nd hand it comes down to a matter of supply and demand, each wheel has a different market after different offsets.

Q. how would 18x9.5 +13 sit on 32R, ideally wud like something that pretty flush with the guards

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
