handbrake Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 no, official weights coming, will post when available. will be more i'm afraid. i think the stock GTR wheels are 25.6 lbs F and 26.9 lbs R a dedicated track set up is coming though so won't effect performance where it counts.

Huy Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Looks great, Mark. Nice choice in wheels. I think a little height adjustment will really set it off.

Ali Sounds great, any indication on the Dunlop prices? and out of interest has anyone tried the dunlops at the track, relative to the bridgestones? really would like some hard data on how much quicker they are from those who have tried them Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/265225-wheels-for-street-spec/page/3/#findComment-4729664 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbo_R35 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I have the Dunlops on order with Taleb Tyres, they are going on in the next couple of weeks, a track day booked for late August, so I will let you know. I will back up their pricing, I shopped everywhere and these guys did the best price for me....I would 100% recommend them. Cheers, Gibbo.

John D Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I doubt very much anyone has run on the Dunlops as nearly all the cars here are premium spec which come with the Bridgestones.

Marlin Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Plenty of JDM guys have run the Dunlops, Giant has some hard data I believe, maybe PM him?

Max_ST-R Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Seen a few after market rims for R35, some nice, some not so nice, all I will say on the topic is that the Original factory rims look best and IMO are the best looking stock std factory rim on ANY production car at the moment. I can understand people want something different, but gee I reckon Nissan REALLY nailed the formula with the look of standard alloy.

R32_GODZILLA Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I found a couple of photos on my HDD but no idea from which source, but i believe they are TE37-g2's? Just love the look of them!

handbrake Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 (edited) We run the Dunlops, they are quicker everywhere yeah, going with the stock wheels and the dunlops for track use for now. Especially since people are starting to provide reasonable pricing for them. BTW Martin, the Midpipe arrived today, its in the boot for now...

Max_ST-R Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Monsuta, they are great looking rims, they could pass as a factory wheel. Also like the black wheels on 'Handbrake's' grey R35 they look great too.

Beer Baron Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 yep, I have tried both the dunlops and the bridgestones. not sure how "hard" my data is, but the dunlops are definitely better on track. better than some semi's i tried too on 19s. I reckon getting a set of dunlops on your stock rims for track and keeping your HREs with the bridgestones for street is a good idea handbrake.
