post a pic up of the rims youre thinking about buying?

i got some multi spoke rims on my r33, no pics tho... just put em on last week. ill try get some for you tomorrow if i got time during the day :blink:

i think the speedy cheetahs i were gonna get were 18x8 on the front n 18x9 on the back i cant remember the offset but i think it was in the 30s i dont know much about offset so what woul be the best offset for me without rolling guards

ok ive seen these rims i like i was thinking off getting them in 18x8.5 on the fronts n 18x9.5 on the back now they come in a lot off differant offsets they are +15 +27 +30 +40 +42 what would be the best offset to go with without having to get my guards rolled or

heres the pic i promised hehe, and also you wont believe your luck!! my mate just got those for his s14. pic included, same sizes front/rear and all, apparently first in Aus to have them fitted.

mine are 18x9 +35 all round, 225/40 tyre front 245/45 rear... i would recommend around +25 front +18 rear for flush tough fitment or around there.

well what would i have to do to get them to fit the factory guards like do i get a smaller width do i get less offset?

i will be running stretched tyres so yer biggest wheel in all areas(size 18s, width?, offset?) that will fit factory guards using stretched tyres

cheers

Dude dont bother with china wheels, your wheels will set your cars look off imo :P I have r33 gtr wheels which are 17x9 +30 offset, and they dont have good enough fitment for me... something with like 17 or 18 X 9 with about a +20 offset will fit nicely under your guards(you will have to roll them) whats your budget for wheels? there are stacks of 2nd hand japanese wheels floating around that wuld look tough for under $1500!!! Good luck :(

Edit:- The 2nd set you posted up that the dude with s14 has look good for cheaper wheels!! so long as you get them in good offset like 18x9.5 +20 or there abouts. Also dont be scared to get your guards rolled or flared a bit :) will make the car look far more aggressive!

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
