hey guys,

Im thinkin of buying new wheels with the following specs and im wondering if I'll have much trouble with them sticking out too much out of the standard guards on my R33 gtst...

I coilovers so height adjustment is not a problem.

Wheel specs:

F: 19x8.5 +20 R: 19x9.5 +25

From what I've been reading the front should be sweet but im not sure of the +25 rear.... any advice would be great

I've got 18x8.5 18x.9.5 +22 all round on mine, fronts are fine, scrub the guard linings on lock/decent bumps

rears stuck out a fair way, you'll need some flaring, how much depends on whether or not you're going for stretched tyres...I'm running 265's so I had to flare a fair bit.

well I thiknk I'll be running stretched tyres, so maybe 215 front and 235 rear?

The front guards dont need rolling on the 33 just the rear needs to be rolled if i wanna run 265's I guess,

who in melbourne rolled your guards and whats the costs?

thanks

this guys running 18x10 +22 which is 9mm more aggressive then your rear wheels.

looks like you'll have to pump your guards a little or running a bit of camber

Yes thats the kind of agressive look I want, im gonna roll rear guards and maybe run narrower tyres.. sumthing like 245 on 9.5" and 225 on 8.5"..

      Unpeeling the Orange

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
