Rate These Rims

[SkyHi_33]

haha thats fair enough, who did your guards?

[dark.sky]

got em on,

heres the details:

work vs xx

18x10 front +13

18x12 rear unknown offset (there was no stickers on em and i couldn't be arsed measuring for now, just wanted em on)

20mm rear flare will just cover the tread on the stretched tyre but rim will still stick out, front will be fine with a 15mm flare.

and nisskid, take a look at jms old r33 skid car, that had flared gtr guards on it...

in fact i have a pic of it uploaded here:

not many things make a 33 look good as its a very bubbly and weird shape to begin with, but those flares on gtr guards are hawwwt.

Holy mother of god.

That first picture is porn.

did them myself, but will be going fibreglass wider guards, easier to repair, and by repair i mean replace haha. will just put a new pair of guards on every time i hit them.

Just be careful you don;t pop the pannel in at the top when you stretch the guard to flare the wheel arch. i think with the amount that the guard has the be stretched in this case it would be better to cut and fill the guard at the wheel arch.

picked these up for 300 today, polished them a little

R32 GTR 17inch x 9.5inch wide wheels, designed by uwe jean ballou

will fit on my Marshal Matrac 235/45/17 tyres after a little more polishing.

perhaps paint the centre? black, grey or white?

polish more & more and fit + wheel align ready for Mallala

Good son of rajab those rims are stupendously ugly... no wonder u got them for $300... they should make pretty good track rims but argh, my eyes....

[Dohmar]

Sorry man

Those rims >almost< make me not want to own an r32 gtr becos u have said they're associated with a 32 gtr. i feel like ive been raped n stuff... :~(

But its got dish, therefore them wheels are baller as.

Probably paint the centre black though it does look fine as is and it'd probably suit something old school - although, do fit them to the Stagea and see how it looks - may or may not look good.

[scandyflick]

im in agreeance with ben. definitely not a fan. but shit, for 300 bucks, cant really complain.

[TALBO]

Who gives a shit what they look like if they're solely for the track...?

cleaned up all the rims with stone grinding drill bits, and sanded what I could

cleaned up the gutter rash with angle grinder sandpaper disc

painted the inside black, and the outside

bit dodgy but never mind I'll try another coat of black in an hours time

then a can of clear coat, rip off the masking tape and polish the dish some more
