Aim: To sit perfectly !!

Well 235 is minimum legal width you can run on a 9" rim and 265 is the widest. I dont think it'll sit in the guards. My mate has just bought R34 GTR wheels for his R34 GTT (18X9 +30) and they sit perfectly inline - fronts slightly out. He's running 225s front and 245s rear.

Won't have to roll guards them or anything.

They will fit. Run 235/40R18 all the way around, they are legal for the rim, will look good on the rim and doesn't effect your overall rolling diameter all that much. They are also a reasonably common size and you can pick up some good tread patterns without breaking the budget IMO (Toyo Proxes T1R, Bridgestone RE001 etc.)

you should fit 245/40/18 with that size & offset.

how lowered is your car?

Its on tein coilovers so i can set it to whatever.

But i plan to have it sitting around 1cm under.

Like 1cm of rubber in teh guard if possible.

So perfect/tough kinda look :whistling:

So you think 245/40/18 all round will get this look?

Or will it scrub?

it will fit... go for 235/40/18 all round as its a fair whack cheaper than 245 and the difference in width is absolutely f**k all... you will not notice any extra traction from a 245

I strongly suggest you go 235/40/18 front and 235/35/18 for the rear. I have this on my R33 and I find the tyres just sit slightly out but not outrageously and they look mean in my opinion.

It's all I have right now, sorry. This is with 235/40/18.

i have yokohama s-drives in the same size on the same rim, and they look a fair bit more stretched than this. i know not all '235' tyres are exactly the same width, maybe compare different brands side by side before you buy.

Where/what is the best place to get tyres around sydney arear. Around $200 each tyre.

Thanks

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
