I have available 20" Chrome Spinners which I believe will fit Skyline, any one who has fitted 20 Wheels to Skyline might be able to advise the rim Width and Offset they run. My company imports these from the USA, we fit them mainly on SUV, however I am sure they would look mad on Skyline, have a look at the picture's attached and if any one wants to try out will do a special deal for the first one who gets me information in correct skyline PCD and ET in 20"

PCD = 5x114.3 (for 5 stud skylines, ie all turbo models)

Offset is different for GTR's, Gtsts and R32,33 and 34....

chaos - if they are something like that you'd want to make sure they had really good bearings and shafts mounting the outter assembly that spins.. Wouldn't want to be doing a good speed with these things on.

But if the outside isn't mounted separately then They're pretty cool. :cheers:

are these the wheels that when the car stops moving part of the mag still spins?

nah this aint them. I seen them on a 4x4 BMW down the coast was pretty mad stuff, thought this would be an american thing. You seen these before??

Yes they are! In fact these are commonly known as "Choppers". I was going to get em for the Benz, some 6months ago, but changed my mind. Well it good to see someones sellings these in AU. I really think they'll be a hit. Pretty pricy, in comparison but they look awesome when the car is stopped & the chopper is still spinning.

PS: If I remember correctly, I also think you can buy just the chopper which gets attached to your stock rim :D

I like them.. but you gotta have the car to match.

Theo fitted them to his X5 on the Coast and yeah they look the goods.. but I think he also came away with a defect for them.. (oh well)

would take a pretty special (different) skyline to make them really work. I tossed up fitting them to the Rx7 as it will also have a dedicated set of race rims..

and may still do so..

rim wise you are really going to get a set and see what you can do, what you are prepared to cut etc.. cos I don't see them fitting on and the car sitting nicely without significant mods..

and the car has to sit right over these.. or it will look terrible.

    • I'm thinking that this is such a small part of the problem that you could easily forego the vac pump and just achieve 90% of what you need, which is keeping the gate open when off boost. It's not as if there are not already techniques to keep a gate fully closed under boost. After all, you have boost. Just use a wastegate actuator that will allow you to apply the boost on the appropriate side, just like every external gate out there.
    • Heres another fitment photo. redrilled the pattern to 5x112, and threw my audi´s rims on. had to touch the upper control arms with grinder, because the "sharp corner" was sticking about 2-3mm on the tire path. i have the "fender lip" mostly cut off, otherwise these (too) would contact with it. 20x9.5 ET25 rear    265/30 20x8.5 ET20 front    255/30 they are temporary, and look too big for the chassis. searching for 19s to it.
    • From experience, it will come back to bite you haha.
    • Background: my BMW 225i hatchback (rebodied MINI/X1) came with 3x RE003 and 1x Goodyear Asymmetric something. The RE003 roared and slid around, the Goodyear side was quiet and grippy. Definitely my car was thrashed before it got sent to dealers. My brother also got RE003 all round on his old VA WRX STI, I wasn't impressed with them, car was loud so can't comment on noise. Anyway, Hankook stopped making/updating V12 Evo2. So bought S1 Evo3 runflats. Great daily duties tyre and not that harsh ride. Tyre reviews site/youtube rated them as best stopping in the rain and I believe them. Next set, Goodyear Asymmetric 5 non-RFT. It beat PS4 in tests and is like $100 cheaper, so put them on. Great tyre, more grip then S1 Evo3 but a tad noisier as expected, still rocking them. Next set I am looking to go runflats, probably the new Hankook Evo. Although the new Pirelli PZ5 did well in tyrereviews test. Or go Goodyear Asymmetric 6 which was top tyre last year. The V12 Evo2 on my gen5 Liberty GT wagon did great in cold condition (drove to snowy mountains for a day so my husky can feel his ancestor's roots). Super impressive performance for $120 each lol. Never skimp on tyres, brakes, suspension. There's old pics of my R31's crappy random brake pads bending in the caliper at Oran Park track day somewhere around here. Anyway, my 2 cents.
