definatley need wider rears

fair enuf that the real ones are expensive but if you look thru most of the importer sites your able to pick up good second hand ones with decent tyres pretty cheap.

there is no substitute for the real thing

Got my new rims today, Black GT-C's 18x8. they have Hankook rubber on them anyone had any experiance with them? they seem to be good tyres.

Also, can you get camber kits for Skylines/

Cheers

Your new rims look decent :( imo i woulda chosen em with negative offsets

the hanhook tyres are fairly good, im running with ventus r-s2 which has decent grip but, i wouldnt recommend it for wet conditions well just gotta slow down a bit :wub:

I had a set of Hankook RS2 on my evo, 10 minutes of hard driving saw one fall appart over the span of 1500 meters. The bendix ultimate pads were also on fire, two top of the range products I will never buy again.

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
