Ok, I came to the conclusion that i need some new wheels with more dish so i thought i would ask you guys what fits under a 4 door without flaring ( and prefer not to roll as i dont want to crack the paint, But will if needed). Something in a 17 X 8/9 i would imagine but some help with offsets would really help.

Thanks for your help.

Front 17 x 8 +35

Rear 17 x 9 + 42

front offset looks crap though, but I don't think you can get much more offset than my rears, my rear rims are around 1/2 cm from my hicas rack.

I think the insides of my rears are rolled though, but not flared

^^^ your doing it wrongggggggggggg^^^^^^^^^^^

Most rims (each rim is different, this is just a gernalisation) the wider and lower the offset you go the more dish it will create. A +45 9 inch rim will usually have next to no dish while a +5 9 inch rim will have a noticable amount. Remember this is just a generalisation as each rim differs - some create taper, some have different disk clearance etc et

PM Nisskid and he will be able to tell you exactly what you need being a 32 4 door owner.

Here is a link to my mates 4 door to give you a rough idea to work off -

There is plenty of infomation on here and nissansilvia for 32 4 doors and rims.

yep thats a fail.

mate get 17*9 all round with an offset between 24 to 16 depending on how baller you want to go (or how much guard work you want to do)

17*9 + 24 would be nice, and would just stick outside the stock guards ;)

edit - with that said, r33 GTR wheels look sexy on 32s (17*9 +30)

if you want maximum dish with aggressive fitment, something around 10" +22 with 235 stretched onto it, standard camber arms (decent amount of camber), then on the front 9" +15 with 215 stretched on, with a decent amount of camber.

yep thats a fail.

I'll agree my front offset is shithouse, but i don't particular want my rims sticking out of my guards, and the rears have a reasonable amount of dish

nisskid, is that yours in the last pic? looking tuff bro. how'd you go about doing your guards? i'm after a simliar roll/flare on mine. did you just use a bolt on hub guard roller and bog? and also how far can you roll 4dr rear guards withou getting a pressure dent? the swage through the middle should mean you can get a heap more than silvias etc? only limiting factor would be the door

yeh it's what mine looked like about a year ago, looks a bit different now lol

that was just pulling the flare out with some clamps, then bogging. honestly i probably wouldnt recommend doing it again, it really doesnt give u a lot of clearance with the shape of 32 guards. i pulled mine a decent way, but i know of mates who've popped their rear 4dr guards, as i personally havent popped mine myself, not sure how far u can go before it does.

hey guys, im looking at buying some new wheels for my 4 door but its a 4 stud ....

is the offsets different in N/A's due to smaller brakes ??

and what would be perfect size and offset to fill out the guards without modifying the guards at all ??

ive read somewhere that if you get 18's they will clear the brakes and you wont need to worry about offset??

im just really confused so yea

cheers guys

Nope.

But you will find it can handle more dish as the NA 32 4dr's had shit house tiny brakes.

I'd upgrade brakes to the Type M items which are the R33 brakes.

Then if you had enough cash do the 5 stud hub conversion and then the world is your oyster.

I had 17 x 8 +18 on the front and 17 x 9 +24 on my old 4dr.

But as nisskid has stated you can go wider and lower offsets.

hey guys,

found some rims i like and that will fit my budget (either koya drift teks or koya rg teks).

will 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 +34 all round fit under a 32 N/a 4 door Without Modification ??

if not will 18x8 and 18x9 +34 fit ??

cheers

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
