Hey guys,

I have D1R's on my car and am thinking of selling the front 18x9s and putting the rear 18x10 +22 wheels on the front and then going for a new pair for the rear in a wider offset.

My question is, will i have any issues running 18x10 +22's on the front of my car? Im not worried about tires rubbing guards or any of that, im wondering whether i will have any problems with the inside of the wheel rubbing anything like my steering arms etc...

If you have an R33 GTST with 10inch fronts please advise!

Much appreciated.

what are the offset on the 9" you're taking off the front?

get under the car and check their current internal clearance then use the wheel offset calc to work out how much further in the 18x10 wheel's inside face should sit. this is obviously ignoring what is going on with the outer face and guard, and will really only give you a basic idea of whether it will work or not.

or even better.... seeing as tho you already have the 18x10 on the rear, why wouldnt you just trial fit and see how it goes...?

Yeah ill be trial fitting them on one of these days.

Well im running 3 or 3.5 degrees negative camber on the front plus i will have stretched 235/40's on the 10s... so i think the very top of the wheel will be sitting at pretty much the same spot it is now with the non stretched 235s on the 18x9s +15 offset.

Last time i move a topic of yours to the correct area.

5th time in as many months.

If you cannot take the time to post the thread in the correct section, it will be locked and posting rights removed.

Creating work for Admin because you 'cbfd' is not a good reason either.

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
