Advice Jarrod on this forum any form of aftermarket rims that are not light weight, forged, and mainly japanese you will get flogged for it, i got a set of 20inch wheels given to me for a present i have been hassled and abused for them on this forum until i took my avatar picture of because they were chinese. They looked great but on a GTR was sacrilege to have. lol

So the choice is yours if you like them and they look great buy them if you are going to wait and see what peoples opinions on this forum are and base your choice on that i think you are wasting your time as you will get haters, and others that think they know alot but dont. Do what pleases yourself.

Although you will loose performance as they usually are heavier hence why the purist only like light weight forged like myself i have a set of R34 GTR rims.

cheers,,Dave.

As MR GTR-32 said you will never please everyone but do what you like. As mentioned you will probably loose a little bit of performance with the wheels being quite heavy I think. But it depends what you are doing with the car.

My mate had 19's on his r34 and it looked good no rubbing but he didn't have superlows :D so you might get some when parking or something I'm not 100% though

sorry if im blind but 19 x ? the width and offset is were your difficulty may come from not the 19" side of things.

as mentioned above these wont be highly recommended by anyone because they are more suited to holdens but hey its your car.. they are quite cheap so dont expect much and the tyres will be useless if you like traction.

if your planning to just drive around and want some wheels that look better then stock then go for it.. you wont find much better for less.

but second hand rims might be a good option for u.

mate just food for thought... i bought second hand r34 gtr rims with yokohama S drive tyres, for just a small amount more than what you're planning to pay here. they are very light, and being 9" wide they grip very well and look mean. i've had nothing but kind comments from people to whom i've spoken about them.

those wheels will probably hurt your performance (not sure if that is a factor for you), and i would suspect the tyres they provide will be nothing special.

if you really want those rims of course it's your choice, but just know that it's worth shopping around :P

It's totally up to you mate. I've bought a set of 19" speedy rims from this company and they look good. The thing that ppl have to keep in mind, is that not everybody has 4k plus to spend on jap wheels, so what ever you can afford mate is up to you. I bought the rims only off them and put my own tyres on. Again I wasn't going to be spending an absolute fortune on tyres either, so I put a set of $180 tyres under her and away we went. Oh yeah, my car has 425rwhp and I don't have issuses with traction.

you dont need 4k for jap rims... unless your talking brand new..

i think in fairness he doesnt know alot about rims as he has left out the important details so i would say they are very good value for what they are.

$180 tyres on 19" rim

can u pls tell me brand and specs?

thanks.

Mate they are just a cheap tyre. 235 45 19. And I am talikng brand new. It's not easy finding a set of Jap rims that don't have rash on them for a decent price and that suit your ride. If they don't have rash on them they are still asking high prices for them. I went and checked out s/hand jap rims before settling with what I have now, and I will never believe anybody when they say,"has little rash" on them. Thats my opinion, not everyone elses and it is what I have experienced anyway.

235/45R19's are massive mate...you sure that's the right size?

Without widths, offsets and PCD it's going to be impossible to say.

Are you paying too much? It's hard to say. It's cheap for good 19" rims, but they're Speedy Wheels so that's not what we're talking about.

sup guys thanks alot for ur intuition.i have since ditched these wheels and went to 18s starcorp fusion from tempe and im glad i didnt get 19s coz my roads are shit here for a low profile tyre and i didnt get them for performance i got em coz im sick of stock wheels.any ways thanks jarrod.

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
