does anyone know how wide u can go with wheels and tyres on an r32 gtst b4 they start rubbing on guards standard suspension

I've got 17 x 8's all round, and the fronts rub only if you hit a bump under hard braking. I've got 235/45R17 rubber on them, but when I next get a set of new tyres I'm going to change to 225/45R17 up front so I can lower the car without it rubbing (it currently rubs the suspension arm, and not the guard).

As far as the rears go, you could probably get away with 17 x 9's, but you may need to get the guards rolled.

Once more just for luck..... IT DEPENDS ON THE OFFSET.... you could have 205's rubbing if you had the particular offset to cause that condition.

you need to know the offset of the wheels you want to put on, then asking if they will fit a particular model car is a question that can actually be answered. Without an offset you can only find out by putting them on. All the other answeres in this thread are just confusing the issue

    • Thread bump, again! Although, no bad news this time. Posting for the sake of possible root cause. Basically, I rebuilt it (mostly stock), installed Haltech + sensors, had it running fine on new ECU.  Still not really understanding why it cracked pistons last time. Got to tuners, and while checking timing, noticed +-10deg of timing scatter while revving. Changed CAS, and it was rock solid. While not definitive, can't imagine seeing 20+ psi with that amount of scatter would be a good thing. Also glad I found something.   Bit more of a run down; Carried out a stock rebuild, a set of stock pistons, out of a spare bottom end. Everything stock apart from head studs and oil restrictors. (so I can pretend I didn't let the Nissan out, ha.) Armed with the measuring gear and FSM, set about doing overhaul. Oil restrictors as per oil control thread for a RB25, stock oil pump, drifting. Head drain/vent from rear of head, to passenger side of sump above oil level. Two dash 10 vent lines from drivers side of sump (unused atm) Hi octane style cam cover breather kit Splash covers over last 2 cam caps. Both breather lines from cam covers to vented to atmosphere catch can, not plumbed back into sump (wanted to see what it was actually breathing). Got it run in (did about a 1000km) no to low boost scenario, As I had questions over old ECU setup. Installed haltech +sensors for flex Retune on E85 (finding CAS Issue along the way), made 300rwkw at 20psi, out of wastegate. Did a drift day the next day (yes, it was a big weekend!) and was checking catch can throughout the day, ZERO blowby. I mean nothing. Lines from cam covers are not even wet. Done a bunch of street driving, spirited and catch can is still dry. Early days I guess, but pretty happy so far. Also now run 10w60, up from the 10w40 that I used to run. Oil pressure is significantly better, especially when hot (as you would expect)      
    • Thanks buddy. I thought it was a server storage thing. 🤣
    • Perfect! Thanks for this, both look like great options!
