I've got:

Front: 235/45 17"

Rear: 225/45 17"

Is it OK to put 235's on the rear too? Car is R33 GTS-T

I ask because I want to be able to rotate the tyres etc... =]

Thanks guys :)

Your car is RWD, you should be running wider tyres on the rear to give a bit more traction / grip.

As mad082 has said, there is nothing wrong with running 235's all round.

If I were your I'd run

Front: 235 / 45 / 17"

Rear: 235 / 45 / 17"

Then you can rotate when ever you want, every 6 months, whatever...

U need to search! 150 each delivered and I got yoko's from a trader on here!

hmmm i had yokohama's once. They lasted about 10,000kms and were completely bald. Less than 6 months. Never again. I like good traction but not that much. Maybe they have some that last longer but I've always heard of yoko's being really soft.

If your Yokohama's lasted you about 10,000kms and were really soft, then that would explain it.

Well it should last your more then 10,000kms, but I assume your tyres where on the way out, at the time.

Soft tyres are best for grip but have bugger all lasting time.

Hard tyres will last longer but for them to grip, they will need to warmed up, but soft tyres will still be better for grip.

Did you track your Yokohama's?

Or were they already on the car and running low on tread..?

Decent performance tyres for street cars should last about 2 years avg.

I had Yokohama ADVAN's, nice tyres but were getting low on tread then I went Kumho ECSTA's.

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
