hey guys im ordering a set of xd9s for my gtst

18x9 +30 and 18x10 +38

ive got gtr front guards so i no the front has no problem sticking out

but im just worried that the rears are going to be sticking out of the car

too much...

is 10 inch for a gtst too much?

my other alternative is to get my guards rolled add camber so it look like its stil under the guards

cheers everyone

They wont stick out at all, you'll find that they will both be way inside the guards.

If you get 18x10 +18 for the rear it will be a perfect fit, you will just need the rear guards rolled. As for the front you have GTR guards so im not quiet sure what they will fit?

yeh with gtr guards you'll want +18 on the front but all same size on gtst duno about that..

disclaimer: flame all you want about my weak offset or wrong tyre choices or w/e. i dont mind im jsut giving old mate some info:

i have CR kais, 18x9.5 +38 front and rear. I fit a 275/35 on the back with rolled guards and 2.2degrees neg camber

fronts i have a 10mm spacer cos the spokes didnt clear standard gts-t brakes, tyre is 245/40 with 1.5ish degrees neg camber and no guard mods (gts-t guards). lowered to sit about ~1cm between guard and tyres all round and its just touching the corner of the front tyres, any of a A:very light roll or B:halfa degree of camber or C: a 235tyre would all sort that easy imo.

my 2c

edit: just to be bleedingly obvious NO that isnt them in my sig pic :P

Ohh ok sweet :blush: the only

offsets I can get from work is 30 fronts 38 rears

or +18 all round but the + 18 is 2240 with out tires the +30s are 2500 with federals

all round I think I made my mind up :D

that is the most ridiculous thing i think ive ever read..

its cheaper but will look like shit so ill buy it? :down:

give ya a free tip its cheaper cos its no good you get what you pay for remember.. 18x9 +30 on GTR guards is a really bad idea man you'll regret it straight away go +18 just hunt out second hand with tyres if budget is a concern or save up more.. take advice from billy :)

Just to be sure lol but you know what

because of what you guys said I've decided

so ditch the cheap pair and buy the more expensive ones

with the better offsets :)

so now I'm looking at 18x9 +20 , 18x10+18

or

18x10 +18 allround

and I want to be scraping at wheel lock or when I have full load

so I'm leaning towards the 18x9 at the front

does that sound better everyone!!! Lol

now just need help with tires

alr33x dude I'm listing to you lol

ask billy re tyres but i think he runs a 245 on the 10s on the 9s you could go a 225 which isnt much stretch at all, i dont think you would scrub on full lock with the 10s gtr guards are huge my arches only cop a belting cos it sits lowif i raised it 10mm or shaved the inner lip of fibreglass would have no issues

id still say the 10s will be a nicer fit with gtr guards..

    • 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?
