ye, well I'm not about to go and buy 2 more TE37s just for the sake of offset, though I think I'm going to have a problem when my ATTESSA is working again with having staggered fitment anyway blah

You should be fine!

why not? once you have jap rims, then secondhand jap rims are a freeforall... just sell 'em for the same price as the next set you are buying

if you're using spacers, make sure you get the washers on them to stop them moving around and they won't mess your wheel balance up. if possible get ones with hub bolts, they're "safer" than just slip on's and don't move around at all, but you'd need a 15mm+ spacer for that, which might be too much.

but yeah, nothing beats choosing the right wheels with the right offset.

too much effort haha, yeah I'd never use slip ons, an R33 here had a wheel fall off due to having fark all thread and having the wheel nuts come off LOLZ.

Here's a pic to show fitment as it is currently :

Rear looks decent and could go more low!

your talking about slip on spaces hubcentrics bolt on to ur existing hub and give u 5 new threads so you do not lose any thread and if his wheels fell off with hubcentrics then a retard tightened them.

deff need to sort out the front and slam that tractor. john deere reprezent!

Here's a pic to show fitment as it is currently :

yeah, rear is fine. front needs a little more out... 15mm to 20mm? then roll the lip on the guards and drop it by just under an inch, should leave minimal gap, you don't have to run stretch tyres, shouldn't have scrapage on lock or over bumps... but it'll look tough. probably will get defected for height though cos the bottom lip of the front spoiler will drop under 10cm.

alternatively if you don't give a fuck, then do this:

18x9.5+15 front

18x10+20 rear

near perfect fitment for R32 narrowbodies. maximum wheel width, no fouling on suspension, and with a roll, no scraping.

thats AWESOME!

wheel sizes noted :stupid:

is that yours?

lol nah, mine's 6 different colours and runs stock GTR wheels atm... one day I'll get off my arse, fix the ABS system that's causing the front passenger side brake to permanently clamp on, and paint n panel it and throw on some wheels.

or I could sell it as is and drive the camaro when it gets here.

seriously cbf with the skyline atm.

lol what size tyres are those?

Im running 17x9 +30 with 255/40's and no chance that will tuck under the guards with -0.5deg camber & rolled lip

hehe that does look sex, I like my ride height lol, no scraping on speedhumps or police attention for me! I actually like it that height, no scraping on speedhumps or police attention for me, and if I park too close to teh kerb, there's about 2mm of clearance to the front spoiler lol.

I would have thought that if I get the fronts to stick out further, that I'd have trouble with it fouling on full lock etc ^_~

As it is, the exhaust just clears 10cm, don't really have much fine adjustment re height, the coilovers are only circlip adjustable! More concerned with handling tbqh.

    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
