i have 1 month old ROH DriftR wheels/tyres

front 18x8 (tyre Falken ZE512 235/40)

rear 18x9 (tyre Dunlop LM701 265/35)

they fit my R33 no rubbing, reason for sale is due to change of jobs my wife will have to drive it now & then & if you see what she has done to VT wagon mags you would now why (she is a good driver just scraps gutters parking).

offers over 2K accepted, don't waste your time offering under that because i will just keep them.

if you need pic go to ROH web site.

justinfox... you don't have to have all the wheels the same size, as long as the rolling radius is the same. Alot of people have experienced problems with their ATESSA by not having the the wheels the same (rolling radius).

you can have rims that are smaller, and tyre walls that are larger, etc. But this is a REAL hassle to arrange, so it's best if you keep tham all the same size.

For your interest here is something I found a while back...

http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

This lets you try different combinations of tyres / rims and gives you the rolling radius, when compared to stock rims it will tell you if your speedo is going to be out and by what percentage.

This also shows that no 2 combinations are identicle, unless you want to put something like 185/60/15 on your GTR (which won't even fit around the brakes!).

After this, as zRoyz states, you then have to take the cars setup and balance into consideration, and this is where the offsets are important.

There's more to fitting new rims than 'these ones are nice'.

Good luck with the sale zRoyz, these rims look great. A mate of mine DJR33 put a set on his car a few months back!

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
