[Brad_32]

Go the +20 all round.

9.5s are not too wide for the car.

What size tyres are you looking to run on it?

[Brad_32]

Looking at 225/40's on the front and 235/40's on the rear! Was

From memory in 18x9.5 they come in +20 or +12. Either one of these will be well outside the standard front R32gtst guards, if your going wide body it won't be an issue though.

Sorry, if its a GTSt with std guards, even if the insides are rolled then its my experience that sized rim will not have a hope in hell of fitting on an R32 GTSt

At best you will get a 9" +28 or so on the front and a 9.5" + 36 or so on the rear. Even that will fill out the guiards and probably rub depending on ride height and tyres used.

A far better bet for a decent stance is 8.5" +30 fronts and 9" +30 rear. For the size tyre you want to run then they will fit that sized rubber better too.

I have very heavily pumped guards on my car and here is a pic of it with 350/340mm ride height and R34 GTR rims which a 9" + 30 all round They clear nicely with no rubbing. But you are talkign rims that are about 12mm wider and with a further 10mm offset. No way i can see them fitting with std guards!

im running that size on 33 guards and i could easily pull it another inch

33 guards are alot bigger than 32 guards though. standard GTR offset is about the limit for a 9" wide rim on a stock guard 32 GTS-t.

One of my mates got a 32 gtst aswell hes got 17x9+17 all round with in gaurds taken out and gaurds rolled! So im thinking more along the lines of 18x8.5+17 on the front! And 18x9.5+20 on the rear! Would that work! With 225/40's on the front and 235/40's on the rear!

9.5 +25 will retract by 2mm compared to the 9+17 that Brad32's mate is running

So do u think with the gaurds rolled and the inner gaurd removed they will fit??

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

well if your mate has 9 +17 and has fitted than then the outside will be look identical the inside will be 14mm more from memory

If you don't have stiff front suspension it will almost certainly scrub even with 8.5s

A lot of the people saying it will fit are running coilovers, no inner guards and have rolled the lips as well.

I put my 19x10.5 +15 LMGT4's on my mildly rolled guard 32GTS and it looked pimp, and nearly driveable!
