hey guys, i was deciding where to go with wheels on the m35 when it lands...

atm its got skyline wheels on it 18's

post-22208-1277013187_thumb.jpg

post up pics of what wheels you like on m35's or what wheel you HAVE put on your m35!

also, because its awd. does it mean i have to run the same rim size and width's all round?

Edited by bLaQ.bOi

Regarding width, yes. Rolling diameter seems to be very critical, not the 2-3% variation that other attessa equipped vehicles seem to allow.

If you're looking for a new home for those 18's when you find replacements, let me know, I'm after a set of those.

BTW, the car looks great, you must be busting to get your hands on it!

Cheers, Dale

yep ill definatly be selling them

if i decide to keep the car, or sell it and go after one with a sunroof like i wanted. im not sure

if i decide to keep it, it will be getting a respray asap. ill keep the colour on the low atm still trying to decide!

so need to run the same wheels. that sucks lol

anyone got any pics of thee cars with gangster meshies on them haha

vxss?

I'm sure there's a fella on here for NZ, coincidentally White with the Nismo kit, had 19x10 or 19x11 mesh of some sort, with seriously pulled wheelarches and very low. Maybe someone else can remember, his looked very tough indeed.

Yeah I reckon 19 - 20" for the M35, those arches are so big that they need some size!

To get a flush fit i used 19 x 8.5 +22 offset. these just fit under the guards without any rolling, and have plenty of clearance on the inside.

So you could definitely fit 9.5 +35 under the guards, but might be tight on the inside of the fronts. (there is loads of inside room on the rears) but I wouldnt recommend staggered on the M35

Here is how the 8.5 +22 offset fit.

That looks awesome dude! Love the wheels, that's how I'd like mine to look.

Can I ask what size your tyres are? Is that with standard ride height as well?

Cheers.

Thanks mate :rolleyes:

Tyres are 225/40 19 Which is still a bit small from what I recall, so my speedo is off by a couple of %

It is a fair bit lower than standard, I have Tanabe adj. coilovers in there, so its probable about 2" lower than standard in those pics, but it sits a little lower now as the new springs have settled in.

Here is a shot of the front height (sorry its a crap phone pic I already had) - rear is the same.

They are sweet wheels! I had them on my C34 stagea. Awesome quality and great price

Only downside with the 8.5" is they dont have the concave spokes pulling in. Make sure you get the +20 offset (they come in +35 or +20)

I reckon the 9.5" +45 with a 10mm spacer would be sweet in the ARX that way you get some more dish and pull on the spokes. They are super aggressive and should just fit!

here is a pic of the 18x8.5" on my C34

yeh I need dish.......don't really want spacers on it though....need the wheels to fit under without scrubbing at the height it is atm.....want to be able to get on the track very soon!

Who is that Axis range available through in Australia?

From what I understand there is no distributor here in Aus.

I think Tempe Tyres brought a few containers in though a while back, so maybe try them to see if they have anything left. Late last year they had a handful of 19x 9.5 +45 in stock...

Jetwreck: I fricken hate spacers as well. get the right tool for the job!

speaking of which - has your nismo ECU arrived?

And on that topic, ecu's, has anyone spoken to Toshi on here regarding a re-map, I know he does the other Nissan ecu's and he's very good.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
