Hey guys

i found a set of te37 18x9.5+12 and i want to put 235f ,265r and im wondering if they can fit?

I dont mind rolling the guards.i thought a lower offset makes the te37 look aggressive.

all help is appreciated.Simo

hay dude.

i have 18x9.5 te37s front and rear on my r34 +15 and i have rolled, flared and pumped guards

i run 245s f and 265s r

fronts still stick out a tiny bit, rears r sweet. (front guards are pulled same a gtr +25 mm and the rears are pulled more than that coz i used to have deep dish 19'sz)

i have 18x9.5 +12 on my gtt

needed camber arms and that was about it... i rolled the guards just beacuse i could didnt really need doing.

you will be alright

i didnt use camber arms coz i want my wheels to sit flat on the floor for better grip

You will need to roll the front and rear guards, this shouldnt be more then $50 a corner by a shop.

You will need to lower the car to fit them, and it would be best to get camber adjustment for the back at least.

But yes do it the jap way, buy the rims, then make the car fit around them, they will look porn.

doesnt having heaps of negative camber on the front just make it steer better not grip better??

google: understeer happens when the front tires have less traction during a cornering situation than the rear tires, thus causing the front end of the vehicle to have less mechanical grip and become unable to follow the trajectory in the corner.

If the tire had zero camber, the inside edge of the contact patch would begin to lift off of the ground, thereby reducing the area of the contact patch. By applying negative camber, this effect is reduced, thereby maximizing the contact patch area.

more neg camber on front = maximizing the contact patch area during a corner

grip better = steer better

heys guys what if i go 18x9front 235 18x9.5 rear 265 but still te37s

but what offset would i need?

my car allready has 9.5 255,40 rear and 9 225,40 front.i dont know wat offset but rear is deepdish

265s on the rear will be pushing it if you don't wanna pull the guards too. I'd personally go 235s all round, or step it up to a 10.5 on the rear for the 265 (what I'm looking at for mine now).

10.5's on the rear of a gt-t? How are you going to make that fit? offset?

just to give yous more info on my car so yous can help me out more

it has bc raceing coilovers it has 17x9 225 front and 17x9.5 255 rear.i dont mind lipping the guards or pulling them out.so is 18x9.5+12 235front 265 rear 0r should i look for 18x9 235 front and 18x9.5 265 rear and larger offset 15 and up.

my rims now.

I run both a 17 x 9 +20 (track) and 18 x 9.5 +15 (street) 235/40 all round, I lipped my front guards and rolled my rears to add an extra 10mm of clearance.

But I run my car a bit lower than most, so I have natural camber both front 2 deg and rear 1.5ish , but plan on correcting it with arms soon.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
