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 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.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
