Hi all,

Thinking about purchasing a new set of wheels. These ones will be mostly for show so i was thinking of getting 19s. But if the widths and offsets on the list wont do for an R33 GTST then ill stick with 18s.

What can i fit under the guards:

Only interested in the 2.2.1 or 2.2.2 wheels.

woah thats kinda confusin for a 33 id be stickin with 18s personally.

fronts you'd be going 22 or 35 depding what look and how you want it to sit how much work to make it fit etc.

rears 9.5 +0? or 10.5+22 will need lot of work for 10.5s and lots of camber so without knowing your application im given you advice on what i would do.

for practicality (and not knowing what rim it is or desing) you could easily do an 8.5 or 9 front with a 9.5 rear but will be pretty conservative with the high offset options.

the 18x8 and 18x9s have a pretty weak offset,go 18x9.5 with 22 offset all round. will look pretty good

i run 17x10 rear and 17x9 front both are 17 offset and just fits with stretched tyres (no camber arms or flared guards) :P

yeh but running same size all round for what reason? i mean each to there own but personally unless its a gtr it just seems ghey

yeah fair enough, but the smaller width rims dont have a good offset, the reason why i didnt say the 10.5" is i thaught u guys have strict rules re. the size of wheels you can get? but i totally agree which is why i run a staggered fitment :D

and NYTSKY you might want choose wether you want matt black or full polish, as the full polish doesnt seem to have many offset options and might require more work putting them on

Ive had 19x10.5 on the back before but with a +42 offset.

Not really keen on the same widths all round either.

Id like 19x9 19x10.5 but the offsets listed are very aggressive and IMO couldnt fit with conventional guard work. So maybe new guards are on the cards :)

i would fit a 9.5 +22 front and a 10.5 +22 rear.

235/40 all round.

guard roll and some camber made by lowering the car and should fit well!

I don't see the point in running a 10.5" wide wheel to stick 235s on it, dont forget daves car has nearly 600hp at the treads and will have more soon.

true. but he did say these were for show as well. so if he wants to tuck 10.5's then 235 would be good. im sure he could fit a 255 also. heck even a 275?!

im not 100% sure how much wider a 33 is but i can fit a 9.5 +15 under rolled r32 gtst guards with a 245/40

    • If they can dyno them, get them dyno'd, make sure they're not leaking, and if they look okay on the dyno and are performing relatively well, put them in the car.   If they're leaking oil etc, and you feel so inclined, open them up yourself and see what you can do to fix it. The main thing you're trying to do is replace the parts that perish, like seals. You're not attempting to change the valving. You might even be able to find somewhere that has the Tein parts/rebuild kit if you dig hard.
    • Can you also make sure the invoices on the box (And none exist in the boxes) are below our import duty limits... I jest, there's nothing I need to actually purchase and order in. (Unless you can find me a rear diff carrier, brand new, for stupidly cheap, that is for a Toyota Landcruiser, HZJ105R GXL, 2000 year model...)  
    • Murphy strikes again! Nothing at all would have gone wrong if you had the tool kit in the car! You'd have just found the clamp loose the next time you went to touch it...
    • I have been being VERY quiet about what you're alluding to, as it is something that ticks me off... The number of cars from factory that run coil overs is HUGE! Most of them these days do... The other part that annoys me, is people saying "Well all the incabin adjustable suspension is illegal by blah blah blah"... If that's the case, then why can I buy a car brand new that can do it if, FULL STOP in cabin adjustable suspension is illegal...   Also, I could just chuck some aftermarket shocks in my car, throw the stock springs on, after my blue slip, dump my super low springs back in. Same shock and spring style setup... Hell, they could also be the same colour springs etc.     I'm voting, BlueSlipper didn't want to touch the above car for some reason. Whether it be some sort of bias against the car, the owner, them maybe having previously done dodgy shit and now they're being super careful in case they get slapped in the face by the Gumbyment again... Find a new blueslip place.   And can confirm as you had said, yes there are holy bibles of vehicle heights, and all sorts of other suspension stuff. Heck your run of the mill mechanic, and tyre shop has access to all of that stuff. It's how they do wheel alignments...
    • Funny story Heading to Sydney this morning on the HWY there was some slow traffic, so I gave it the beans and midway through my overtaking "power run" I lost all power It seems that I missed a hose clamp,  and the MAF and filter went WiFi To make this more problematic, the little tool kit that lives in the boot, is sitting in the sun room at Goulburn......LOL Luckily for me I found a bit of steel on the side of the road that could be used like a rusty and bent flat head screw driver to tighten it up enough that it got me into Sydney, it is now all tight like a tiger with the aid of a 8mm socket Note to self: Use my brain and double check stuff, and always keep that little tool kit in the car for when I have a brain fart
