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

    • perhaps i should have mentioned, I plugged the unit in before i handed over to the electronics repair shop to see what damaged had been caused and the unit worked (ac controls, rear demister etc) bar the lights behind the lcd. i would assume that the diode was only to control lighting and didnt harm anything else i got the unit back from the electronics repair shop and all is well (to a point). The lights are back on and ac controls are working. im still paranoid as i beleive the repairer just put in any zener diode he could find and admitted asking chatgpt if its compatible   i do however have another issue... sometimes when i turn the ignition on, the climate control unit now goes through a diagnostics procedure which normally occurs when you disconnect and reconnect but this may be due to the below   to top everything off, and feel free to shoot me as im just about to do it myself anyway, while i was checking the newly repaired board by plugging in the climate control unit bare without the housing, i believe i may have shorted it on the headunit surround. Climate control unit still works but now the keyless entry doesnt work along with the dome light not turning on when you open the door. to add to this tricky situation, when you start the car and remove the key ( i have a turbo timer so car remains on) the keyless entry works. the dome light also works when you switch to the on position. fuses were checked and all ok ive deduced that the short somehow has messed with the smart entry control module as that is what controls the keyless entry and dome light on door opening   you guys wouldnt happen to have any experience with that topic lmao... im only laughing as its all i can do right now my self diagnosed adhd always gets me in a situation as i have no patience and want to get everything done in shortest amount of time as possible often ignoring crucial steps such as disconnecting battery when stuffing around with electronics or even placing a simple rag over the metallic headunit surround when placing a live pcb board on top of it   FML
    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.
