what style are you into (i.e. JDM, sexspec?) GTR or GTST R33? I would say you can probs fit anything up to about 20 inch wheels on a stock r33, but there are many factors such as do you want an aggressive fitment/flush, and many more. Need more info dude

really depends on the look you want to achieve and if yo uwant staggered or same sizes all round. heaps of threads about this also.

personally i think that 18s suit r33s the best as i like to think one size up from factory is enough.

if you have a gtst and want the conservative look you could go for around 18x8 +32 front and 18x9 +38 rears or there abouts and this will be quite in the guard though which isn't my style.

if you want something more aggressive and to sit flush which is probably the go then go with something in the 18x9 +30-20 region as this will sit flush or poke out a tad if you go some where close to +20 offset.

if you want bad ass balla stylez then i'd suggest anything around 18x9-18x10 with offsets ranging from +20 - the minuses...although you have to be prepared for some major guard work as those mofos will stick out and rub stuff.

in saying this its really all about the offset.

my personal preference would be 18x9 +20 up front and 18x9-9.5 +15-5 or there abouts as it would provide good poke out of the guards but not overly stupid poke nor will the size be too wide and also tire sizes for 18x9-9.5 inch wide rims are usually cheaper (215-225-235/40r18).

but thats just me.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
