Hi, did a search but not much came up.

What are the widest rims I can run on an R34 GTR? Also, where is the best place to get guards rolled/pumped to accommodate fat tyres?

What is the legality of this and really fat rims in Victoria?

Lastly, do I need to use identical rims on all 4 corners to not confuse ATTESA or can I stagger them?

Thanks.

All depends on if your going 18 or 19 inch. Also what size tyres you want to fit.

I know for a fact you can go quite wide.

With legality, I think if they stick out past the guards then you can get done for it.

On gtr's you must not stagger otherwise problems with Altessa as far as I know.

Biggest you would go without worrying about modifying guards would be 18x10.5 with a maximum offset of +12. if you were to go 19's with the same width and offset you may get some rubbing on the inner guards on full lock depending on tyre size and width.

my wheels came off grant's r33 and are 18x10 +19. sat well on his car, if a teensy bit inside the guards. you can go bigger on r34.

also, atessa only shits brix if rolling diameters are diff f/r. you can stagger, but choose tyre profiles carefully. most cant be arsed with this, which is why they say run samesame all round

pics of same offset on 33r

I had 18x10 +19 AVS Model T5 with 275/35, fit easily however there's slight rubbing on inner guards when going into driveway.

Then I had 18x10 BBS LM with 285/30 RE55s, swapped the coilovers and ran lower, no rubbing at all.

For R34 GTR, you can run what Jack recommends, or hell, buy some of his rims!

Niroj, I never ran tri spokes, bought off a dude who had in his 33 GTR.

my bad

Jack's Sparco's look like awesome value for money, and would look hot on an R34 GTR

Cheers Shane... they are quite cheap since they're brand new...

I have too many sets of wheels to suit GT-R at the moment...6 to be exact....

Wheel whore??? I have a good excuse, I have 3 GT-R's....

Cheers, thanks for the replies.

Thinking of going the Volk TE37 Bronze 19 X 10.5" + 12, with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2's in 285 or 295/35R19 . Smallest offset I could find for that rim on NENGUN. Where else is good to buy TE37s locally? I tried Importmonster's aussie store but they only have the rim in massive offsets.

I just bought a set of 19 x 10.5 +11 for my 34R. Should be fitting them next week but I would not personally go any bigger.

Would love to see pics plz. Let me know if any rubbing - cuz if there is I may have to go down a size/width. Stock suspension?

Thanks.

Try hawthorn tyrepower. They have the best display of rims and can get you whatever you like considering they own a 35r and amuse 370z.

I will be purchasing soonish a set of Te37 SL's 19x10.5 +12 for my 34r.

Te37's with an aggresive offest just look mean on a 34r.

As Nathan said above, I was there yesterday and they have heaps of TE37's to check out.

I was only going to go 285/30/19 but does anyone know if the 295/30/19 will be ok on a 10.5 wheel +11?

my car has only been lowered 30mm but I am a little concerned that the tyre will rub?

Thanks

Personally I would go the 285/30/19 instead of the 295's, they will more likely cause rubbing on full lock and the benefit of going 10mm wider on a street car is negligible as far as performance. Save your pennies or go a better quality tyre in 285 wide.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • 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.
