Hey Skyline owners!

I have a R33 rb25de( slow but does job ;) ) 1996 series 2 Skyline.

What i need help with is what rims can i put on it, like what looks best as well 19inch or 18inch etc.

Also wanting to lower the car abit so it looks nice at the right height with the rims on it so i dont scrape over jutter bars etc.

On my car the front is like half an inch higher not sure why but it looks weird as.

Any advice or tips would be appreciated.

I have 19's on mine

but go for 18's... the only reason I ended up getting 19's is because every rim I liked i got told couldnt get the right offset for 18's so eventually I got over it and said stuff it and got 19's lol

They look great, but there just to big, car felt about 10 times slower after putting them on because of the higher rolling circumference (going from 16's to this was a big jump)

Ive even ordered new 18's now to replace the 19's.

Depending on what size you want will depend on what offset you can run to avoid scrapping etc. Once you work out what size and width you want then you can work out what offset you will need :)

here are my wheels if you want an idea of what 19's look like, but again I reccomend 18's

ook, how low would a skyline sit on 18's looking nice but not scraping low.

I ordered Lenso D1R's in silver, 18 x 8.5 front and 8 x 9 rear.

i ordered them cause there similar to the rims i already have, I like a nice 5 spoke wheel, but thats just me.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
