please clarify

i have been told from numerouse mag wheel dealers that 9.5 on the stagea is to wide and will creat issues

i am looking at dropping my m35 on some BC BR coilovers and running big break kits witch mean ill be running 19 inch mags

so what size width mags can i get with 19s? that i can use on the stagea that wont rub 8.5s or 9s

if i get a spacer does that mean i can go wider ?

with offset does a - or a + offset mean a bigger dish etc

or do u guys recomend 18s for the stagea

Most Aussie tyre shops only sell +40 as that's all they can get. Speedy, ROH and such all do crap offsets.

They're starting to get better as more Falcoon & Crummydore owners buy staggered sets for their bombs, and they're getting a bit more savvy to offset & caliper clearance too.

I tried some 19*9.5 +38 on mine with 245/35/19 tyres and they fit perfectly and could even have gone wider on the rear i.e. lower offset.

Do you have any pics? Was there any suspension work done to it? Any rubbing on full lock?

I've mentioned on another thread that I've found some 19x8x5+35 or 19x9.5+40 from Avant Garde (Model M368) that would suit the M35 really nicely.

^ Agree.

I think that with the Nismo suspension I could fit 19x9.5 with a +35 offset and have 3mm clearance. Not enough for my liking.

Having said that, I just picked up a set of Buddy Club P1 Racing 2's which are 19x9 with a +45. Not ideal so will have to probably run 10mm spacers although I don't know how they will sit with the Autech suspension.

If all else fails, they came with 30mm spacers :P

No pics sorry I didn't end up buying them. They were Buddy Club P1's or something. I can't remember how much clearance but it wasn't much and they never scraped anywhere when I drove on them. I have factory bilstein suspension and my car is quite low which would have helped as well. Still, I would have bought them if they were in better condition as I didn't think the clearance was an issue but maybe the bilstein stuff is different to the Nismo or other factory suspension, I don't know.

Now that I have nisom suspension im looking at wheels. what would these offsets be like

Fronts - 19x8.5 +25

Rears - 19x9.5 +35?? Kinda new to the size and offset thing.

Will you be running in RWD only? Staggered sizes won't work with AWD.

I reckon the 19x8.5 + 25 would be better for piece of mind regarding possible clearance issues.

The 19x9.5's were a +40 with a 5mm spacer. They fit and cleared the suspension, but not by much.

No spacers needed with this size?

Running 18x9+20 with 235/40/18

Car stits 345mm from centre of wheel to top of wheel arch ,

On bc coilovers

No rubbing at all , no guard rolling needed

Just thought I would share for anyone in the near future

What's your camber settings?

    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
