Hey all,

I'm looking at getting new wheels with the above specs, just wanted to know if anyone has photos of this or a similar setup.

Also how much guard work is needed for these to fit? Will most probably be using 235/40/18 tyres

Cheers

I've got 18x9.5 +35 on the rears and that sits flush. That is with 265 wide tires though. To run a +12 offset and those stretched tires, I think you might struggle. I think you'll need to roll guards and even then it will be a squeeze.

Thanks for the reply guys, very helpful there Sean :nyaanyaa:

I'm currently running 18x9+12 fronts and 18x10+22 rear, very minor scrub comes from the rear during a sharp turn, only coz my guards aren't rolled, though I will definitely be getting the guards rolled if I get the new set of wheels.

if anyone has some photos, that would helpful :)

i run 18x9.5 +8 on the rear of my 33 gtst track car.

now the catch.... i have a LOT of gaurd rolling lol.

Not running much camber though.

Using 265/40 tires and hasnt scrapped once that i know of.

i would probably struggle to hear the scrape but i have been inspecting the tyres often for the tell tale cuts along the ouside edge/corner and so far havnt found a single mark on the tyres.

there is no way 34gtt gaurds are gunna be less forgiving than 33gtst. they will most probably be the same or slightly wider yes??

check the r34 thread in photoprahy section of my car

18x9 +15 18x9.5 +12

Only found the VS KF on your car, unless those are the ones you're talking about? though it's 9.5+17. What tyres were you running with those?

    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
