if you want to spend abit of money then get some quality jap rims for sure,

if you have a limited budget then get a set of rotas, they look quite good and are very affordable.

but make sure you get rims that have a nice offset with +20 being the absoulute maximum, anything around +12,+15 is desireable

If you budget is 2k, I would look at the Work Wheels. I custom ordered a set of Matt Black XT7's for our Midnight Purple R33 GTSt Project Car.

I have the R34 GTR wheels on now and love that look (and you don't need any spacers)

hes asking about a gtr, not a gtst. 34 gtr wheels are +30 so would definitely need spacers to get good fitment

Understand that, however it depends on your definition of "good fitment".

R34 is 18 x 9 +30 and R33 is 17 x 9 +30, so depending on the intended use of the car, a set with a "less aggressive" offset might still fit his needs?

stock wheels sit waaaay too far in the guards imo, plus if hes running coilovers, he might have issues clearing struts. i know i do with my standard wheels, need to use 5mm slip ons

plus gtr wheels are overpriced imo considering their width and offset. my advice if youre on a budget would be to go to http://www.option1ga...u/NewWheels.htm and buy some 18x10 +15 rotas for $1090

thats what i meant, the stock wheels sit way to far in for my liking, i wanted to use spacers to bring the wheels flush with the guard,

i think ill just go with a set of rota's. either 18 or 19's

hey guys this what i have decided to go with?

do you think silver as pictured or gunmetal with polished lip?

can anyone photoshop the centers gunmetal

Look like techs in 18x9.5 + 20

Had a set on my gtr before i put the gtc's on. Good bang for buck.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
