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.

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
