Rim's Will They Fit?

[SpeedWhore]

Hi guys im considering a new pair of rims. I need to know if these will fit my r33 GTST series 1. Ive got Bilstein suspension fully adjustable coil overs. Im a bit of a noob and dont understand all the concepts of offset and so on. So here are the specs atm. I have 17" Advan rims lowered that they barely clear. I understand i will need to raid it a little. SO here are the specs of the new rims

Volk Te37 Reps 9.5" +20

18" x 9.5"

+ 20 Offset all round

5x114.3

SPORTS BRONZE

hub bore 73

hubcentric spacers to make that 66?

Tyres are.

245/40R18

275/40R18

So looking at this i do want my rear to hang out a little i love the look and its really tough. Any help would be great.

rims will fit with a roll and removing the front guard liners... will need to run 235's all round

275's will only fit if you do a massive flare or run the car like a landcruiser

Same profile but different tyre widths?

Might want to check that out, would expect it to be 275/35 or maybe even 275/30

What brand reps are they? Just get the Varrstoen reps, then you don't have to mess with hubcentric rings (not spacers). Also that's a lot of meat to fit under the fenders... you'll probably need to use thinner tyres. I run a 235 on my 9.5" wheel.

+25 is probably ideal offset.

+30 I had to grind away my upper control arms a tad to get full lock, but all good

+20 will get your tyres too close to the guards, scrub issues I think, even with rolling

if you're buying new, wheel supplier should give you hubcentric rings to suit,otherwise they'll already be knocked in

With the plastic guard liners, only cut away a small area that's required as opposed to removing the whole thing.

Keep that water away as much as possible, looms will get soaked and she might start rusting in areas you can't see.
