4 x Volk Racing rims with all the plates and center caps, 17 x 9 with 4 x Dunlop Formula R DO1J 265/40R 17 and 2 x Kumho V70A 235/40R 17.

Still one or two track days left in the tyres, they have been stored indoors and had some grip put on them prior to my last outing, only used on the car at track days.

The offset is god knows, they fit under my GTS-T with rolled guards and some camber, you need at least -2 deg on the back and front to get inside the guards of a R33 GTS-T.

Will swap for MINT 17 x 8 Nissan wheels i.e 350Z or simular, maybe even R32 GTR rims (Im trying to keep it looking standardish)

Or $650

Pick up and/or inspect in Sydney.

God said "its about 100mm from the face that bolts to the disc hat to the outside lip", he would have been more helpful but said I've been a "bad boy" and that's all the info he will give me.

They are 2 piece rims.

I got the wheels from Peter at ADVAN performance a couple of years ago, they were on his GRACER car at Superlap 2009.

Hope that helps.

rim width is 253, distance from hub face to inside lip is 148.

So, 1/2 rim width of 126.5 - 148 = +21.5offset

I used Google for the calcs, they may not be right, if you like them try them on.

    • 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
