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.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
