Help With Offset For R33 Gtr

[Shazz]

hi guys,

I have been sorting through old topics to see if anyone has fitted 18x8.5 +30 offset wheels to an R33 GTR, however i have had no luck. Has anyone done this? does anyone know if it will fit/suit, or will it not fill up the guards and look like ass?

cheers for the help

Dont do it - will look like ass

Start with 9.5 +12 up to 10.5 + 15

+1 will look as gay as aids. The stock wheels are 9" +30 so just imagine more sunkenness.

thanks guys, i wasn't sure if it would sit further in or out. i have r34 gtr wheels on at the momment and i like them, but they dont fill the guards properly

[mystery_kid]

that's because they are the same width and offset as the stock r33 gtr wheels

you need to go wider than 9" or less offset, preferably both as mentioned above :]

Buy my wheels.

Proper size and offset for 33 GTR, look it up.

i thought that was going to be the cases so i gave the wheels a miss

You can even go +12 on some 10.5's

CE28n i have now look good, however they could do with being +12 and fill the guard just a tad more.

10.5 +15ish with a 265 or 275 is what you need. Then post pics

How is steering on R33 GTR With 10.5 ? is it really heavy bcoz of the width? and does it hit on anything on full lock?

[Hadouken]

Doesn't hit on full lock. Doesn't feel heavy. It actually feels to me just like having stockies on.

Get some castor and camber going - drives like a dream.

You will find the guard liner will get some rubbing depending on suspension. Mine is not rock hard kidney bashing stuff, so I get slight rubbing with 285s.

Not sure about 265s, I've not really drive the car hard enough with them on yet.

When i say rubbing, it's very very minimal. So much that you cannot hear it whilst driving and only 1-2 spots of inner guard will have marks

i got 18 * 10 + 20 on mine and looks good. sits just inside the guard with 275's on, no scraping

Stock camber/caster might be ok, but wind on some castor and then see how it goes.

whilst mine's a 32, it runs heaps of castor and the inner guard cops a bashing.
