Hi fellas,

I recently came across an opportunity to buy off a mate a set of black Volk TE37's in 19x9.5+12 all round and plan to run on 275/30/19 tires.

I have heard contrasting views, some saying this offset looks best whereas some suggest 19x10.5+22 is the better, but various people seem to run the 19x9.5+12 more frequent. Can someone please share with me their experiences on a R33 GTR and best tire profile as noticed chunkier profiles look best on a R33 GTR.

It looks good on his R34 GTR, but not sure it will look good on my fatter R33? Just don't want to buy them and regret it!! Please help!! They seem to look ok on 350Z's??

Pictures would be great!!

Thanks.

SM

R33/34 GTR.

19x10.5 +15 or + 12.

Other sizes will work. But size above in 18/19 is best IMO.

Will fill guards the most.

X9.5 +10-20 works as well but will sit in the guards. Noticeably.

best offset would be +12 or +15 but then again that all depends on the size available to you.

i wouldnt go for the 9.5 even tho they do have good offset. id hold out out for atleast 10" wide with the same offset. would look that little bit more aggressive

Thanks mate for the advice. If I were to go for the +9.5, would it still look ok?

Cheers

you could always just put some spacers behind them to push them out that bit more if you are realy worried about it.

if you used say a 12mm spacer that would basically make them 10" wide.

ive only ever had 10.5" wide on my gtr with the 3 sets of rims ive owned so i cant give personal advice on how it would look

So you think 19x9.5+12 with custom 12mm spacer plates would look tough as 19.10.5+12? surely with spacers, it would look just as tough as x10.5 in terms of width, right mate?

Thanks all.

19 x 9.5 +12 will just give you more lip and a tad more concave on the spokes, which will give a more aggressive look on you wheels.

19 x 10.5 +22 will give you better rear traction due to it being a inch wider of tyre but a less aggressive offset.

R33 GTR's have wide rear guards, preferably you run 19 x 10.5 +12 as the stock R33 GTR wheels are 17 x 9 +30 and the look tiny.

But if you got 19 x 10.5 +22, it should still look ok but won't fill out the guards as good as 19 x 10.5 +12.

19 x 10.5 +12 fills out the guards nicely.

Don't bother running spacers and get the correct offset to fill out the guards.

Is it possible to fit 19x11 +5 with 275/30/19 tires all around on a R33GTR with coil overs and standard brembo brakes, the wheels in mind are work Miester S1-3 with r type disk.

What offset is the above GTR running the car in question is the only GTR with miesters on it

    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi
