Always heard bad things about spacers... for the life of your car, and obviously legality.

Please advise? :)

I'd run them on my low powered daily toyboata but not mah turbocharged beast :thumbsup:

I still haven't got my wheels (won't be for a while now!) but this is some great info. I'm leaning toward the TE37's too, exxy, but i think there one of the perfect wheels for the R34's. That or Lenso D1R's, much cheaper (maybe for a reason?) but look pretty sweet still.

I have ordered some Varrstoen 2.2.1 model rims for my 34GTT.. just waiting for them to come in.

I went with 18x9.5 +22 Front and 18x10.5 +22 Rear.

As my bodykit is quite wide, im thinking these 'should' fill the guards nicely. Anyone think I would need any guard rolling to make these fit in? Here is a couple pics.

I'm also struggling with this, im looking at some wheels (19x9 +38 and 19x9.5 +45) and not sure if this will fit my car (r34 gt-t). Any advice? its stock height atm but have coilovers going in soon. Wont have them set too low though so these wheels should be ok? Don't wanna roll my guards or anything like that. :)

I am running +38 rear lowered 2 inches and it is quite conservative. +45 will sit in quite a bit.

Hi-jacking of thread for my own personal gain...

Getting 18 x 9 +18s all round. Rolling required?

Cheers.

Pretty sure you will need rolling for this, particularly if you are lowered

18x9.75 +20 should fit rears fine with just a roll and stretched tyres. Fronts may stick out quite a bit with that width and offset though unless you want to run massive camber

I'm running 18x9+15 front and it already looks mexican spec lol

Just related to this, where can I get front guards (wheel arches) for my GTT? The car didnt come with it cos of the aftermarket front bumper. But I really want it to give it a cleaner look.

    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
    • Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3 
    • It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
