18" wheels and anywhere between 225 and 245

18x8" +20 on a 235 tyre

18x9" +30 on a 245 tyre all around is what i run on the front and thats flush to guard no rub no scrub no issues (my car sits slightly higher then most due to my driveway).. so you should have little trouble going that all around (check my photos on previous page)

Hi all,

About to get some wheels tomorrow in the size 9,5j et+26 all around for my R34 GTT with nismo S-tune suspension.

Thread has been great help.

Looking to run 245/35/18 front and 255/35/18 rear. You think I can run this without rolling the fenders or any other guard work?

If not...what size tyre should I run

Cheers from Holland :action-smiley-069:

Hey mate. A 9.5 +26 will have a tiny bit of poke from the guards you may want to run a smaller tyre for clearance issues but you could probably get away with a 245.. my old 18x9.5 +22 had guard rub when going up inclines and full lock that was with lowered coilovers and a 235 tyre.. also worth mentioning make sure you wheels will clear your suspension arms on the front.. mine had a tiny gap between wheel and arm

Cheers good luck

Ps i had unmodified guards.. i would recommend rolling them if your car is lowered with that size wheel and offset

18x9+25 would sit a little inside on the rears if anything. Perfect flush fit in my opinion is 18x9+30, even on that it'll sit in a little on the rears but nothing substantial

Edit: it would stick a little out than in, myyy bad

hey guys, i was thinking of going 18x9 +25 all round, was wondering if it would poke outside the guards considering the front on your ones look pretty flush

To revive this thread, this is my R34 gtt with LMGT4's in 18x9+22 front and back.

Wrapped in 235/40/18 re003's all around.

No camber to them, guards are rolled at the front but probably didn't even need to, there's no scrub at all.

Perfect flush fitment front and back.

More clear photos for you mate, yeah i noticed a huge improvment when i swapped..any photos of your new wheels?

Hey Artic, what front bar/kit is that? Lip looks great on it! Wheels look great also, glad to see a reference as i'll be running a similar 18x 9 or 8.5 + 30 all round when i finally get mine.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
