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.

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
