I think the rims atm from a quick measure with them still on car so might a bit off are 235/45/17 with a 17x9 +38

Well if that’s the case then it’s only a 2mm difference... to be sure you should have a look at the inside of the wheel spokes.. it will be engraved somewhere.

if you have the measurement correct then 2mm should be fine (as long as you’re not 1-2mm off the suspension lol) just make sure you also check the fronts at full lock both directions.

I just won some Work Meisters,  3 piece SP1.   Plan on seeing if they work with my GTT.   Should be interesting, lol.   Any idea what tires a guy should run? 

Work Meisters S1
5x114.3

18x10+22
18x11+22

Minimum 3 degree camber and ultra stretched tyres ? 235s and 245s

Thanks to everyone's input here.  Been a lot of help reading through this.  I have a bit of a different situation.  I have a GTT with GTR fenders added on.  I ordered 18-9.5 +12 LM GT4s but they don't fit as I think some of the original GTT fender is in the way.  The shop is now telling me to order 18-9.5 +22 up front and 18-10 +22 for the back.  Any thoughts on this?  I don't want to end up with a second set of wheels that don't fit.  Car came with 18-10.5 +22 TE's but they were rubbing a bit so I was looking to change them out.

Thanks

(Just for future reference for other people wanting fitment suggestions)

I've got Work Meister S1 3P's on my 34 GTT.

18x9 +18p front on a 225/40R18
18x10 + 18p rear on a 255/35R18

Fitment is near perfect. Minimal camber in the rear too. Fronts I could probably have gone another half inch wider and cleared perfectly fine. Car is not sacked on its ass though as I hate guard rub. Only get a tiny bit as is if I go over a solid bump with a few people in the car. I have slightly pulled my fenders however.

Strange that they don’t fit. What tyres you running? I have 18x9.5 +20 on my fronts with 235 rubber and they clear easily

maybe you are running too much tyre on the front? 

Otherwise you could get a wheel alignment and possibly adjust camber half a degree

The TE's have 265-40 on them.  I'm not sure what tire was put on the LMGT's when it was test fitted.  I'm having a shop handle all this for me as the car is down for a full rebuild.

A 265 wide tyre should only be running 35 sidewall not 40. This should solve the issue

I’ve decided I rather run more tire and less offset. I’d like ro run 235/40 up front and 255-265/35 rear. Trying to decide if I wanna try to make 18x9.5 +22 square fit or go the safe route and do 18x8.5 +30 front and 18x9.5 +35 rear.

Edit: unfortunately the wheels I have picked out dont have a 18x9 option or I would opt for that for the front

 

Any advice? I’d like to avoid poke if I could. I know 235/40 on 9.5 will stretcn a bit but it’s not too over the top. My car also has GTR brembo’s so I gotta make sure everything clears lol

both options will fit, the square set will look better and more chance of clearing the front brakes depending on the disk type.

Hi Im looking at getting some work GT5 wheels in 18 x 9 +30 front and 18 x 10 +38 rear.  Car is fairly low on BC coilovers and all guards are rolled. Will the 18 x 10 + 38 clear the coilover fine??  Will it sit fairly flush or better off going a bit more aggressive offset. Don't really want to be cambering the wheels or having crazy poke. Just after a nice clean look. 

Should be more than fine.

There's a lot of space in the rear of a 34 on the inside, I don't know too much about the BC's vs other coilovers back there, I have 18x9 +30 all round and have something like 40mm clearance on the inside. It'll poke a litttle on the rear, but 10+38 is a very common size for the rear of skylines in general in regards to that.

    • 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 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
