One for the list, 4 door 18x9.5 +26, 245/40 all round Fronts I had to roll and pull the guards, rear I have just rolled the lip a little. Camber is 1.5 front and 1 rear Nismo Stune suspension

Wheels: Work VS-XX F: 18x8.5 +28 r-disc  235/40/18 R: 18x9.5 +32 a-disc 255/40/18 Regarding the fronts: I'm not sure if I needed to get r-disc since there's about 1/2inch 2/3inch gap

Might be a bit tight on the front. I couldn't fit 9.5 +38 on the front it was too inset and was hitting the suspension strut. I went for ; 8.5 +30 on the front 245/40 9.5 +38 on the rear 265/35

I want 18x9.5 inch all round, rears im fine with +38 but for the fronts its hard to find out exactly what offset i would need.

I would prefer no gaurd roll back can do if scraping.

Would +35 front be ok?

im running 18x9.5 + 22 235/40 on the fronts lowered with coilovers and it clears everything fine even on full lock, except for going up inclines(ramps and driveways) with the wheels turned then itl scuff the guard lip (mind you the car could be raised a good 10-15 odd mm to fix that because it has dropped below limit or i could just roll my guards)

it pokes a little bit and given the stretch on the tyre its really a preference on the "stanced" look it gives (it was the biggest tyre i could run under there) i never choose the "thug life"

i wouldnt run anything higher then +22 on a 9.5 wheel on the front to be safe maybe a +24mm at most but that would be pushing it

id stick with a 8.5" wheel on the front and run with the lowest offset so a +30 or some thing that should give a somewhat neat flush to lip look (maybe spacers if your into them)

Looking at getting a set of these...

Can someone tell me if they will be too agressive for the front.

Need some help im thinking of getting Rota Grid R's....

Car suspension = stock, might want to lower alittle but no guard work if possible...

1. From what I've read for 18" 9.5 with an offset of 35 this will fit the rears almost perfect flush right?

2. I can't get 8.5's with the specific Rota's i want so if i was to get 9.5 what offset would sit flush for the front?

Thanks

9.5 with + 30 would stick out a bit. Trying to fit a 9.5 on the front is hard any chance to run a 9? (i would personaly recomend a 9" on the front) 9.5 is to much because you have to run a stretched tyre to be "legal"

ok so i just did a quick calculation for you and the size for the front would also be 9.5 + 35 BUT the problem is im not sure if it will clear your springs. 9.5 on +30 will stick out about 6mm from the guard and it means youl have to probably have to runn a 235 tyre

I had 9.5 +38 test fitted on the front without a tyre and it was touching the suspension on full lock.

8.5 +30 fits perfect, no guard rub no guard work, normal tyre.

9.5 +30 will probably be quite close to the suspension especially on full lock but it may just fit. However it will poke out and may need guard work not to rub.

Maybe rota does custom orders?

Thanks soo much guys really appreciate your help... I'm thinking I might do this...

Rears: 18x9.5 +35 Rota Grid R (more concave look)
http://www.rotawheels.com.au/wheels/rota-grid-r

Fronts: 18x8.5 +30 Rota Grid (more flat look)
http://www.rotawheels.com.au/wheels/rota-grid

This way I will clear the suspension...

Hopefully they can do customs it would look better with concave look at the front too

Yeah im not to sure about the mixed matched rims, but i guess you dont really have a choice. Have you thought about saving a little extra to buy a better quailty wheel? My rota wheel cracked after 10k km under normal road use..now i have a set of rotas and a cracked wheel sitting around doing nothing haha

Definitely a guard roll on the front, back might be okay(no roll) but will probably poke out a lot.

Also those tyres will be stretched on the front.

      Out of curiosity, how do you cover up the inspection hole? Surely it doesn't sit open like that, right? With grime and dirt coming in and oil going out?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything
