If you got a GTR then why the heck are you going with a staggered offset ? It will ruin your AWD system.

Secondly, the offset you mention is crap as as it will scrap and would look wrong on a GTR, go with +9.5 or +10 + 12 or +15. With tires at least go 265 like many have suggested or even go 275. I have 19+9.5+12 and run 275 tires. Looks so much better.

hahah............. I had a different brand tyre on the front from the rear and the ATESSA was complaining. They were made as the same size tyre 265/35/18 but that small difference in diameter had torque always going to the front. So good luck trying to get your fronts and rears to within 3% of the same diameter.

I'd do same wheel and tyre all round unquestionably. And it'd be 18 x 10.5 +15 with a 265/35 tyre on 'em. Done. Perfect.

i just found out that in 18x10.5 they only come with a +23 offset and atm im using 25mm spacers

im just wondering if they should clear the front break caliper??

the guy i spoke to said he dosnt recommend them on the front but has any1 done this yet

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
