Hey guys, sorry if this have been covered for so many time. i just wanna know what width and offset i should get if i want the wheels to slightly stick out of my guards, like the 350z in the photo. Cheers!

PS. I am thinking of getting 18X9.5 all around with 263/35 tyres and i don't want to use spacers to fit the wheels on my car.

18x9.5+20 will stick out nicely

They're not 265's though surely!

You are going to struggle to put a 265/35R18 on the front of a RWD GTS-T I would have thought :wacko:

18x9.5's all around will go no dramas but I am an advocate of 225/40R18 all round or 225/40 255/35 staggered set-up.

I have 18x9.5 +22's with 265/35's all round on my r33 gtst.

Need a guard roll and modify the splash guards up front.

Actually got 7mm spacers on the back aswell, just clear.

Shit pic but yeah:

So do you mean that i need 7mm spacers on the back to clear the breaks? Plus, will your ride height be legal in SA? Cheers!

Sorry for asking so many questions! :(

Don't need spacers, just put them on because i had the space to push them out a bit further. In other words i could have gone +15 offset on the rear.

Unless the wheels have ALOT of dish, they should clear the brakes no dramas in a +22 offset.

My ride height is around 100mm give or take at the exhaust under the car

whats the camber set up. surely around the -3 for that. My 9 +22 with -.2 camber is about 5mm out the guards. however when camber was at -1.5 i was able to slide a 8mm to make it almost sit the same

Are those TE37's?

The red spoke makes me think so :worship:

    • The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change
    • I was at Tunehouse in Marrickville (great team over there really know their VR's) , and I spotted this Very clean R35.  
    • Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down. 
    • The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
