R33 Gts Offset Decision18X9.5+12

[DarkRyda]

Hey guys i have an R33 and i ordered a set of rims 18x9.5+22 and they sent me 18x9.5+12 i have the option to swap them over to the offset i ordered or keep these ones... what would you guys do? iv been going back and forth and i don't know what to do.

The plan was to run 18x9.5+22 with 235/40/18 and roll the guards. I do not want the flare my guards anyone running this offset can help me out? The look i want is for the rims to stick out just enough to have a bit of stance.

my car sits approx approximately 10cm off the ground (can just fit a coke can under the side skirts) i do not have camber arms but i do have aftermarket shocks and springs non adjustable.

The rims where test fitted on the front passenger side with bone stock guards.

Excuse the messy garage in the process of cleaning it all up hahah

Would fit with abit of camber, not hard to tuck that

[Manuel Kasko]

Would love to see what this looks like once its done

Go for it!

LOL you guys are not helping one bit wanted someone to say swap them seems like everyone is for phat stance.

If I do decide to keep them can someone tell me what I'll need to do to my guards ? Roll / pull? Will I need camber arms ? Do I need to lower my car further ? Any info would help thanks guys.

Even pics of ppl with the same offset will do justice to help me make a decision

Keep it legal and keep it in the guards, no point looking all "Stanced" if your going to get defected everytime you cruise...

I want to go 9.5 all round too as it looks so much better and is practical but until i can afford to roll guards etc ill just keep the staggered 8.5 and 9.5 arrangement...

i know bugger all about offsets, but cops seem to know a thing or two about it

[DarkRyda]

Rolling my guards isn't an issue and I believe +22 also sticks out the guards which is what I'm after more concerned about if I need camber arms / flare guards.

I would put on front and rear camber arms anyway, you will want the adjustability after either set of wheels is fitted.

Thanks for the help Lachlan and everyone else... Any pics guys?

Hamish should be here shortly lol

He will probably post pics, and definitely recommend the +12

[TaKz]

keep them, slam it, be awesome

[DarkRyda]

I have decided to keep them =) But... does anyone have pictures of this offset on there GTST?

@ HEKT1K hahah i have already spoken to Hamish and i got pics of his it looks great, but id like to see few other r33 with same offset just to have a better idea of how they sit.

12

[DarkRyda]

I know your input in this Hamish but thanks for clearing that up hahha, im keeping the +12 but does anyone have anymore pics of them on a GTST.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

either way... it's only 10mm difference, so realistically they will sit about the same, you will just have a slightly better concave

[DarkRyda]

That's true =) Thank you guys for all the replies big help! any pics still appreciated =P
