I'm currently trying to figure out what would be best suited out of these two sizes but I don't really have my head around offsets too well.

I want the wheels to be a flush fit with the guards, not tucked in and not hanging out. Can anyone confirm if either of these sizes are correct?

18x10+20 or 18x9.5+22

If you have either of these sizes on your 32 I would be grateful if you could post close up pics of how they fit in the guards.

They sit fine now but I have a 5mm spacer as the fronts rubbed the inside tyre wall without it, they came with the car and I have no idea what their offset is unfortunately.

So if +12 is dead flush, is +20 sitting in or out the guards?

I've got 18x10 +18 with my front and rear guards have been rolled and worked on. And it works perfect

Alright Deano any chance you could post some pics up for me so I know where they will be roughly?

Just super keen to know exactly how they will sit before I lay down nearly 4K.

Hi Matt, I run 18x9.5 +12 and they sit flush. (Tyres are 255/35/R18).

265's will scrub on the front but very minor on lock going slow.

I'll get some pics today

As per your first post

18x9.5 +22 will sit 10mm further in.

18x10 +20 will sit 2mm further in

Deano's 18x10 +18 will sit exactly the same as mine.

18x10 +20 will sit 2mm further in

Hope some of the snaps help your choice

Richard thanks for the thorough response that was just what I was looking for.

Your fitment is pretty much spot on what I'm after so 2mm further in the guards I'll be stoked with, I run 255's on 10 inch wheels now so that's what I'll be using on the new rims.

I am running CE28's 18x9.5 +15 with 265's all round.

Heaps of room! I could drive a truck through that guard gap.

I think a +12 would be better or a 18x10.5

Hi guys I'm new to this forum and new to Skyline ownership. I've recently brought a 32 gtr and am looking to put new wheels on it but have a couple of questions I hope someone on here can help me with:

1. Will 19 x 9.5 +30 fit under the guards and clear the struts, or will there need to be some modifications done?

2. Does any one know how much a standard rim weighs? ( no tyre )

Unfortunately the car is not at my house so I can't measure distances etc and like many haven't quite grasped the offset concept yet.

I assume because the standard (16x8 +30) are the same offset as the rims I'm looking at that, they will just be .75 inch closer to the strut and the guard?

Cheers

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
