General rule,

If you cant get at least 8cm dish at the back it looks shit so dont bother and get something full face/concave eg your 9+12 stuff

On these cars you can easily fit something massive out back so they can pull off dish...

New rims for min on the way have 13cm :D

Personally for me I like concave over deep dish. It really depends on your wallet, if your budget is >$3-4k then definitely concave, otherwise deep dish. You can get both if you're willing to spend $6k or more. I really wish I could have a set of DPE Super Concave wheels like these. *drools*

I personally prefer concave (and hence I have Stance 5ive rims)

I think the photos above are "unfair" as a lowered car with big wide rims & extremely stretched tires, really set off concave rims. But again, that's just a personal view again.

If your not planning on dragging your exhaust all around town (ie not planning on lowering it), I think you should really be looking at examples that match your plans.

From my personal experience (ie mistake), you should pay close attention to the rim offsets; if you want to avoid adding spacers.

One thing which may sway you if your on the fence, is brake dust. I previously had (a small) polished dish, and after a short drive, the rims were covered in brake dust. My new (slightly) concave rims (with a black dish behind the spokes) really "hide" or not collect the brake dust.

I love both dish and deep concave wheels, but my i'm really loving concave atm.

my current wheels atm are Rohana RC10 20x11 +10 Front & Rear

these are also For Sale if anybody is interested.

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
