Hi fellas,

I'm currently shopping around for new a set of 18" wheels for my '96 R33 S2 GTS25T. I've been leaning towards a set of Lenso D1Rs. I currently have +30mm front guards, my rear arches have been rolled professionally and they also appear to have been slightly pulled (by 5-10mm or so) in comparison to standard S2s. I'm currently running Tein SS adjustable coilovers and have a set of adjustable rear camber arms stored in the shed on standby.

While hunting around on google images for 33 GTS25Ts rolling on D1R's, one particular set of pics stood out from the rest. The owner of the car in the pics below (from NZ) claims he's running 18x9.0 with -4 offset all round.

Original thread that pics are from can be found here: http://www.skylineowners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=193124

I thought I'd run this past you guys first before making any decisions and parting with any cash...

Considering my 33 is currently a daily driver, do you think -4 offset would be ok? or would I be better off going for more conservative/positive offsets to avoid headaches?

Any thoughts/suggestions/advice etc would be highly valued & appreciated.

Cheers!

Another consideration, do you plan to lower your car to that height? Low offsets look good on low cars, but practicality goes out the window. Running those offsets on a car which rides at a daily-friendly height isn't gonna look that good.

    • How much have you lowered?  I had 350Z springs in the rear and was able to pull the camber into factory spec with the factory arms on the rear, obviously the front ran negative camber as it isn't adjustable, but rotating the wheels regularly evened out the wear.
    • Either the installer needs to come back, you need an auto electrician, or you need to learn automotive electricals yourself.   First step Id look at is where that big thing came out of, is there still things unplugged at that location? Maybe they just forgot to put a relay in or something?
    • Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.
    • I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want. 
    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.
