hey guys and girls just wondering what rims people have on the r33 and what the biggest size I can go would be without rolling the gaurds or using flares, obviously I wanna run 18 inch rims but am unsure of how wide I can go before I have to roll the gaurds. im after wider wheels on the rear than the front but not to much different that it looks noticibly shit any advice??

I was looking at konig milligram rims 18x8.5 front and 18x9.5 rear or same rim but 18x9.5 front and 18x10 rear would these be fine on the 33 and will they fill the gaurds out nicely?? another thing so you have all details is that the car will be standard ride hight and if I lower it it will only be between 7-12mm or there abouts. also what cmber and caster would be good for this sort of setup.

if these rims wont be a good setup for the r33 what do you guys suggest?? post rim brand and size and offset if you could so I can have a idea of what fits and what to look for cheers peeps.

EDT: also I want deepdish rear but not front but want the same rim design front and rear is this possible?

there is tonnes of info in there. If you roll your guards and run camber arms you can go wider. If not prob stick around 9 +30 for the front and 9.5 +30 or 10+40 for the rears.

You prob wanna research it as good wheels and offset makes or breaks a car

i would be buying these weds if i were u. Might need 235 or 225 for the front but the rest should fit. courier would be a 100 bux

cheers man yours looks nice, yeah didn't really wanna roll gaurds or anything just yet just wanted some 18s I could jst drop straight on coz 17's just don't fill the wheel arch properly lol eah I looked at all the forums on here but it just confused me more coz everyone was running different offsets ect so this will be good for a standard ride hight yeah

will I be able to pull off 9.5 for fronts with 10 rears or is 9 the max for fronts wihout mods

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
