Hey,

I have an R34 Gtt with Nismo S Tune shocks fitted all round and currently running Lenso D1R wheels all round which are 18x8.5 all round but not sure of the offset. Tyres are 235/40/18.

I've come across a staggered set to of Lmgt4's at a good price but not too sure about the staggered sizing look just yet? Does anyone else run similar set ups?

The fronts are 17x8.5 +30 front tyres are 225/40/17 and the rear is 18x9.5 +38 with 235/40/18 tyres.

How would this setup fit/ run and obviously look?

Any help would be appreciated!

Cheers

Front tyres are stretched onto rims that wide, so are infected with AIDS and will infect you too. If you do plan on using them you should go up to at least 235/45 if not 255/40.

Rears are also stretched onto rims that wide and will give you AIDS from behind. You don't want that. Unless you're into that kind of thing, of course.

And that's just dealing with the tyres. The different diameter thing is not my cup of tea.

Thanks for the feedback guys!

34geeteetee thanks for the offer but if I do change my lensos it'll only be lmgt4's going on! I'm a bit of a Nismo whore.. Then again aren't we all? :P

The rims aren't on a 34 lol. They are on an old Toyota crown I believe? That's why I'm not sure about the offset suiting a GTT? To be honest I thought they would be stretched considering the rears are a whole inch wider then my current rims fitted with the same 235 width tyres.

I was thinking 235/45/17 tyres for the front. What about the rear? 255/40/18? Then would the rear guards need rolling?

Thanks guys

Hahaha Hadouken!

I'd be running 265's as well.. But whether they will scrub without rolling guards I don't know.. I was hesitant on the +38 offset but it seems Nismo recommend 18x9.5 +38 on the back with 255/35/18 tyres on the r33.. See below. But I can't find anything for a 34!!!

The offsets will fit especially if you stretch the tyres. I have the same (+33 on the front) on my R34 but mine are both 18's not 17's at front and 18's at rear.

Also my wheels are LMGT2's... so far as 'same' they aren't really. But the offsets are. I also have 275's on the back with no rolling nor flaring. I'd wager they can be made to fit even if they're slightly too big.

Yeah thanks Gtsboy, that's what I thought..

Of course kinkstaah, anything can be made to fit! :P I love the look of LMGT2's on 34's. Do you have a pic?

I also found this on the forum. Thanks to Shoujiki! Seems the offset is perfect.. Just going to need to get some new Michelin Pilot Sport 3's fitted!! :)

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
