How To Tell The Differrence Between R32 Gtr And Gtst Wheels?

[IM-32-FK]

Ok i know the GTR wheels are 8 inch wide wheras the GTST is 6.5 inch wide and gtr is forged, but is there any way you can tell by just looking at them that they are GTR wheels? I bought wheels last year and just recently read that gtr wheels have a 'forged' marking inside but i cant find it anywhere! the rim says 690kg and ive got 225/50 tyres on them.

Take the rim off and look on the back usually on one of the spokes. It will tell you all you need to know.

like this one it writes forged around the center cap?

if mine are not gtr but gtst rims, then why do they have holes drilled into them around the center caps?

Just take the wheel off and look on the back.

i cant right now, i will do it tomorrow, but like that link i posted, shouldnt it have markings around the center caps if they are gtr, and none if they are gtst? also exactly where on the back?

also why do mine have holes drilled into them

On the back it will have the dimensions. GTR wheels are wider than GTST wheels

Cut it in half then get someone else to cut a gtr wheel in half then compare.

Alright guys i took the wheel off and had a look behind the spokes. Here are the markings:

See how easy that was

[kingtube69]

GTR wheels. GTST are 6 or 6.5 wide

Ok thanks but it still doesnt answer the question as to why there are no engarved markings around the center caps like the one in this picture: http://www.cruzinforacure.com/Skyline/IMG_5078_800x533.jpg

I think you should cut them in half to confirm; Ben was definitely onto something.

Because they are copies, same reason they have the hole drilled in them

i think they are the n1 spec gtr wheels, very rare

[niZmO_Man]

R32 GT-R = 16x8 +30

R32 GTS-t = 16x6.5 +40

[UWISSH!]

N1 rims had holes drilled in them to make them lighter

[PranK]

R32 GT-R = 16x8 +30

R32 GTS-t = 16x6.5 +40

If I may add. It's been 26 years since the first gtrs rolled off the line, any number of things could have happened to them. Were there any other markings behind the spokes? They could well be non genuine.
