If you go 10.5 wide you will need to go 285 or 295 wide tire. Whatever you do dont go 10.5 wide and put a 265 or 275 stretched tire on there !  Stretched tires on a gtr is on par with neons!

Hey i checked it out, i guess the next question is (because i want to run the emotion D9R's as well, would anyone reccomend staggered? Or would 10.5 be ok on the front as well? 

Id probably run 285 tyres but by the looks of the thread above id still need to heat the guards too.. so many choices 

Im running 18x10.5 +15 lmgt4's with 295/30/18 front and rear, slight rubbing on full lock. Previous owner had 19x10.5 te37 with 275 and it rubbs on inner fender plastic. I think 275 is the biggest tyre you can run on 19s, if you want 285 or more then stick to 18s.

I have D9R's in 19 x 10.5 + 15 on my GTR.

I run Hankook 275 x 30 x 19 and there is only a tiny bit of stretch .. certainly not hella stretched brosef stance though.

Thats the exact offset and size i was going to go for, any scrub on full lock?

No scrub on full lock in any direction, but i used a heat gun on the inner arch liners and pushed them back. I'm running about an inch lower than standard Vspec suspension on Tein Super Streets

Thread revival & update.

So i moved on from the Work D9R and have gone with Work Meister S1 3p in 19 x10.5 +12.

Ended up going with a Kuhmo ECSTA PS91 tyre - 285 30 19. According to "will they fit" website, this makes the rolling diameter/circ exactly the same as the stock 245 40 18 wheels on an R34.

So, how's the fit?

Well, it's certainly the widest max tyre you can go without installing Camber arms etc. Tyres poke ever so slightly, and front right does rub on full lock, but i'll fix that by removing one of the bolts that hold the BOV adaptor. That seems to be my issue.

Raised the front coilovers by 10mm for more clearance as my Vspec lip has seen better days. Coilovers are Tein Flex, and set 5 odd clicks from full soft. Very compliant on the road.

Rears are fine, but cutting it close. Rolled rear guards or more camber could help, but i wasn't getting any rub (going over speed humps/ acceleration squat/ turn in/ cornering) all seemed fine.

285 30 19 are better than a 275 35 19, but very little room to play.

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
