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.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
