Car would have to be pretty high ride height. Never seen anyone run them, but I think you might be pushing it. On a stock R33 GTR body the normal fitment for drag radials or slicks is 26 X 11.5 on a stock R33'GTR R17, which is 275/40R17 in the real world normal tyre speak. You would be better off with these as they are wider, and readily available from MT.

I have MT 275/40-17 today. Just want real slicks to not put to much strain on the drivetrain. Soft side walls. Any other slicks you can recomend?

If you want 17 inch ply slicks the Hoosiers are probably your only choice. Most running slicks go down to 15 or 16 inch wheel to get more sidewall - 17 inch drag slick seems a bit pointless for the sidewall profile.

I think you may have to just try them to find out for everyone ? Anything can be "made" to fit if you're dead set on using them.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
