I don't have a car to physically check but my HCR32 had 8.5J and 9.5J on back when I had it many moons ago. Can't remember the offset exactly but it was low (stock is +40), around the +20 mark. They just poked out a little at the front with no guard rolling or anything. Due to the design of the wheel I ran a 10mm spacer to clear the front calipers. 
Hopefully someone has the exact or very similar size to those wheels you're looking at to give a more certain reply.

For what it's worth, according to the Spec Tank page (Japanese) which I trusted with my current car to get the right size, even at 8.5J +30 (they don't have data for 9.0J) the rim might interfere with the suspension or inner guards at the front. It says it will extend 10mm inwards with that width of wheel. As for poke, it will increase 15mm outwards at that wheel width and offset. Add at least 12mm(?) to inner and outer measurements for 9.0J.

Don't get the fronts at 9x28. 9x30 (ie, the R33 GTR size, as previously discussed) is so close to poking out that you'd probably suggest that they actually do poke out.

The rears at 9.5" +38 probably won't fit. I was just under my car yesterday dealing with a broken toe control arm at the rear. I have 8" +35  (I'm pretty sure they are +35 - given what Enkei currently offer and that I bought mine many many many years ago). It's pretty flush on the outside on the LHS of the car and offset in about 10mm on the RHS (so, typical Nissan rear subframe not centered in the car bullshit). There is at least an inch of clearance on the inside to everything it could hit, on both sides. So I could clearly run a 9, but I don't think a 9.5 would be viable.

Using an offset calculator (to make it easy), the 9.5 +38 you want is going to stick in ~22-23mm more than mine. So as I say above, that should clear the suspension. The outside though? Going to stick out an extra 16mm. That would just poke on the RHS of my car and would be hanging out in the breeze on the LHS. Terribly.

I think 9" is the max that works on either end of an R32, and it is a squeeze at both ends.

Those are terrible descriptions of what is going on because you start reading the sentence and halfway through it seems to flip the meaning.

What you need is photos of the wheels in the sizes you're talking about with the disc options being talked about, so you can see if you think the fronts would look stupid.

I would think that if you had more curved spokes on the front so that they tuck back inside wheel more and leave more expose lip (compared to the rear), that it would look stupid . But you really should see first.

Is it not a thing to use the same disc on the rear so that it looks the same/better as the front?

How is it "ASAP" before the wheels have even been made?

If someone is out there making the wheels they should have diagrams of spacing for brake calipers and all other stuff for people in the very first run of a set of rims to consider.

Anyway, here's a link from this forum with R33 GTR wheels on a R32 GTST.

And here's a post from you, in that thread, with the same question. They won't poke out the front. They're 2mm further in from the fender.

Get 18x9 +30 all round and call it a day. Or 18x9 +28 all round and call it a day. Then it'll look the same.

If the +30 set and the +28 set have different faces, well, that's when you get into asking them for diagrams for brake caliper clearance.

Yes it's done to death but I need an answer asap as I have a chance to buy either set of these wheels

How will these fit on a R32 gtst standard guards and body. Rolled guards.

perfect, 235 front, 245 rear wide tyres, roll guards to make them fit.

as long as it clears your brakes

    • 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.
