well i aint really sure what you could fit, but, when i got my car resprayed, i believe i got a new tyre placard, coz it used to only say that i could have 16x somethin rims, max

and now, it says i can legally have 17x9 rims :D lol to me thats a bit of a score, coz i could technically have 18 on and it be legal not that i could afford em, but anyway..

sorry i cant help, but do post on what you get and what fits etc, i am interested too to know what fits :D

When I got mine, it had 17x8 on the back, 17x7.5 on the front. I changed them for 17x7.5 all round, coz I was worried about clearance on full lock. But the tyre man is a wanker - 8s will certainly fit under the rear guards.

Anyone had any experiences with Silverstone tyres before?? these are the ones he gave me a quote for and ive never heard of them before... and when he refered to them as "slipperystones" im not exactly that confident in getting them...

yeah theyre nice... BSA rims...

probably wont get them until after i get my GTR front end now.... altho theres always 6 months interest free :)

EDIT***

Theyre malaysian arent they?? :(

I like them tho so im getting them regardless

Ive got 18 x 8 at the front with 235/35/18 and 18 x 9 with 255/35/18 at the rear and have no scrapping what so ever, ive adjusted the height 4cm lower too, so tell that guy to get his facts right.

I was told i could even fit 265 at the back....

By the way those first ones would look awesome !

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
