wreckedhead Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 why dont you use the standard r32 gtr wheels, they are cheap and you can use them for drag racing 16*8 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/61831-what-wheels-for-drag-tyres/#findComment-1166571 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clint32 Posted January 18, 2005 Author Share Posted January 18, 2005 yeah im looking at that as a option, im measuring up one in the next couple days to check Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/61831-what-wheels-for-drag-tyres/#findComment-1166593 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANWHORE Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 they are not that cheap. Although you get a few special prices here and there, they generally go for 1k+. there was a set that was just advertised for 1200.

MANWHORE Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 but they are very good wheels. I've got a set. very light suprisingly, they're wider than r33gtst wheels, yet their lighter!!!

siksII Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 they are forged which is why they are light. (basically) where as r33 rims are cast (heavier generally) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/61831-what-wheels-for-drag-tyres/#findComment-1166977 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chops Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 How about Falcon wheels? Surely there's about a million sets floating around, and you could pick up a pair from a wrecker pretty cheap.

Clint32 Posted January 19, 2005 Author Share Posted January 19, 2005 GTR 32 wheels have a offset too far out, they are the same as the ones i currently have, the tyres i have are 255/50/16 BF goodrich comp t/a drag radials so they are about 260mm overall with and i wont to run a neutral camber, GTR wheels are good on a gts with some negative on the rear I have found some toyota wheels, 16 x 7.5 that only just clear the camber arms and these should be perfect, the offset is about 16mm further inset Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/61831-what-wheels-for-drag-tyres/#findComment-1168337 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cubes Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 I will have access to a set of R33 GTR wheels soon, may even purchase them if they sit nice. I've swear i've seen a set on a R32 GTS-T and they sat really nice. However the car wasn't lowered. A little off topic + they are too expensive.

MANWHORE Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 r32 gtr wheels fir r33 perfectly, only fit a lowered r32 with a shitload of camber - about 3-4 degs and 205 tyres at thre rear without rollin gthe guards. I guess you could call it phat.lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/61831-what-wheels-for-drag-tyres/#findComment-1168422 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 BA Falcon rims with 1" spacers work a treat on my R32 GTR. Plenty of room under the guards so would probably be OK for an R33 as well.
