OK guys I know how sacrificial and immorale this may sound but I just can't help it,

I wake up in a cold sweat everynight even thinking about how wrong it must be

But I loooooove the BMW wheels in the pic and was wondering if a photoshop expert could please photoshop them somehow onto my ride.... i just think they would look sweet of i got rid of the BMW badge..........

If someone could help me with this would be much appreciated....

Below is the pic of my car and the wheels that i just can't stop thinking about, i currently have 17's and would like to put the BMW look alike 18's on.....

photoshoppers ....please help....

they kinda remind of the do luck double six but with a few extra spokes....

anyone know if they would they fit a r33 gtst?

GTshortie and 51jay are 100% correct.

I have a BMW, and I have a GTR.

BMW is 5x120 PCD

Nissan is 5x114.3 PCD

They won't even slide onto the hubs because the hub bolts are in different spots. Just because they have 5 holes in them, doesn't mean they're the same.

And you're completely forgetting about offset too. BMW E46s use a +40mm offset front and rear and won't be right for your R33 GTS-t.

You can get hub spacer’s machined up to suit that stud pattern. Like the 4 to 5 stud bolt on hubs, thus bolting onto your 4 studs and the spacer having 5 studs. As you already have 5 studs, I can’t see why you couldn’t get them machined up, but have the new stud pattern made to be 5x120.

These wouldn’t be an off the self-item, and would be custom made of course. Then you have to deal with the BMW off set being wrong…

Work out easier getting rims to suit a Skyline in opinion. But hey be different, could be interesting.

Am talking to a metal engineer friend of mine on Tuesday about seeing what can be done with the wheels as we have a public holiday on Monday (YAY!)

Too scared to think how much it would cost but will soon find out!

anyone managed to do a bit of photoshopping for me??

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
