what is a good offset for a 18*8 rim for a R32 GTS-t also was thinking of having 235/40/R18 fronts and 265/35/R18 rears. is this a good idea

thanks

if you want 265 on the rear go for 9' wide on the rear,

anything with an offset between +30 and +38 will be fine (if i remember right stock is +35 front, +38 rear)

ne here rollin on 20's ? or are u all on 17s and 18s

Skyline model = V35 Sedan

Wheel diameter = 17"

Wheel width = 7"

Wheel offset = 45

Tyre size = 215/55/17

Modifications to fit = Non car is stock at the moment.

Have you tried to buy 20" wheels in the right width and offset for a skyline or any car for that fact.

I am looking to fit

Front 20 x 8.5 +35 245/35/20

Rear 20 x 9.5 +45 275/30/20

So far have only found one set but everyone at the office thinks they are ugly.

My car is pearl white.

Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

R33 GTSt

Wheel type= Rays Gramlight 57S

Wheel diameter = 18''

Wheel width = 8.5 Front, 9.5 Rear

Wheel offset = +30 Front, +38 Rear

Tyre size =235/40/18 Front, 265/35/18 Rear

The car has stock suspension, no mods to fit; no rub on front at full lock, rears still fit in guard no overhang at top. No need in really going much bigger on a R33 GTSt but that hasn't stopped any one before. whatever, whatever.

everyone at the office is correct

Not the help I was looking for but everyone is entitled to their own opinion even if they only have 17's :laughing-smiley-014: .

V35 350GT

Wheel type= BSA Wheels AU 213

Wheel diameter = 20''

Wheel width = 8.5 (F) 9.5 ®

Wheel offset = +35 (F) +45 ®

Tyre size =245/35/20 (F) 275/30/20 ®

They fit with no modification, no rubbing on full lock and turning in on driveway. Ride is not harsh conering is better (obviously) rolling diameter is so close to original it doesn't effect speedo or acceleration.

Pic's to follow later.

Hi guys,

Just wondering how 18x9 +25 front and 18x10 +25 rear would fit on a R33 GTS-T?

How much modification to the guards would be needed, a bit of rolling, possibly some wider front guards?

I have seen these sizes and offsets fitted to a 180sx which I believe has 25mm wider front guards and rolling done on the rear. They fit nicely, stick out a bit at the rear end.

I would imagine an R33 would have more room under the guards than a 180sx, especially at the back?

Cheers

Skyline model = R32 GTST

Wheel diameter = 17"

Wheel width =9"

Wheel offset =+20 & +30

Tyre size =215/225/235x45xR17

Modifications to fit = Rollage of gaurd on front and rollage and slight flare at the back!

post-16187-1184754947_thumb.jpg

yes they will fit!

Will these fit on the R32 gtst?

I dont want to lip guards and will i have any troubles with scrubbing?

Looking for wheels which will cause no legal problems :)

R32 GTST

F: 17x8 +30 with 235/45

R: 17x9 +30 with 235/40

front wheel (stock offset 25)

The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 18mm LESS

The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 8mm

back wheel (stock offset 38)

The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 5mm LESS

The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 21mm

Thanks

I've got 17x8 and 17x9 with +30 offset front and rear.. 235/45/17 all round

so, front will be fine but rear u need to lip and flare the guards (if car lowered)

How low can i go without scrubbing?

Curently have some shocks/springs which may drop height down to 340mm

Rekin, that "clear r2 indicators" link in your sig is broke...

link fixed now :)

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
