anyone have pics or have fitted 18 x 9 +30 with a 235/40 on the front of a 32 gtst?

i got mine on atm, adn its mm's from touching the uca, but i just would like to see how low people have gona with at the front

i am running coilovers so i can adjust, but cant drive car as engine pieces getting powdercoated

Nick

i'm looking at getting some meisters for my r33

looking at

19x8.5 or 9 at the front

19x9.5 or 10 at the back

what kind of offset is required? it wont be slammed i want to roll the lip on the guard

heres how it rides atm wit 18s 265s on the rear and 235s on the front no idea on offset of rims

okok thanks for that if those offsets are for sitting flush with the guards i mite go a bit lower in offset so its sticks out like 5mm

so something like 19x8.5 +25 and 19x9.5+30 and hopefulli i wont hit the guards when i put the dampers on the hardest setting

the issue is 19's arent great for fitment because u cant gain as much clearance by stretching tyres

from another thread in this section:

fitting a 9.5 +22 with a 225/45 tyre would actually be pretty easy, my main concern is being a 19" wheel, even though it will be the same amount of stretch, the angle will be sharper, like so:

the blue is a smaller wheel with a larger profile, and the red is a larger wheel with smaller profile but same size tread. the green is at sitting height, the yellow is on compression, the angle change in the 2 guards is due to dynamic camber, obviously in real life its the wheel/tyres angle that changes, but its easier to just show the guard changing angle.

as u can see the lesser angle of the sidewall on the tyre on the smaller wheel allows the guard to come down further, even though the offset, rims width and tread width are all the same. hence why its really hard to get agressive fitment on higher diametre wheels.

so its hard to really get the fitment right with them. with the specs i gave u, depending on the camber they will probably just stick out of the guard a few mm at the rear.

Hey everyone. First time posting here I believe. PM'd a few guys about things, but that's it.

Anyway, I have a set of TE37's I was planning on putting on my widebody Sileighty (S13.5), but since decided to go another route.

I currently have a '93 R33 GTS-T Type M coming across the Pacific and was wondering how well my wheels would fit.

In the front I have 17x9 +0 and in the rear, 17x9.5 +12.

I have no clue about Skyline offsets and to be honest, did not want to take the time to go through so many pages.

If someone could help me out, that would be super!

They will stick out the guards by heaps. About +25 to +40 is ok for a 33 GTSt.

Are you from the states?

u can make them fit, but u will need guard work, silvias usually have more clearance in the rear guards, the fronts are similar how ever.

heres a few pics, R33's have a bit more clearance than the R32's.

Ive been reading through but just getting mixed answers

I have a 96 r33 gtst series 2. Currently has 17" work's not sure of the offset.

However i dont want to do any gaurd rolling or flaring (dont want to damage the paint) so im assuming i couldnt get anything over an 18"

What size, width and offset would you recomend for stock gaurds?

THANKS :D

width and offset play just as big if not bigger roles in clearance than diametre. u can make a 20" fit if u want, u just cant go as wide or have as low offset as a 17".

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
