19x6.5 +30 would be the most fitting, but that is about as helpful as having Paris Hilton on ur team for quiz night.

need more details, what u want to run, what sizes/offset are available, what look are u going for etc etc

The question of what wheel size fits what Skyline comes up so often I though this might be a good place to post your own wheel dimensions.

Just copy and fill in the table;

Skyline model =

Wheel diameter =

Wheel width =

Wheel offset =

Tyre size =

Modifications to fit =

One of mine as an example;

Skyline model = R32GTST

Wheel diameter = 17"

Wheel width = 8"

Wheel offset = 35

Tyre size = 245/45/17

Modifications to fit = remove the front inner plastic guards, roll rear lip slightly.

:P cheers :)

Skyline model = R33 GTR

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width =10"

Wheel offset = +20

Tyre size =285/35/18

Modifications to fit = 10mm spacer to fit over massive AP Brakes

Brand Of Wheel: Gram Lights 57 Pro

Skyline model = R33 Gtr

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = 9.5"

Wheel offset = +12

Tyre size = 275/35/18

Modifications to fit = None

Brand of Wheel = Impul NS-GT

Skyline model = R32 GTR

Wheel diameter = 17"

Wheel width = 9"

Wheel offset = +15

Tyre size = 245/35/17

Modifications to fit = None

Brand of Wheel = Enkei RPF1s

Skyline model = R34 GTT

Wheel diameter = 19"

Wheel width = 8.5"

Wheel offset = +38

Tyre size = 255/30/19

Modifications to fit = Coilovers

Brand of Wheel = Buddyclub P1s

hey guys,

Looking at buying some xd9s but im just deciding what offset i want. I know that the 18x9 +30 will definetly fit in the front but....

Will 18x10 +38 fit the rear? will the guard need to be lipped? or flared? or both?

thanks in advance

we need tyre size, its one of the most important parts of tyre fitment. u will most likely need at least a roll, maybe a flare depending on how wide u go with tyres, camber and suspension.

if i was to stretch 235's on the rear with the guards rolled, would this fit or still sit out of the guard? In terms of suspension, i have coilovers already, so lifting it and lowering it isnt a big issue.

Don't know if anyone is running R34 GTR rims on their 33 GTSt so here goes

Skyline model = R33 GTSt

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = 9"

Wheel offset = +30

Tyre size = 235's all round

Modifications to fit = none (about 1.5º neg camber on the front)

car feels more balanced with same size rims/tires all round... better than the staggered fitments I used to run... and now I can rotate when the rears are worn... food for thought

I have an ECR33 that supposedly had:

- 225 x 50 x 16 Tyres as Standard on the Front

- 225 x 55 x 16 Tyres as Standard on the Rear

Can someone confirm this is the case as I am having a little trouble with a Roadworthy Inspector checking the size of my current wheels/tyres. I understand based on Vic Roads regulations you can only have a larger width by 25mm, and larger diameter by 15mm. I'm just not sure what the original numbers were.....?

does anyone know whether this would fit a 32 gtst??? im guessing they'd be a little too wide but what about with a little lip or what not?????

haha no idea :P

will they fit

mm, hard one, id say the fronts should just fit with the 225 tyres, the rears are interesting, usually anything that width/offset id say no as it would foul on the tie rod end, but with the 19" diametre i think it should clear that, but im not sure what the next clearance issue is at the rear as that is f**k all inner clearance. as far as guard clearance goes u will need to roll ur guards, but u shouldnt need a flare.

standard is 205/55 R16 all round.

check ur tyre placard tho.

okay now that the rims are on the car i can finally post my specs:

Skyline model = R33 Series 2

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = Fronts 9" and Rears 10.5"

Wheel offset = Front 18x9 +22 offset, Rears 18x10.5 +16

Tyre size = 225/35/18 on front, 245/40/18 rears

Modifications to fit = rear guards rolled and the ever slightest of flare. Front standard

:P:D:P :P :D

ive only got some quick snaps of it off my phone. but here they are anyways.. i will say they stuck out of the guards a good inch or so, but now ive lowered it they have tucked themselves in.. anyways pics as requested :D hope you like my choice in wheels

just a quick indication of how much they stuck out before the car was lowered on them.. and yes i am expecting to go through a lot of tyres due to inner walls being worn but thats they price im willing to pay for the look i want on the car. lol

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
