17x10 +18 would be my pick for a R33 GTR. 9" +35 is too thin and offset is too high, +18 is a bit better than standard, but if u were going to have a 17x9 id stick with stock R33 GTR rims as they are better quality than the enkeis. 17x9.5 +38 is too high offset, +18 would work, but honestly if i was going to spend the $$ id do it right first time and go 10" wide. gives u more options.

Thanks, I'm having a look around and most tyres that are 255/40/17 or 265/40/17 are a large difference in price, which would be my main reason for going for the 9.5".

However the difference between 9.5 and 10" is about 7mm more sticking out in the 10" and 1mm less clearance, so the 10" is looking more tempting, I *could* run 255/40/17 on a 10" but might be a little stretched....

But I saw this section of this thread and 255 don't look stretched on 10" rims, hmm 10" is looking good.

Skyline model = r33 gtst

Wheel diameter = 20"

Wheel width = 8.5"f 9.5"r

Wheel offset = ?

Tyre size = 225/35/20f 245/35/20r

Modifications to fit = roll guards a little.

sometimes scrubs when turning and hitting bumps together.

Skyline model = r32 gtst

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = 8.5

Wheel offset =

Tyre size = 235/40/18

Modifications = car is lower and has the big R33 front brakes

(best pic i could find to show how low it really is) (is the tires and wheels specs above)

any one had a problem with the inner side of the tire scubbing the top of third link front only?

Fit good. May consider 10mm or 20mm spacers at some point after I lower it a bit. May go for a lower profile tyre also.,

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
