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?

Skyline model = '97 R33 GTST

Wheel diameter = 17

Wheel width =8s, 9s

Wheel offset =+40 +40

Tyre size = 235/45

Modifications to fit = None

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.,

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
