Hi guys,

I'm looking at some Tri spoke rims for my r33 gts-t. They're being sold without tyres. Basically, these are the specs:

17x9 20+ fronts

17x9 35+ rears

I know little about offset etc, but will these wheels suit my 33? Please bear in mind that the car is lowered slightly, but I do with to go lower down the track with coilovers etc.

front perfect rear to sunken, but they are tri spoke so i wouldnt buy them there ugly as.. all sorts of fail.

Here's my wussy fitments lol

Skyline model = R33 GTST

Wheel diameter = 17"

Wheel width = 8 front / 9 rear

Wheel offset = +35 front / +38 rear

Tyre size = 235/45 front / 245/40 rear

Modifications to fit = None, straight bolt up. Very safe fit

front perfect rear to sunken, but they are tri spoke so i wouldnt buy them there ugly as.. all sorts of fail.

I really like Tri Spokes, i've always had a thing for them, so they suit me fine. You mention that the rears will be too sunken? Will they look noticeable shite? Or is it something that could be compensated for with wider tyres etc? Basically, i'm just worried that they will look out of place given that the offset is rather different between front and rear : ( Can anyone explain? As i'm not very good at this business.

It will look wierd. It's 15mm different. A 15mm spacer for the rear will fix it up easily.

Are the tri spokes super advans?

Aaah damn it. Oh well, i'm walking away from that transaction then. FYI the rims are Zeldas. Some people will hate them, but I really liked them.

Sometimes you just have to look at it and say, 'it wasn't meant to be'.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
