Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

[Gregors]

Do you know the offset of your current rims? If they are the ones in your sig, I'd say they will be about the same as the ones you want to buy. Do you have coilovers?

I dunno wat they r, ill have to take wheel off tomorrow n check.. No coilovers only damper adjustable shocks.

i cant see an issue as the offset is quite high so it should sit well within your guard i dont have a 32 though.. whats the current wheel offset u have?

you an always go a smaller tyre OR roll your guards it wont effect ur paint/body work and will give you more clearance if u want bigger tyres.

I have to check in the morning what my current offset is.. Nah its not that im worried about having 2 roll guards, id do that with ease.. im worried the wheels r gonna sit too far into the guard n look mega gay. lol

they will look ghey because they are 19's

and the +40 offset will give them aids

Found some secondhand 18" driftek for sale

Front: 18x8.5 +35 multi stud 4 or 5 hole 114.3 PCD  225/40/18

Rear: 18x9.5 +18 multi stud 4 or 5 hole 114.3 PCD 245/40/18

I know the fronts should be fine for a r33 gtst but what about the rears? An offset like that is more suited for a gtr I thought. What would be required for them to fit a r33 gtst?

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

fronts will sit in a long way compared to the rears... my guess is they came off a car with bolt on spacers for the fronts

to fit the rears you will need to flare the guards (you could also just lip them and use heaps of camber and stretch a 225/40

[alr33x]

nah rear will fit easy with a roll joey..

front will look a bit crap should be ok for brakes cos of hte rim design but it wouldnt be my first choice but u are limited drifteks only have 2 options

sexual 32 i'd stay away from anything over +25 personally that way you will get pretty close to flush fitment and if you go 18s you can go lower fora nicer stance which it sounds like thats your aim..

[delljit]

Thanks for the input I'll prob stay away from this particular deal

might just stick to something like 17x8 +32 / 17x9 +35 (iirc) as far as drifteks for the gtst goes

[alr33x]

you'd be better off with the lower offsets if your wanting a nice stance over all the gts-t guards are fairly accomodating witha roll and will look shit hot..

upto you good luck!

[delljit]

those offsets are pretty conservative. My main concern is staying away from spacers and stretching/camber although I am fine with rolling

Skyline model = R32 gtr

Wheel diameter = 18 inch

Wheel width = 10inch

Wheel offset = +20

Tyre size = 275x35 x r18 all round

Modifications to fit = Roll all guards

sorry i missed this.

lower offset means stick out more.

so conservative as your mention +30 or higher will be very sunken causing you to need spacers.

you will find you can easily fit 9.5" + 18 with a roll

[Jaysiin]

been searching this whole thread, so many opinions.

r33 gtst.

looking for 18 or 19" wheel. been looking at volks.

whats a good offset that wont scrub? i dont want crazy look with a wheel halfway poking out. nice and flush-ish. but has to look faat.

reccomendations?

[alr33x]

a bit contradicting u want fat but no poke..

im gonna guess that you'll be prepared to roll you guards.

if so i'd suggest 18x9 +20 front and 18x10 + 18 - +25 depending how much camber or what tyres your gonna run etc.

others might have different opinion but specs similar to that will give you a nice look, but depends on ur ride hieght to

hey alex, on that topic, i just ordered my new rims for my 33, 18x9 + 20 and 18x10 +18 (rear) im gonna run a 235x40x18 tire on the rear, how much camber do you reckon ill need to get some hellaflushness happening? guards are already rolled flat...

^^^^^^

i'm running the same on the rears atm

not sure how much camber i'm running atm basically lowered on coilovers will be going lower once my c spanners arrive!

i reckon 2-3 degrees should be sufficient
