Okay thanks. So the 255/40 is slightly smaller than the 235/45. Obviously this would have an effect on the speedo reading. would this still be a good option for the rear, or am i better off sticking to 235/45 all round? Intended use is track days, hillclimbs etc, with occasional street driving (ie. to and from the track)

Cheers.

hey guys scratchin my head on whether to grab a set of wheels. i want just a clean fitment basically flush with the stock guards with just a roll and lowered.

fronts are 8.5 +30 i know these will sit nice and flush

rears are 9.5 +40

now are these going to sit in to far that they will look complete odd and different when compared to the front or are we talking 5mm will make a match. or is 9.5 +30 what i really want to match the front? because i could live with 5mm but probably not 10.

basically there a good buy and been searching for a while

cheers coops

Go 225/40R18 and 255/35R18 for the same rolling diameter as stock :blink:

well going by that then im better off going 9 +22 all round so they sit +14 more fronts and +12 on the backs making it sit flush

being Te37s as well theyll have the concave look and not look so crap

agree?

9 +22 all round is a much better option as long as you have clearance to your struts :)

  • 2 weeks later...

Skyline model = r34 gtt

Wheel diameter = 19inches

Wheel width = 8 front 9 rear

Wheel offset = +23 front +9 rear

Tyre size =215 front and 225 rear

Modifications to fit = everything lol, flare, roll, pump, remove inner plastics.

next set of rims will be even more ridiculous probs go bolt on flares

Hey Guys,,, :D

Sorry.. Bit of a noob when it comes to tyres etc

I'm chasing some tyres for an 18x10.5 rim (Rear)

Would someone be able to suggest what size tyre i should be chasing?

For an R34Gtt Running Full Cusco Coilovers and arms etc

Guards will be rolled...

I just ordered 265/35R18s for 10.5 +30s on the rear of mine :(

235/40R18 is a good option for you as well.

Skyline model = R32 GTS-T

Wheel diameter = 17" enkei RPF1

Wheel width = 8.5" front and rear

Wheel offset = +30 front and rear

Tyre size =215/50/17 front and 225/45/17 rear

Modifications to fit = none. and the fronts rubbed the guards quite badly. didnt want to have to modify guards as i've seen other r32s with modified guards and they look terrible, unless converted to genuine GTR guards. so i got rid of these wheels lol

    • I also used Knox driveshafts when I the slip yoke T56 to the 3bolted TR6060 type. I believe I was one of his first jobs as it literally changed hands when I was there, started by the old owner and finished by the new. Everyone seemed pretty great about it. So wasn't shy/seemed pretty knowledgeable when dealing with weird custom people like me.
    • Just a reminder orange park was cool back in the day   and drifting the main circuit was even cooler   f**k I miss that car  
    • We used Knox Drive shafts years ago when we were doing gravel rally, good guy but I heard it had changed hands? He's got a lot of stuff and is miles cheaper than GJ and so on. He used to have a lathe setup with a MIG torch on the tool holder so he could get the uni welds just right, quite a clever guy. I just got a driveshaft done for my sequential installation and that was through Balancing Services Australia in Preston, they did the Gibson cars in the old days. New genuine CV's, billet yoke, new centre bearing and chome moly shaft was $2k.
    • Thanks for sharing that mate, I've got a couple of spares on the shelf but all the unis are tight....will give old mate a shout. BTW are you sure it wasn't just a $400 paint job? Any detail of what they replaced (cut/reweld?)
    • Yeah I saw that about the US Q50 recently, apparently it was shown to Inifiniti dealers (probably to help with their depression about the cars they can sell). Seemed like a really obvious step to me, the platforms are very similar in many ways. Even if there aren't many people who actually put the money up it should really help with image/reputation. What hasn't been clear anywhere if that is a V38 model of if they are just going to add the trans as an option in a new model year. What they did with the Z from 370z to "Z" is just weird so I'd be surprised if they released this as a V38. Great news for me to have an option; it is far from confirmed that I can get any decent track sessions through the auto so having a manual I can swap to is great.
