Anyone able to tell me how 18x9.5 +22 front and rear would go on a 32 GTS-4?

If anyone's running that or similar on their 32, what tire sizes are you running and how much work if any was needed on the guards?

  • 2 weeks later...

if you know the offsets of your current rims, go here http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp and it will tell you how the other rims will sit relative to your current ones

Found a photo of a 33 with D1R's at 18 x 9 +32 which look fine

Used that tool suggested above and seems the 8.5's will sit 10mm further in the guards....

Thats not to bad I guess unless I just get 9's all round

Thought there was a difference between the position of the front and rear hub, but I guess not. Theres a fair few people running Identical wheels front and back that look fine

Thanks for that tool pistol-pete, good enough to work out from the photo i found how it will look :blink:

might find the offset for my wheels and check out comparison for them to when i find the time

look for my car 18x10 + 20 rear

front is 18x9.5 +15 w/ +25mm front fenders or look for hamish (joeyjoeyjoe's) car he is similar specs to what yo are after.

to answer your question is yes it will fit, yes you will need to roll and probably pull fronts a bit yes will look good

Hmm not sure of current offset might check it out another day

If +30 is flush for 9's then I dont mind if they sit 5mm in the guard if that's true lol

I have D1R in 18x9+32...they sit flush at front, but the back could be spaced out about 15mm or so...might be worth going 9.5 in the rear? I'm going to buy spacers for the rear. Doesn't look bad as it is though, unless you're one of those hella flush people who have to have to have the guard rubbing tyre before it is considered cool :banana:

Will need to roll guards if you're sitting lowish though...I kept scraping when cornering.

Hey everyone,

Looking at ROTA G-Force 18x9 5x114.3 wheels in gunmetal

Would a +27 offset fit? I was recommended by ROTA for the +27s, but i was told by tyrepower that my guards would need to be rolled with +27s, and that i should stick with something from a +30 to +40 offset, so i was initially going to go for the +35 offset on those ROTA's

Anybody know which fits better?

Thanks everyone

Hi Guys, I have read a fair bit of this topic but am still struggling to figure out what offset etc to get. I want to get a set of TE37's in 18's for my R33gtst. It only has coilovers and isnt crazy low and I dont want to roll the guards or anything like that. What would be the best width and offset for the front and back? I know it depends on what sort of look you want as well , i just want something that sits neat in the guard if you know what I mean. Thanks for the help.

Roll the guards - it doesn't hurt in anyway. You can go 9" front and 10" at the back +30 to 39 for both front and back which would be fine

27s are fine you might need to roll your guards but thats no big deal. back i wouldnt think need rolling depending on your ride hieght you can go much lower offsets too.

look for dezz he had te's on his 33 and try find sizes they sat exactlty as your asking but i dunno what specs or pm him .. either way. id suggest something along th lines of 9+30 (f) and 9.5 +15 ® should be safe could go slight higher if offfset if your worried like +35 front and +20/25 rear

Thanks guys much appreciated. I'll post what what I end up getting which may be awhile becuase I want TE37's in black which are proving to be hard to get unless I order them brand new. Thanks again

Vehicle: 1992 HCR32 GTS-t

Wheels: Work Emotion XD9

Sizes: 18x9+20 front and 18x10+18 rear

Tyres: Bridgestone Potenza GIII's 235/40/18 fronts and 245/40/18 rears (minimal stretch)

Guard modifications: Fronts - mean fitment/no rubbing, rears - rubbed shitloads until we rolled and flared the rear guards. now barely ever rubs unless i go over a big bump on the road at over 70-80kms

Height: Slightly above legal limit

Comments: Front didn't change much in terms of camber etc but rears cambered in a little and produced a bit of toe-in once we dropped the jack. never got around to buying a camber/toe adjustment kit but it didn't feel like it affected the cars handling very much so i didn't bother.

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
