should do with guard rolling and even some camber. Should look good.

Do a search for 'volk' int he thread about best looking wheels on a skyline and im sure you will find someone else who has done it...

Will front 19 x 8.5 +27/ rear 19 x 9.5 +24 fit on a r33 GTST? The rims are Volk GT-Cs

Yes. The rear lip will tease just out the guard. Maybe by a cm or so.

The front will sit inside the guard by a smidgeon.

I'm speaking from experience aswell. My rims are 8.5 +25 and 9.5 +25

I know its been done to death but...

My ECR33 currently has 17x8 +35 F 17x9 +38 R which sit totally safely but look a little weak.

I am looking at some 17x9 +25 wheels all round

Current ride height is 330mm centre of wheel to guard.

I want to run 255/40 on the rear and as little negative camber as possible- will this require much guard work?

Just about to buy set of new Lenso D1R rims for my 32GTR

I don't like stretched tyres on rims so looking for right size rims to sit flush with guards without any part of tyres or rims poking out so thought i'd ask you guys your opinions

I can get these 2 sizes which i think would be right for a 32GTR

18x9 +15

18x10 +22

Would the 10" rims fit both front and rear on these cars without poking out?

Now in saying this i don't like the look of stretched tyres either so i would need something around 265 or bigger right?

Don't mind running staggered fitment either as long as all fits under guards

Any help appreciated as want to get it right first time

Thanks for input earlier guys, ended up getting the 18x10's with +22

So next question i have is tyres

Obviously there are so many to choose from but ones i'm looking at are Toyo's flagship T1 Sport tyres

Sizes i was considering were either 265/35, 275/35 or 285/35

I'm kinda leaning towards 275 at moment

Anyone know if i'll have any clearance problems if i choose the 275 or 285 options?

Hey guys.

Any of yous running something like::

Rims: 18 x 8, +38

Tyres: 235/40

all around on the R34 gtt?

my main concern is whether it'll rub on any of the suspension parts, given its high offset.

any help would be heaps appreciated :)

Want to go with something ridiculous! Currently got 18x8.5 +22 and 18x9.5+22 on my 32 gtst. Rears sit flush with guards and fronts not so much.

Was thinking of going 18x10 +10 and 18x11.5+10. Got coilies and front/rear camber adj. so don't mind having to pull some crazy camber to fit them under the guards. Alternatively, I was thinking of going GTR front fenders in the near future but I want that tough pumped/flared guards look. Thoughts?

Lollll your front will sit a further ~31mm further out than your current wheels so I'd say yes you would need gtr front fenders and the rear is going to sit 37mm further out and I'm pretty sure that would require a flare from memory for a r32... But I'm sure one of the r32 guys will clarify that for you! Good luck!!

GTR front guards plus rolling/flaring and 30-50mm rear guards would be required in your case.

My neighbour is attempting to whack 18x10.5 +15 with 265/35 semi slicks on his 32 GTST, he is getting rear guards flaring quite a lot.

Just curious, what wheels are you getting?

Thanks guys! I figured as much. Now just deciding if I'm going to go widebody rear fenders or just go flares...

Wheels I'm planning to get Count Grantleyish are Meister S1's. Love the way they look on 32's

Wise choice.

I've got a set in 18x10.5 +22, pity 33 GTR guards are huge, these look sunken even on standard suspension... Also sunken on my previous 32 GTR which was reasonably lowered.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
