Hey guys would a set of 18"s 9.5 and +26 with 255/35 tyres all round fit fine without any issues on a four door r33gtst stock height?

Edited by BrOwnY GT

Hey guys need some advice been looking through this topic ALL night and still unsure of what to get. Ok I have an r33 gtst wanting 18 by 9 or 19 by 8.5 in the front and 18 or 19 by 10 in the rear. I want to run at least 265 40 tires in rear and 235 or 245 40 tires up front. Really want this height cause the roads here a kinda bad, willing to drop to a 35 in height but that is the absolute lowest I can go. Now I was wondering what offset I would need for the front and rears to make the wheels fit with as little modification as possible? I can adjust height and roll guards if I have to, but that is all I really want to do. What offset do I have to run to make these combinations work?

I was thinking an offset in the low 20's would work for the front and low 30's high 20's for the rear?

What do you guys suggest?

this will be a little different from the norm..

Skyline model = R33GTST

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = 13

Wheel offset = a magic number

Tyre size = either a 275/35/18 or 295/35/18

Modifications to fit = Widebody

Havent had a good look, but I should be able to fit 18 x9 18 x 10 +22 on a 32 gtst with a little camber and slight roll pretty easy yeah? What tyre sizes would people reccomend? Thinking 215 and 235 in a 40 or 45?

my fronts are 18x9.5+12 with 225/40 r18 tyres ,modifications to ift are rolled guards and remove the inner plastic .

and the rears are 18x10.5+22 with 245/40r18 tyres ,modifications were rolled and flared guards done by a mobile guard roller/flarer

i have about neg2 on the fronts and 0 camber on the rears . hope this helps at all .

Pics please! You must have some stiff coilovers

Hi there, fairly new to the skyline scene, and not sure if the wheels I've got in mind would fit or be too wide... Any advice you could give me would be appreciated. I've got an N/A R33 which has the 4 stud hubs. I'm gonna be doing a 5 stud conversion soon, and so I'm starting to look at wheels. I've got a set of wheels in mind... They're 18s which are 10in wide all round, with 30 offset. They're coming off an S15, so I'm under the impression that means they should fit my 33 with no problems after the conversion? Correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks guys.

Ah, yeah true.

Anyone got pics of 9.5 +22 on a 33 gtst? Got some Rays in mind, pretty confident they'll fit but wouldn't mind seeing how they sit

they will sit 3mm further out then my professors did....

AWWWWW come on guys no help!!! Help please?????? Open to suggestions. What is the widest tire size I can run in the rear and mods would I need to make these rims fit front and rear? Looking at 18 or 19 by 9 up front and 18 or 19 by 10 in the rear. I dont mind rolling the guard and a bit of camber but if it can be avoided I would like to if not I am willing. Offset for front +36 rears +43

Just copy and fill in the table;

Skyline model = R32 Gtr

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width =10"

Wheel offset =+12

Tyre size =235 40 18

Modifications to fit = none so far.

    • 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.
