Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

[RB 30]

has anyone fitted R33 GTR rims to an R34 GTR??? How would they sit in the gaurds???

Chasing some 17's so I can get an bit of tyre flex on the strip, can anyone suggest any 33gtr altenitives ???

[Mangune]

Enkei Rpf1 can be a good choice..

Today I fitted my brand new enkei 18x9.5+12 with new advan 245/45/18, and on the left front wheel it scrapes with the rear of the arch when turning slowly? am I going have to get new tires with smaller profiles???

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

that's a big ptofile - normally a 245/18 will be a 35rpofile

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

you could:

• live with it
  
• roll guards
  
• camber
  
• buy smaller profiled tyres
  
• raise it
  

personally I'd buy some 235/40/18's

It only catches the side skirts front connection plate that comes into the wheel arch..... so annoying, I removed it becasue it was pulling it off tearing the plastic. Rarrrrrrh

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

the guard liner?

if you are hitting that it's a good idea to lip the guards just enough so they dont catch the tyre ever and tear the guard in half

(like blags lol)

Was thinking that but am unsure what + I need. Think it is around +20 to sit nicely in the guards of a 34 GTR

not the guard liner, on my r32 gtr the front of the side skirt actually comes around into the wheel arch and theres 2 screws,

im so happy with these matte black rpfs, and for unsprung weight reasons aswell, there super light, only 7kgs!!!!! Forged BBS LMS which are forged are 12kgs in the same size!

I'm thinking of a set of matte black RPF01 in 18 x 9.5 +12 for the evo

hi.just want to know if anyone fitted rota grid drifts 18x10 30 offset all round on a r33 gtst.from what was posted the rears should fit but will the front

[M@&k]

18x10 +30 will foul on the inside (rim against upright at full lock). I believe 18x9.5 +30 also fouls on the inside at full lock, but have seen some guys run it.

Hey guys,

Was looking at getting some: Rota GRIDR 18 x 9.5, 5x114.3, +20 Absolute Green

To put on my '99 R34 GTT, It's currently lowered with stocks wheels still on it, doesn't have a camber kit as far as I'm aware. Anyone know how hard/easy it will be to get these to fit? Camber kit or rolling guards should be fine? Or just spend the money now and get a camber kit right away.

Cheers, Zac

Those rims will fit but you will need to roll guards n do some liner work.

Otherwise it all also depends on how much camber you do end up running as well as tyre size.

As far as camber kits go, they are only needed to reduce camber after lowering the car (essentially you can have heaps of camber from the stock arms if ur car is lowered, it is getting less than 1-1.5 degrees that is the problem once it is lowered). Obviously this isnt going to help the rims fitting as taking camber out puts the tyres closer to the wheel arch that is the limiting factor in actually fitting big rims with lower offset.

Any suggestion for tyre size? Its daily driven for now. So pretty much i'd just be looking at rolling the guards abit and giving it abit more camber, i love camber but don't want huge amounts as its daily driven,

[ouzy]

Specs: Fronts: 19x8.5 +23
Rears: 19x9.5 +27
Tyres: Hankook V12 245/35- fronts, Hankook V12 275/30-rears

how will these fit on a r34 gtt?

or what need to be done to make them fit?

cheers.

stretch is against my religion. But a 235 should see you right.

Otherwise camber is also a bad thing in a street driven daily unless you dont mind paying the $ that it costs in how much quicker you chew ur tyres out because of said camber.. but around 1 degree on the rear should see the rims n tyres fitting as well as minimal tyre wear from it.
