Hey guys,

Been looking at maybe getting some Touchdown TD136 rims from Cartel for my 33GTST.

How easily could I fit (F) 18x9.5+22 ® 18x10.5+25??

Also, does anyone have any of these rims on their car that they have a photo of??

Cheers all.

Ok, I've since found out only the 18x9.5 +22 clears the brake calliper in the Varrestons on the front.

Might be a bit too aggressive fit

Hey mate, are you saying the +30 option for varrstoens WONT clear the brakes on the front?

I was thinking of going 18x9.5 +22 rear and 18x9.5 +30 front as the fronts poke a bit more and im not really after that.

This is on a 33 gtst btw

I have pics on the last page of 18x9.5 +22 (-2 camber stock guards) 18x10.5 +30 (0 camber slight pump/flair)

Yeah, it doesn't clear the calliper according to the guy from Varrstoen

HELP OFFSET EXPERTS HERE:

Im trying atm to work out how far the wheels i am looking at buying , will stick out from my guards on my R34 GTR

Currently i have 18 x 10 +22 and looking at buying 18 x 9 +10 from my calculations the +10s will stick out .5mm less from the guards than the +22s .

Basically got the width of the rim 9 inches x 25 mm = 225 mm give or take and halved it for zero offset = 112.5 mm minus 10mm offset = 102.5 mm

10 inches x 25mm= 250mm = 125mm 22mm offset= 103 mm

Can anyone confirm this ?

Thanks

Plenty of examples +22 fronts getting around. It's too much poke if you like driving your car anywhere.

As for the rears not sure. But last seems quite aggressive.

Cheers guys. It probably is a bit aggressive for a daily, so I think I may have to reassess my options.

Would I be correct in saying (F) 18 x 9 +30 ® 18 x 10 +35 would fit ok?

That will sit inside the guards, and I hope like hell it'll clear your suspension on the rears.

Sitting a fair more inset then stock, why not just go 18 x 9 + 30 all round, and get spacers if need be?

yeah man, 18 x 9 +30 all round works nicely. I understand you wanna go bigger on the back, but if you keep em the same your can rotate your rubber. even just go a 255 on the rear and 235 on the front.

You wanted 19s, couldn't get them, so decided on 20s instead. This says a lot about your personality...

Look think what you want about me I don't really care.

The reason I got 20's is cause I wanted that style of rim and I was told I couldn't get them in 19's.

so I hit 20's at the same price as 19's so I'm not complaining.

Advan RG2's 18x9 +29 all round.

235/40 Sumitomo's (minimal stretch)

Suspension lowered to minimum legal height ( pretty high )

Front guards untouched, rears slightly rolled but wouldn't need to be.

Rims sit flush with guards, perfect fitment.post-116191-0-24551100-1379064184_thumb.jpg

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
