here is a 9.5 rim with 275/35/18 (on the rear only of course being a GTST).

2 things to keep in mind though.

Just because a tyre is 275 (or whatever width for that matter) doesn't mean it is exactly. Iv seen 2 255 tyres next to each other and 1 was over 1cm wider than the other. Same goes for sidewall profile. ALso for rim width too from what iv been told.

And, really how it looks also depends a bit on how the car sits- e.g. offset in the guards, camber, height.

Hey guys is there anyone out there running 9inch wide rims with +35 offset on a r33 gtst i have been researching to see how they could fit with but havent had much luck

Start from page 1 on this thread. Just about every wheel/tire configuration has been done.... especially on a R33 GTST.

Hello. I'm setting up a r33 4 door

I'm gona be using 18x9.5 with 225 40 all round

I'm not sure what offset to use.

My settings will be 0 camber rear and -3 front

(Also) my front lower controll arm is pushed out 20mm for my drift steerin lock needs.

I'm looking for flush or 10mm poke all round

One other thing to think about is I would like the same off set all round so I can rotate at track days when my tyres are getting low.

Any ideas? +22?

How low are you going? Pulling fenders? 4 doors have a different rear quarter panel than two doors so I'm not sure how that'll turn out nor really can help you. Front, suggest a 30-35 or more. If you already added 20 in front because of arm, it'll add more camber and length right off the bat and will affect normal setups cuz it messes with hub location. I have Driftworks lower and uppers. I'm running a 18x9.5 +30 245/40 w/ -1. It sticks out a few but not much. This might be a trial and error adventure for you. Find some buddies with different wheels to find the offset for you. Bribe them with beer if needed.

Curious to know what offset you are running? My 9+22 sits out slightly further than this. Sorry if it has been mentioned. Is it a 9.5 on the front as well? Btw nice clean car.

The rears are 9.5+38 with a 275/35/18 tyre. So yours would be 9.5mm further out (16mm more offset -6.5mm less rim width on the outer edge). Also keep in mind my ride height (fairly low) combined with camber arms running less than .5 degree of camber- so sitting very straight.

Fronts are 8.5 with a 235/35/18 tyre. They actually sit in a bit further than is aesthetically perfect but they do not rub anywhere under any conditions. Though it does in contrast also make the back and the dish look fatter :P

Here are some pics from the front so you can get more of an idea what it looks like.

Yes she WAS a clean car. I am assuming it isn't anymore as it was stolen last year and never recovered. I was praying for the scum to be found wrapped around a pole...

Here is my R33 Skyline GTS-t with 18" Enkei RPF1

Front 18X9.5 + 15. 235 tyre with -3 degrees of camber

Rear 18x10 + 38 (5mm spacer) 265 tyre with -2 degrees of camber.

I could just squeeze my fingernail under the rear guard

Here is a white 33 which out did mine

Enkei RPF1′s – 10.5″ +15 offset wrapped in 255/35r18 (rear) 9.5″ +35 offset wrapped in 225/40r18 (front)

Fronts look like much lower offset than +35. I'd say more like +15, else running spacers. I run 18x9 +30 which would be roughly same as 9.5+35 and mine sit in much further.

Looks tops though, really like RPF01s in good size and offset on R33s. Also agree on your opinion of XD9s (what I have) ;)

Does anyone know if

Front: 18 x 9.5 +35

Rear: 18 x 9.5 +20

Will fit on r32 gtst (gts4) with rolling no flailing, not super low, std camber.

It's a 32 gts4 so I need to run same size and width. Cheers

Most likely yes. Here is a 18 x 9.5 +12 rim on the front of my GTS-t. It is "lowered" on pedders springs and bilstein shocks(still super high) and has no guard rolling. There are no issues with it hitting anything because it is so damn high lol.

Hi all, I'm purchasing a set of rota grids in the next month. I originally wanted 18x8.5 +35 front & 18x9.5 +30 rear. Now the offsets they stock are the other way around. Will this make any difference on how they will look or mods needed. Will they still sit flush?

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
