Looking at getting wolf s1p will 18x10 + 35 fit rear? Otherwise this

Skyline model = r33 gtst

Wheel diameter = 18

Wheel width = 9

Wheel offset = +27

Tyre size = 235 40

Modifications to fit = ????

10+35 SHOULD fit rear, I had 10.5+30 and it fit no issues.

Other than that, the 9+27 would be near on perfect.

Thank you to everyone within this thread that answered my questions and provided info, and ultimately helped me select my new wheels (width and offset) Here's the end result (minus big brake kit awa

Thought I'd share my setup since there doesn't seem to be much info/examples out there for this particular setup. Perfect for spirited driving on back/mountain roads, not so ideal for daily driving or

Looking for some ideas on what size tyre I should run on my new wheels? These are on a 33 gtst.

Current specs are: Front: 18x8.5+35 235/40 Rear: 18x9+35 265/35.

With my mildly rolled guards they fit easily 15-20mm inside the guards and I can fit my almost my whole hand in and around them in the guard and get pretty much no scrub at full lock or anything but I'm not sure if I kept the same tyre sizes it would clear everything easily and not scrub like all shit. My new wheels are 18x9+20 all round so a fair bit more agressive offset but nothing crazy. I don't want much stretch and would like the largest and most practical tyre sizes I can fit without more guard work. Any help is much appreciated! cheers.

18x9+20 with 245/40 all round :)

Rolled guards, front upper control arms to help tuck it in. Bit of scrubbing otherwise

Hey guys I'm looking at buying a set of enkei RPF01's for my r32 gtst, I'm just wondering wether 18x9.5 +15 fronts and 18x10.5 +15 rears would fit

Not a chance without work. Well, they'll fit... drivability is probably not great...

My 18x9.5 RPF1's all round on the BNR32 barely fit as width goes.

I can't remember if the GTST fronts are same but you'll need to run 245's if you want to not rub the guard liner.

You'd have 1inch sticking out at the rears with 10.5's, not even camber alone with get that back..

Lol this guy ^

What look do you want and how much work ate you prepared to do?

If you run 225 and 245 you will easily make it with camber and a big guard roll.

If you are going for something that will still grip then expect to pull guards a fair amount

Guard liners won't be an issue as they will have to be removed anyway

That's exactly what my old wheels were and it fit fine. 9.5+38 265/35 on the rear and a 8.5+30 235/40 on the front.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By V35Newbie · Posted

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.

      Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
