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

Hey guys, I'm new to the site so forgive me if I don't know what I'm on about.. I've got a 1996 Series 2 r33 and I've currently got 17's on it. I'm wanting to buy some XXR527's and increase it to 18". Question is, what's the best fitment (offset etc) I was told 18 x 9 +30 would fit best?

Go through the thread, look at what people have used. Though 9.75+30 would be a safe but aggressive fitment.

Visually the difference between the 8.75 and 9.75 may be the amount of dish, but we are talking minor differences.

Hey guys

Im looking at rims for my 32 gtst.

The rear has over fenders so not worried about fitment as far as poking out of standard gtst guards but more about brake and inner clearance. But would like them to fit front standard guards....... Although may go gtr fronts to

My options are

work 11 R

18 x 9.5 +12 all round

Work DR9

18 x 9.5 +23

18 x 10.5 +23

Work T7R

18 x 9.5 +22

18 x 10.5 +22

Will these have any fitment hitting struts brakes etc etc?

also any one have any pics of any of these wheels in these specs?

thanks.. im just unsure if ill go wider front guards to at the mo.

so the smaller rims i have listed are for the fronts with standard rolled and slight flared gtst guards...

just making sure they wont foul the suspension and brakes etc etc

sorry, meant to say callipers

I ran 9.5+12 all round. fronts needed a roll/pull and liners removed etc. easy easy fit

probably 15mm poke

poke on r32 gtst guards? front or rear?

      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.
