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

Would 17x8 +28 with 255/40/17 tires fit on the front of a R32 GTS-T without rubbing the fender or impacting the suspension?

This question comes from an argument I had with a guy who claims it would be fine. However I want to be proven wrong.

I have a '98 R34 GT-T. 

I had some Rota Grid 18x9.5 +35 and 18x10.5 +35 with 235/40 tires. 

Fitment looked good but the fronts actually scrubbed on the inside suspension when turning too far. The 235's on the 10.5's were also a bit TOO stretched for my taste.

So I just installed some Work Emotion 11R 18x9.5 +20's all around and kept the 235/40 tires. The fitment looks perfectly flush with the rear fenders but sticks out considerably on the front. VERY aggressive but it DOES fit with stock fenders and doesn't scrub. Sticks out more than I was hoping but I do like it. I don't intend to roll unless I somehow end up scrubbing. I'm running stock GT-R shocks/struts.

Car definitely gets more looks now. :)

I'm sure this has been beat to death but after searching and not having luck figured this would be the thread to ask my fitment question on.

 

Have a 91 r32 gtst

Trying to run 18x9.5 +20 with 265/35/18 on all 4 corners. Is this going to rub like crazy?

 

Current setup is as follows:                                   17x7 +47 215/45/17 and 15mm spacer up front. 17x8 +47 235/45/17 in back

Hi all

Just bought an r34 gtt. Currently has 18x9.5+22 front and back with 235 to the front 255 to the rear. Tyres are pzero but have 30 % tread left on them, so is basically undrivable in 1st-3rd with 300kw and 885nm.

I have hks coilovers lowered with about a 2 inch gap from guard to tyres. Guards are all rolled too. Currently the front scrubs but I think this is on the loose inner wheel plastic guard (so I don't think I could or would really want to go bigger than 235 as I would need some more camber or raise the car)

With the new tyres im thinking of buying, can I afford to go for a 265 or 275 on the rear or will a good quality 255 suffice?

When I ask can I afford to go, obviously anything is possible, but would anyone have a photo of this so I can see what it would look like?

Guys please assist. Wheels and I just do not get along. Someone are good at it, I am not!

My r32 gtr is lowered on hks hypermax coilovers. Currently sitting on 17's with a 225 tire.

I want to purchase te37's preferably 18inch and be able to fit a wider tire. Nothing insanely aggressive, but proper looking.

I want 18's because I will most likely be upgrading the calipers and need them to fit. the stock brakes are garbage. 

Also, no rubbing issues!

Please suggest. 

Thanks

 

I'm not a noob, promise. Just suck with wheels

      What accelerator cable can be used with greddy plenum

      By Duncan · Posted

      I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
