The question of what wheel size fits what Skyline comes up so often I though this might be a good place to post your own wheel dimensions.

Just copy and fill in the table;

Skyline model =

Wheel diameter =

Wheel width =

Wheel offset =

Tyre size =

Modifications to fit =

One of mine as an example;

Skyline model = R32GTST

Wheel diameter = 17"

Wheel width = 8"

Wheel offset = 35

Tyre size = 245/45/17

Modifications to fit = remove the front inner plastic guards, roll rear lip slightly.

:( cheers :)

Skyline model = R32 GTSt

Wheel diameter = 17"

Wheel width = 8"

Wheel offset = 32

Tyre size = 235/45

Modifications to fit = Roll lip

Just copy and fill in the table;

Skyline model = R32 GTSt

Wheel diameter = 17"

Wheel width = 9"

Wheel offset = 37

Tyre size = 255/40

Modifications to fit = Roll lip

Good work Sydneykid, now let's see all the R32 GT-R people posting!

Skyline model = R32 GT-R

Wheel diameter = 18 Inch

Wheel width = 9 Inch

Wheel offset = +24mm

Tyre size = 265/35/18

Modifications to fit = None

Just copy and fill in the table;

Skyline model = R32 GTSt

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = 10"

Wheel offset = +1mm ;)

Tyre size = cant remember probably 245 or 255

Modifications to fit = Roll & flare guards, stick out about 4cm from existing guards. needs a rear bar for them to look good... not good for defects..... almost needs widebody...

haha the rear looks like a AE86 drifter

Good work Sydneykid, now let's see all the R32 GT-R people posting!

Skyline model = R32 GT-R

Wheel diameter = 18 Inch

Wheel width = 9 Inch

Wheel offset = +24mm

Tyre size = 265/35/18

Modifications to fit = None

Any idea how much clearance you have to the strut and also does it touch the inner guard lining on full lock?

Mine -

Skyline model = R33 GTS T

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = 8.5" front / 9.5" rears

Wheel offset = +30 front / +38 rears

Tyre size = 225/35R18 front / 255/30R18 rears

Modifications to fit = None. Car is on slightly lowered springs, very rarely will touch inner plastic guard when at full lock and hittin a pot hole at the same time <_< .

I think i've posted this link about 100 times or so in this section. But it's a very useful link.

http://marksink.com/tire_wheel_offset/offset.html

Use this to enter the offset and width of you current wheels, then input offsets of wheels you will like to buy and it'll tell you how far it'll stick out compared to your old rims, and how much clearance you'll have with the strut housing.

(maybe sk you should add this to the top post)

Thanks for the link, the idea of the thread was to get the guys posting up their actual real world exeperiences all in one place. I don't know about anyone else but I have real problems with using calculated changes (one rim to another) to know whether or not the wheels will actually fit. An example, so it's 5mm in further, does that mean it will hit on the inner guard or not? Then there is the brake calliper clearance issues.

Thats why I wanted to have a whole heap of real world results for guys to look up.

:P cheers :)

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
