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?

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
