Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines


Recommended Posts

I attempted to use search for this, but it came up empty.

I searched for a known size, still naught.

Don't think it likes numbers.

So........

Anyone know/ have pics of 18x10.5 +22 on a 32 gtr?

How close are we going to get to guards, suspension?

Justin's 32 gtr would be closest to these spec

He's running abit of camber up front (more than 3 if i remember), he has a build thread on JDMST

If this is the wrong place to ask, let me know and I'll start a new thread!

Will 18x10.5 +22 with 265/35R18 fit an R32 GTR at standard height without issue?

Any modifications required?

What if I want to go lower in the future - say low enough such that the top of tyre is flush with the guard.

Wheels I am looking at are Work S1Rs, so offset is customizable in 1mm increments over a huge range.

sooooo im looking at ROTA grids.. (yeah yeah but im too povo for TE37's and the stockies are looking a bit tired)

which would fit better on a 34 GTT without flared or rolled guards?

18x8.5 +30 or 18x8.5 + 44?

just looking for a good fitment without any scraping/rubbing/stretching/modifying

(i've tried looking back through all the threads but i cant seem to come up with a simple answer which would fit)

edit:
just found a post from 2006 that was selling a set of LMGT4's which looked alright
(18x8.5 +30 and 18x9.5 +38 if anyone was wondering)
might see about upgrading the rears

Go the 8.5+30. Shouldn't have any issues at all at stock height. Won't be an aggressive fitment at all though. Would be very stock looking.

    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
