asking whether the offset is gonna be flush to the guards.. i dont mind the wheel size

imeant they will be too skinny.... they will not sit flush at all.

i run 17's on the front's of my car for street and all round for track.

nice fitment! how are the fronts? any scraping on lock etc?

also more pic please.

cheers rich

Will post up more pics (probably in the Post a pic of your R33 thread) in a few days when I take some new pics. Fronts aren't currently rolled and there is a bit of rubbing on the guard when turning, putting new suspension in now so will definitely need a roll afterwards.

was good advice true :whistling:

It was indeed! cheers.gif fronts didnt rub at first, and I was afraid on the day because the rear guards were done and f**ked the paint completely, although it was because of rust/bog from shoddy repairs, I just wouldn't have been able to take it if all 4 corners had wrecked paint.

But thanks wub.gif they look awesome!

Thanks Hamish, yep trial fit them yesterday and fronts did stick out about 25mm, will have to change to 235 and hopefully tyre will sit inside the guard.

How did these wheels turn out for you in the end?

I'm also looking at 17x9 +22s for my R33 GTS-T, but don't want to make a mistake with all that cash...

    • They are, a good friend of mine bought one to replace his blow factory turbo, running a Toshi Tune reflash. Just use their supplied water/oil lines and you're good to go. At the time, they were like $900 delivered.
    • This is an option for 100% bolt on, the GCG high flow -  https://gcg.com.au/turbo-charger-upgrade-skyline-gtst-2iu-xtrgts-s1.html Also, I'm pretty sure hypergear does a high flow that is 100% bolt on, it just doesn't make as much power as their bigger high flows.  Even if you get a hypergear turbo that requires you to chance the intake piping, it is a really simple modification. It can be as simple as a piece of silicon hose and you pop a filter on the end. It doesn't have to be some crazy pie cut titanium work of art intake pipe.  If you have the ability to swap the turbo yourself, you would be able to sort the intake piping out. 
    • Just as a thought, if it's in neutral, thats your drive line disconnect, not the clutch. Clutch slip at the dyno with pedal fully out, is actually adding a second disconnect. So it's not a clutch issue if you're in neutral. Just a bit of friction dragging the output around while in the air.
    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD?
