Skyline model = 1998 R34 GT-t

Wheel model = Blitz (not sure what model exactly, all I know is that they are 3-piece, and 5 spoke)

Wheel diameter = 18

Wheel width = Front 8.5, Rear 9.5

Wheel offset = Not entirely sure, picture attached though

Tyre size = Front 245/40, Rear 265/35

Modifications to fit = Again, not sure (was on the car when I got it...)

Well, that was my OLD set up (accident = damaged wheels = need to buy a new set!)

Which brings me to me to a question!

Getting some Enkei RP03s, and looking at the following:

Fronts - 18 x 8.5, +30

Rears - 18 x 9, + 18

Any thought on whether this will work?

There is a 18 x 10, +22 option aswell.

Any thoughts appreciated!

Go the 9+18 all round

Was thinking that. Would there be any issues with this on the fronts? (i.e. any modifications required, wheels poking out etc)

Don't think there would be any issue with the rears...

So im considering getting some work xd9s for my 33 gtst its at stock height atm

but i plan on getting coilovers first to lower it a bit,

just wondering what the xd9s in 18x8 + 28, and 18 x 9 + 20/30 would sit like

on the car, and if theres much gaurd work to be done, i dont mind rolling but not too

keen on the flaring, dont really like how it looks on 33 guards.

and not too sure i want to go 18 x9, 18 x 10 which ive seen most people getting

xd9's look best in

17x9.5 + 17 front 18x10 + 18 rear

the design of xd9's really need the biggest sizes for the bigger lip to look good.

you could do this without flaring the guards. you will need to pump them a little or use camber.

would probably run 235' fr and 245 r

Hey everyone just wanna quickly figure out if a set of wheels will fit my car without too much scrubbing..

They are 17x8 & 17x9 work cr Kai's with +38 offset..

My car is pretty low with teins coil overs and I'm running r32 gtr rims with no scrubbing at all any Ideas if these ones above will scrub or will I need to modify the guards?

Cheers

Looking at new wheels for my Gtt, Im putting a gtr front end on, What would be best for the front? Would 17x9 +22 all round suit or would if be better to get 18's to fill the guards? x9 +22 is fine on the rear? Car is not stupid low just on legal height.

Stupid low is way cool. :domokun:

    • What type of track driving will you be doing?  Do you have a set of class rules you need to abide by that will limit your rim / tyre width?
    • I've been reading a lot lately about unsprung weight and how beneficial it can be to reduce it for driving on the track, given my semi's only have another day or two in them I am throwing around the idea of some lighter wheels and a square set up. I have 265/35/19's and 245/40(?)/19 Federal 595's at the moment. The wheels and tyres are super heavy. I looked up my wheel weight online and got 14.5kg naked. Not sure if this was 8.5 (front) or 9 (rear) but that's a lot. I have also been reading about the benefits of a square setup. Much better rotation and potentially less understeer.  When I throw these together I'm thinking about a 17x9 or 18x9 square (preferably under 10kgs per wheel) with 245 or 255's. I can get some cheap 17x8.5 BMW M Sport wheels, they weight 10.5 kg's each but at 8.5 wide could probably only get 245's on them? I know they come with 255's from factory but semi's are a bit chunkier. Otherwise it will be aftermarket wheels in a 9" width. Most of the other BMW wheels are heavy unless you pay a squillion dollars for some M wheels.  Although, the E46 M3 Style 67's could be good but I'd have to buy 2 sets to square them up.  My car has a tickle over 400hp and about to put an LSD in also, is 245 a little thin for a square setup? It kinda feels that way to me. Also, is there any tangible benefit to having 18's over 17's? Is the footprint demonstrably bigger? From those of you who went to light(er) wheels after heavy buggers, did you notice it much?
    • Start with the R32 GTR wiring diagram. The ECU is essentially the same, so the pinouts are good. The details around ECCS relays, etc might differ a little bit, but the reality is that you need to get ignition power to kick the ECU so it powers up the ECCS relay which brings the rest of the ECU up. This also gives power to the other circuits that are needed to make the engine run, like the ignition coils, etc. All of this is visible on the R32 diagram and should give you a strong guide, even if it's not quite the same as the R33. As to specifics - I'm pretty sure no-one can help you from afar, as there is no way to know what mistake or omission has been made in connecting stuff up. It always turns out to be "LOL, I shorted something and an entire wire vanished out of the loom", or "We never connected X or Y main connector", or "shit, you mean I need to have that fuse installed?".
    • hello wanted some insight on what my problem could be so i swapped a RB26DETT into my r33 gtst used a R33 GTR engine harness and im using a haltech platinum pro. The car cranks but no start the ecu isn’t getting any power now im trying to find out why i cant seem to find any schematics  or diagram for the engine harness for the r33 gtr anything helps thank you.
    • hahahaa @GTSBoy that is my last resort. Like use a cardboard and cut it using the indicator as a reference. But I was winging my luck to see anyone had a spare bumper because drawing the outline off the hole is always easier and less chance of mucking it up
