Will Stock S1 Rims Clear R33 Gts M Spec Brakes ?

[improvedae86]

Sorry i couldn't seem the find the answer in the FAQ's

Basically i am after a set of Stock Stagea rims the 16x7? 40 offset rims to cover r33 gts m spec brakes

The mesh style is the type that i seen on the cars and i am wondering if there the same internally diameter dimensions as say a r33gts rim , or a r33gtr rims clearance wise .

stock r33gts rim with the r33 gts brake caliper

Thanks

Series 1 stageas share the rear calipers with a skyline R33 GTSt, so i would safely say yes.

Talk to Tangles, i think he has a set of standard wheels for sale, last time i checked anyway.

Yeah i think rear wouldn't be such a problem as only 280mm , just the fronts are the 296mm disc and the four spots dont have a lot of clearance even in the gtr rims

Rear brakes are not R33 GTST, they are single piston floating calipers shared with the N/A skylines. In my case GT R34 (i am august 1997+ revision)

Standard Stagea S1 rims won't fit on the front of R33GTST's, the spokes hit on the callipers. They fit on the rear OK though. I tried it last week for the drags, as we have the MT ET Street radials for the rear mounted on the Stagea rims.

Is that an R32 GTSt wheel on a Hachi-Roku that I see in that post?

Would you say that say 5mm spacer would fix that problem ? I am using s13 struts with s14hubs and for the r32gtr rims to clear the strut i have had to machine a bolt on hub spacer of 20mm . So there is 20mm extra caliper spacing over the caliper from standard due to all the r32 rims being for a wishbone front end .

Yes that is a gts wheel on a ae86 . The front brakes used to be sr20det 280mm ones for many years , but since going to very modified s13 multi link rear i have decided to convert all the brakes and stud pattern to 5x114.3 to make finding rims easier . Finding 7.5 - 8 inch rims in 30-40 offset in 4x114.3 is next to impossable now . Is basically a 86 body now there isn't much left thats not nissan or from some other make.

Thought so.

SR20 into an '86 should make for an excellent combo!
