R33 Stock Tire Size


Recommended Posts

I was wondering what was the stock tire size on a R33, is it 205/55/R16 I just want to confirm this.

Also are there any differnces in the stock wheel tire size between the S1 & S2.

Thanks everyone

There's actually 2 tyre sizes for the stock rims.

1: 205/55/R16

2: 225/50/R16

If you look inside the driverside door arch of a R33 there should be a sticker with this info on it.

The stock rims for S1 & S2 were both the same, so there is no difference.

Hope that helps you.

Cheers :thumbsup:

So your saying both of these size would fit the R33 stock rims ??

Thanks

both will fit, im fairly sure from factory they had 205/55

225/50 is the same rolling diameter

I'm not having a go at you but a profile of 50 would be 10mm smaller diameter than a 55 profile on the same sized rim, so how could they be the same rolling Diameter?

Im not 100% sure but i think this is how it works-

205*0.55=112.75mm

225*0.50=112.5mm

So the difference in rolling diameter is only 0.5mm, practically the same.

I wouldnk't run more than 205 on a 6.5 inch wheel. Wider is not better.

it' sjust not wide enough for the 225 tyre. 225 fits perfectly on an 8" wheel.

6.5 inch is fine for 225. The recommended width for 225 is 7 inch, this is coming from the tyre manufacturers themselves (Goodyear) and 6.5inch is within the range that they state. You know that 225's came on the stock 6.5inch rim from factory right? Also if you look up on Google about tyre and wheel widths there are some websites which tell you how to calculate the correct widths.

    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work 
    • You can just get the injector bosses, which allows top feeds to fit. He can use the same injectors without issue, like these (another option): https://rocketindustries.com.au/af59-2210-rb25-fuel-injector-inserts     The Racework ones look a bit better: https://www.nzefi.com/product/raceworks-lower-injector-mounting-boss-kit-for-r33-rb25det-s14-s15-sr20det/   You could also just get a similar kit like the Radium one by Plazmaman: https://plazmaman.com/product/nissan-rb25det-r33-billet-fuel-rail/?srsltid=AfmBOoogfYq49X0fu2Wdbf8yOf6zt9egyPAif_gn3Qr3G8hzAphhTgOkO70
