I've done a search but can't find my answer...

- Is anyone running 17x9 all round? specifically on an R34 GTT

- Will 9" fit the front? seems most people go for 8"

- Can I go for the same width AND offset for front and rear? I was thinking 17x9 with offset in the range of +30 to +35.

specifically for a 34 GTT and only 17"

cheers

The offsets seem a bit too low.

if it's for a GTT

17x9 +20 is definitely not too low offset, IMO i wouldn't touch anything with a higher offset than that. Hell, i'm going to be running 17x9 +0 and 18x10 +12 on an S13 soon, will look tough as!

Hi guys just need some help while on this topic.

Ill looking at buying 18inch wheels with 18x8.5+43 Rears 235x40 & 18x8+41 Fronts 225x40.

Will these offset fit my R34 gtt?

Would it clear the brakes?

Thanks guys

Please don't, those offsets will look like complete AIDS on a R34

jesus this thread is a brothel!

you can run way better offsets than have been mentioned here...

i run 18.9.5 +30 (18x8.5+30 front) on an r33 gtst with no flare and near flat camber (just a roll) and its an easy fit... the 34 guards are bigger again, so 9.5 +20 will get you about the same fitment as me, and i still could go out a bit more... say another 10mm before i need to flare

Most people are way too conservative with offset. 33's can definitely fit +20 9.5" rims at the rear and +20 8.5-9 at the front with guard work and it will look a huge deal better than +35 and above offsets. Just don't run bulgy oversized tyres. 265-275 for 10", 255-265 for 9.5", 235-245 for 9", 235-225 for 8.5", 225-215 for 8". Any lower width and the rims are no good for a turbo skyline.

R33 GTST easy but wide fit would be:

Front = 18 x 8.5 +30 235/40/18

Rear = 18 x 9 +30 245/40/18

A little roll at rear - with 1degree neg camber both front and rear.

Keep in mind that you don't want big changes in track widths front to rear.

R34 are a bit bigger so:

Front = 18 x 8.5 +24

Rear = 18 x 9 +24

Not that I can think of rims that are these exact sizes. I currently have 18 x 8 +30 and 18 x 8.5 +33 and they sit about 1cm too far in the guards on R33. Come tyre replacement time I will get 245/40/18 for the rear - up from 235/40/18.

Hi,

I have not been sharing much since i came on the forum. I am from malaysia and here what i have for my setup.

18x9.5 +12 all around

F: 225/45/18 -1 camber

R:245/40/18 -2 camber

[ wheel was off a R34 GTR, got it cuz it was dirt cheap and thought the offset should be manageable]

I have not flared my guards so i been scrapping on hard bumps on all 4 wheels for a few weeks now. I am looking to get camber arm to help go negative even more. This is the part i need some guidance on. Now i have jacked up the suspension so the scrapping is to the minimum. There is a few people in here i have PM that helped me; it still work in progress.

im running 18x8.0 on the front, unsure of offset i'd have to check with 235 rubber no guard work

and 18x9.0 +24 with 265 tyres no guard work.

back wheels sit flush, maybe stick out a mm or 2. looks good

thats on r34gtt
