19 X 8.5 On Stock Skyline 33?


Recommended Posts

hey guys,

just wondering if someone could tell me if a set of 19 x 8.5 would go on a standard 33 gts-t thats not dropped at all without rubbing or hitting the calipers.

i was talking about this topic with a friend, he has a set of 17 x 9 and he has guard rubbing when he full locks the steering. its not noticable when just driving in a straight line or if hes not full lock on the streering. he's cars been lowered 2.5", so just doing the math.. i assume, the 19" would fit my car?

putting the rims on the car at the moment isn't a posibility either..

any input would help heaps!!

You wouldn't know whether a wheel would fit or not until you actually try them on. All wheels have a different spoke design. Just say you were given two wheels with the same specs (offset, width, etc.), but different spoke design, one could fit and the other might not. You wouldn't know whether the wheel will fit unless you try them on or someone has had experienced with them.

Also to make it easier for someone to determine whether a wheel will fit or not, you need to give us an offset for the wheels you're talking about.

Cheers

    • Well, maybe not. The main feature of Chinese manufacture seems to be incredibly variable quality, coupled with an apparent willingness to find a way to see even the stuff that fails QC. So the military could still take the cream of the production run and somehow sell the "sellable but not really useable" stuff to the stupid round eyes on the other side of the world.
    • Have you adjusted the clutch pedal rod? You can wind it in to shorten it. Just can be a cnut to get to.
    • Yes sir, that was me. Fake ARP's are also a thing over here in Canada and we only order from reputable dealers. It's sad that even simple things like bolts and hoses are now also being copied... anything to make a dollar.  Story time. Like all cheap crap from China, it's even an issue with firearms. Roughly 15 years ago, I purchased a new cheap Norinco 12g shotgun. First time out in the bush with it, while firing, bolt assembly didn't lock and it fired out of battery. The receiver also being cheap steel, basically exploded in my face. I was lucky to be wearing eye protection. Long story short, don't buy Chinese junk. Also Norinco being state run and their only military arms producer, if ever they do try and take over a country, don't worry about it lol. 
    • Installed  Nismo coppermix twin competition spec last year in my bnr32 with pull trans with Oem slave cylinder. The point at where the clutch disengages/enages is right at the top of the clutch pedal, meaning I barely have to push the pedal down for the clutch to be disengaged.  You guys that have the same combo are you experiencing this high pedal bite point??   Secondly I’d like to have the disengagement point lower meaning I have to push the pedal more(further not effort)for it to be disengaged.  I’m thinking to use a Nismo big operating cylinder(bigger bore at 13/16 vs Oem 3/4) which will require more pedal stroke to get the equivalent movement at the clutch fork. But I see Nismo web site says not to mix these 2 as the Nismo big operating cylinder doesn’t have enough stroke to disengage??? Any folks run both the coppermix twin pull with Nismo cylinder??    Thanks in advance for the replies but prefer only guys with pull clutches to respond. thanks
