I had 18x9.5 +12 TE37's on my R33 GTR and they fit pretty well, filled out the guards nicely, but with a 275/35/18 I got some minor scrubbing on full lock so I'd go a slightly thinner tyre...mine are currently for sale if you are interested :rofl:

I now have 19x10.5 +22 CE28's and they fill the guard out just as well, I wanted the fatness and that tough dished look of the 10.5 but didn't want the scrubbing so I went with a 265/30/19 for a bit of a stretched look and they don't touch anywhere, ever now!

thanks man, would 18x10.5" rims +15 be cutting it close?on say a 265 rim?

can you post some pics of your ce28s, must look crazy!

I'm not really the right person to be asking about offsets, I made a thread in here to ask about them myself!

I'll try and get some pics taken this weekend, would prefer to wind the coilovers down a little beforehand to get the stance right, so we'll see how I go.

please post pics peiople, really need to see what im getting.......even the ce28 pictures would be great help.....

Question...

would a 18 x 9.5" et12 te37 wheel have the more deep spoke look compared to a 18 x 10.5" et15 te37 wheel? since the offset is less on the et12, but the rim size is bigger on the 10.5" obviously....which one will give the more deeper spokes look?

ok, well here is a pic I took yesterday arvo, not really one I want to post because the car is filthy, the wheels are filthy and I want to lower it more, by quite a few turns on the coilovers to get the stance just right.....but just to give you an idea.

TE37 18x9.5 +12 275/35/18 Falken - could've been lower for a tougher look, but 18s are bit small in my opinion on a 33

TE37 19x? +? - just to show you how a 19in looks with what I call the right height, whereby the front has a little clearance from guard to tyre but the rear sits nicely just on top of the tyre.....which is the whole reason I went with 265s not any wider.

Well I don't use the car to go round corners overly fast, I'm more of a straight line guy, but yes I hear what you are saying.....but I'm talking maybe 1-1.5cm up front and maybe a tiny bit more down the back, just to have the guard sit a little closer to the tyre, maybe a looks thing, but I don't forsee me doing many mountain runs where its going to have a major impact!

    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much

    • 😜 hopefully we get this instead of a new R36 GTR due to recent financial problems at Nissan. Nismo to sell a complete kit with RB26 and driveline. All starts making sense (ok maybe not) once the Nissan Leaf's (Leaves?) with stuffed EV motors/batteries hit the market cheap
