Gtr Nismo Wheels On A V35 Gt Coupe

[Garage Menace]

Hi all.

I have a set of 18" RAYS / Nismo LMGT2 3 piece wheels that came off an R33 GTR and another set that came off an R34 GTR. Question is, are they a direct bolt-on for a V35 Skyline GT coupe? I do not have the offsets in front of me (and I am not an expert on them anyway) but I hope the vehicle's they came off will give someone in the know a clue if they will fit. The exact wheels are in the pics attached.

Thanks in advance.

Out.

It all depends on the offsets.

I've seen GTR offsets in the low teens. Something like this may not fit unless you do some serious guard rolling.

Being 18" the diameter will more than likely be fine, as I've seen V35's go to 11inch wide without too much drama.

The offset is really your only issue. If they are in the low 20's, high teens then you may be right. As an example a +22 offset is almost perfect for a V35.

Yeah, without offsets it'd be impossible to call.

They look a little sunken in on that R34 so its definitely possible, but I wouldn't stake my guards on it.

You can run an 18x9.5 +22 and 18x10.5 +22 on our cars without rolling the guards.

If you're willing to do some mods to the car (front and rear camber adjustment equipment, rolling the guards) you can fit aftermarket R34 GT-R rims onto our cars. There's a guy in the US running 18x10.5 +15 rims all round on his 350Z with 275 width tyres, with guard rolling and lots of camber.

Unfortunately he's taken his pics down from that thread (and other threads don't show it), but I remember that it did look retarded on the front since the tyres stick out with the amount of camber being run. An OK look if you're building a race car, but it looks a bit ghetto on a street car.

Take a wheel off- it usually has it stamped on there if you wipe away some dirt.

I will say that they will fit for sure. They look to be the same or more sunken than standard R34 GTR rims which are 18x9 +30. I have seen 19x9.5 +17 and 19x10.5 +18 on both V35 and R34 GTR (same rims that we tried on) and the rears were flush with 275/35/19 tyres and the front we still a little sunken in but not as much as in your pics.

you might have to remove the locater pin

they will fit fine. I have gtr offset in the back, it fit but need to roll the guard. 19x10.5 +18
