Hi guys, Im looking at 19x9.5 inch wheels with +12 offset for my R34 GTR.

What tyre size would I be looking at exactly?

I want to make sure that the tyres would be 100% street legal for NSW ie: overall rolling diameter, speed and load rating, making sure that the tyre is allowed to go on a 9.5 inch wheel etc.

(load and speed rating for my stock 18x9 inch wheels is 93W 245/40/18 but the sticker on the door says they only have to be 89H or better)

Thanks

you will have no problem on a GTR34 fitting a 265/35/18 road tyre.

candy33 may be referring to a gtst rear fitment.

No i'm referring to a gtr.

I have owned several gtr's and can tell you with that offset and width you cannot run 265's without lipping the guards.

Hey buddy, ive got 19x10 +19 on my r34, it sits in a bit at the rear and i have wider front guards so its flush.

with a 275/30/19 it sits flush on the 10" rim, 265/30 stretches slightly, but i would go for a 275 as its closer in rolling diameter to the 245/40/18, plus it looks tougher!

(thats what we put on all the 19" GTR's we do, havent had to roll the guards on an r34).

an 89h is easily superceeded in 275 so as far as load/speed ratings, rolling diameter, and wheel track go, its legal.

I have some dunlops in that size going cheap so pm me if your interested mate.

Rubbish - you can run 265's on an R34 GTR easily.

On a 9.5" rim 265's are as wide as you want to go though.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      For me at least the reason why it bothers me is because it's indicative of a deeper problem. And that will nag at me forever. Especially because I have tailpipe emissions testing + evap leak testing every 2 years.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      WELP. I went to the track, and I suppose it went okay because any time you can drive home is okay. You may notice the car is not on the circuit in this picture. It was about 35C day out in Benalla which means the track was approximately the surface of the sun, probably. Good things, car did not overheat but it _was_ warmer than when I had done track days in similar heat before, I think, I'm not sure - I can't quite remember. Coolant got to ~105 via the ECU after 20-30 minutes of belting it in said heat. Oil got up to 145C in one instance which is pretty crazy due to oil cooler. Pressures were fine. I seem to remember this not getting quite so high before the vents. More HMMMM'ing to be done. On the subject of HMMM'ing, can anyone identify the sounds in the video below, you will know which ones I mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uj3BkI2cbTc I included some 'normal' sound as a reference for the first minute or so. The microphone in this instance was where the license plate is. It stopped working later in the day which is why my "best example of a lap video (not produced)" had internal audio - Isn't hearable from inside the car. I don't mean the chirping of the un-bedded/badly bedded track brakes which you can only hear while braking... Thoughts, brains trust?

      Did anyone here buy the crashed N1 R32 GTR at auction?

      blame old mate Hawkins for that one  I remember way back in the day the japanese didn't want them either... they always assumed a race shell would be thrashed. We found a few when looking for an R34 GTR for the Whites to drive in Targa Tas back in 2002.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      I know it's probably not going to cause any major engine issues. I just had a more generic concern that it's technically not running right (I guess this means the rpm is not sitting where it technically should be) Though the other thing is, it's that my steering wheel is shaking at 1,100 rpm at idle until it gets warm (seemed to happen after I tightened my alternator belt, will be testing the alternator soon).

      I mean, what's the concern here? Higher fuel consumption? FWIW my idle sits at around 800rpm or so as well. And yes, it runs fine, idles fine and there are no issues as far as I can tell. I don't quite see the problem.
