18x9.5 +18 Will These Clear R33 Gtr Brakes With No Spacers?

hey

i need to know if 18x9.5 + 18 wheels will clear r33 gtr brakes?

i want these wheels for my r33 gtr

thanks

yes. of course. by a long way! the factory wheels are only 17X9 +30.

They will be sunken into the guards a fair bit. I would suggest a +12 at the very minimum which will space them out even further from the brakes and fill the guards better. I still think they even look a bit sunken and personally would go for a 10.5 +12-15. They will be near flush with the guards on a r33gtr.

we need to know disk type, offset actually doesnt relate directly to brake clearance, disk height determines brake clearance.

yeah thats only if they are 2/3 piece wheels

?? that wasnt directed at my post was it?

please people, OFFSET DOESN'T DIRECTLY RELATE TO CALIPER CLEARANCE!! it only relates to where the disk sits relative to the centreline of the rim/barrel, caliper clearance is to do with the spoke design relative to the mounting surface of the wheel, a lower offset usually means the there it is easier to achieve more caliper clearance, but it doesnt directly relate to it.

nisskid is right you could have a negative offset but if the spoke design is wrong it may not clear the caliper
