Hi, I've got a 1994 R33 NA and am wondering what 4 stud wheels fit, I have found a set but am unsure if they will fit properly. The wheels I found are 17 X 7.5 Wheels 4x114.3 +47. Would they fit straight on? Before anyone says try them on, I'm looking to buy these interstate. Cheers.

Alright cheers, does that mean they will look weird? How would they look in comparison to stock 4 stud wheels? I don't have a kit or anything. Spacers, would they work and what would I need?

Well if the offset on an n/a is the same as the turbo it is +48 (??), other words the rims you want to buy will sit 1mm further out from the guards than the wheels u have now. Preffered offset for an r33 is +30 cuz it sits nice and flush with the guards.

tbh id look elsewhere. itsa good buy but would be shit on your car. i run 18x8 with +38 offset and its sits real nice. so anything around that ballpark figure is what you want. anythingx8 with +30 to +38 would look nice, 7.5 is just too skinny for an R33 imo tho. moar grip = win :P

Silly NA's, just when you thought you found something.... The hardest part is finding wheels that actually fit, then theres the part where they have to look decent without costing a fortune, its impossible, impossible!

anyone know how will 18x7.5 rims with a 45 offset look??

finding it very hard to find rims, and found a cheap pair with those specs ^

Can anyone give me some advice where i can find rims plus tyres(dont mind if new) for under 800

theyd sit too far in the guards i think. i have 18x8 with +38 offset and theyre just in the guards by about a mil.. look awesome tho

    • Surely the merged entity will be called "Honda" given the relative company values. I've got to be honest, I don't understand how merging 2 companies that missed EVs (despite Nissan making the first mass produced one) will solve their problems
    • If you haven't bought the ECU yet, I would strongly consider buying a modern ECU. Yes it is very easy to setup and tune, however it is lacking many of the features of a modern ECU. The pro plug in is something like 10 or 12 years old now? Can't remember exactly but it is very dated now. In that time the Elite was released and now we have the Nexus platform.  I would strongly consider not buying the ECU that is 3 generations old now (especially as it isn't a cheap ECU!). 
    • Im happy for it as long as it means reanult gets the boot 
    • Sorry I should have been more clear with the previous post.  The block is a sanding block - picture something like this https://motorguard.com/product/motor-guard-bgr161-bgr16-1-rigid-psa-sanding-block-2-5-8-x-16/ The guide coat is the paint It's two separate things I was talking about, there is no "block guide coat". 
    • Maybe more accurately, you aren't just dulling the existing paint, you are giving the new paint something to 'grab on to'. By sanding the existing paint, you're creating a bunch of pores for the new paint to hook on to.  You can lay new paint over existing paint without sanding it, might last a year or two then sad times. The paint will peal/flake off in huge chunks. By sanding it, the new paint is able to hang onto it and won't flake off.  Depends on the primer you are using. When you buy your paint, as the paint supplier what grit of sand paper to use before you lay down the primer.  Use whatever you like as a guide coat. Pick a colour that really stands out in contrast to the paint. So say your sanding/painting a currently white car, using a black guide coat would work well. You very lightly lay the black guide coat down, then as you sand the car with the large block, all the high spots and low spots will stand out as the black paint is sanded off (or isn't sanded off).  When you buy your paint, hit up your supplier for recommendations for what paint to use for a guide coat if you're unsure what would work well with your setup.
