i got some 18X10(255/45/R18) veilside rims that i really love but as you can see in the picture i got a problem

my car is a r33 non turbo, the wheels are close to the left that i wont be able to get side skirts plus it touches the suspension. my mate said to get the guards rolled out and to get wheel spacers plus nismo long lug nuts. is that correct? what i need is answers or pictures from people that had gone through this path or know something about ites from 25

i wouldnt mind my car looking like the last pic, but to me the rear fenders looks to over done. iam looking for a sorta stocky look.

if any one knows a website or purchase rear fenders for r33s pls reply.

or if intersted in the wheels i could sell them, they are 4 and 5 stud which i rare to come by with Veilside and got sum expensive tyres on them. all i am asking is $3200 for all 4 wif tyres. 2 of them are 18x11 (285/30/r18) and the other 2 18x10(255/45/r18). the guy i bought it from said you can fit tyres from 235 - 315 depending on your look . any questions or wanting more pics of the rims email at [email protected]

Hey mate,

It will require a few things.. firstly are the rims or tyres hitting the suspension ??

yes flaring the guards might be required, on a r33 this looks great because its a rounded car! you can get flares like above but will require respraying if you want a smooth finish like the above.

Now the cheapest and safest way to achive those rims in your guards and not hit is to buy some new tyres .. stretch them onto the rim and done it will fit :O

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
