20inch Rims On My 33gts-t.

[MacR33]

Alrite guys. current tyres are 17/235/45. Rims im getting are 20/245/35. They came off a 32 GTR. I have a problem with the front steering arm... seems the tyre wont fit and will hit it.

List your suggestions how i should go about this.

You could make them fit by buying a lower sized wheel? Lol 20" is just TOO big in my opinion. Good luck fitting, I got no other suggestions.

NAwww they are sexy tho haha. anyone else got suggestions?? what if i flared the guards and got spacers??

if its hitting on the side the offset isnt right and you can fix it with spacers (make sure you get longer studs put in if you go this way), but then it will probably sit out the guards too much and you wont be able to lower it.

if its hitting at the top the tyre profile is obviously too high, 245/35 is huge for the front, shoudl be fine on the back, 225/30 is the way to go on the front and if the offsets are right you should be able to deck it hard.

The steering arm is sitting 1/4 over the tyre already... they are gunna be sitting way outside my guards.. lol. Im not lowering it. so not sure...

35 profile is way too big

I used spacers and a lower profile tyre.

Fixed....

take the suspension out and push the wheel up and see if it fouls on the UCA. the UCA goes up with the suspension, ud be surprised how much clearance u actually have.

[MacR33]

Stuff it.. gunna go with FAT 18's or 17's hahah thanks guys.

wise move.

[CRoNic...]

Someone actually had 20" chrome rims on a 32 GTR at some point?!

[4drftn]

iv got 20's on mine with 225/35's on the front and lowered, if you can stretch a tire it will be alright, as for top of the strut elbow joint the clearance wouldnt be any more than a 3mm gap, but doesnt cause any problems. just make sure if its lowered the suspension is tight otherwise when the wheels are turned under hard cornering or similair the tire will hit... flaring or wide body fenders will fix the problem but as said above it is a bit of stuffing around.

It's a Sydney thing...

lol, yeah i had a set of deep dish 17" volks when i first bought the car, chucked the 20's on to raise it off the ground so i could get out off the driveway... would like a set of nice dished racing rims though...
