I reckon the Rays te37 with the red lip (2nd pic)

I agree, cant go wrong with te37s.

My favorite are jdm drift spec rims, Super advans 17's with a offset no more then +20 by 10s

People will think your car is a track car, plus they are hot.

What ever you go with, remember offsets is what makes the rims look hot.

mate its your car pick what you want dont post every possible wheel here as its unlikely you will get a 100% approval.

work out the overall style you want from your car and then what is important to you in the wheel is it looks or light weight performance focus?

if you havent tried hit up

j-imports.com

importmonster.com.au

and the for sale forums here and ns.com lots and lots of rims up for grabs..

Im a newbie at offsets, been reading guides etc but still clueless :P

i want the centre of the rim to go inwards but dont know what offset that is.

I have stock suspension , i was wondering what offset can i fit up to without any mods?

My current stockies are 17" 40 offset.

I want 18" as my new sets.

Sorry for being a newbie, dont want to be flamed at :cool:

you need to get yourself into the offset thread.

in shot it will fit easily im pretty sure r34 guards are quite generous you can get away with a 18x10 +20 or so without much effort at all perhaps a roll.

what you have posted above would be seen as a bit conservative but depends how agressive you want to be.

for example my r33 is running 18x9.5 +15 front (20mm wider front guards) sits flush and a 18x10 +20 rear

but other things count as well such as stretching tyres etc.

are you talking about concave rims? or deep dish rims there is a difference.

this is deep dish

this is concave (spokes going back in)

Rears will fit fine, don't know for sure but I think 9.5 +38 on the front will sit outside the guards

Thanks for the help mate! one last size questions! I PROMISE :rant:

What about this?

18x8.5 +32

18x9.5 +12

Since the front are less wider, i guess it wont sit outside the front guard

but what about the offsets? will both Offsets clear my calipers?

The wheels im looking at are Work Emotions CR Kai's and the wheels are brand new, therefore dont think i will be able to trail fit it before i buy it.

Plus i want to find out before rather than just taking the sellers word for it.

Cheers mate.

9.5 +12 will need a rolled guard with stretched tyres. either that or it will just poke out and fender will need a flare.. its a kinda hardcore offset, more suited to a GTR.

the sizing im going to get with new wheels is as follows if its any help.

18x8.5 +30

18x9.5 +35 or +30 for staggered look, depending on what type of wheels i get.

You should be able to trial fit them if u take the car there.. just dont tigthen the wheel nuts so they dont get scratched.. jack it up remove your wheel and slide the new one on and check for guard clearance..

      This could be sold and shipped to the US for many gold pieces. RMS has no say in that. Ask various Western Sydney inhabitants how it works.

      Ha ha ha, mine loves to spend, all on the dogs (they're our kids, and her spending would likely rival that of some people raising children!) the only benefit is, her spending is tax deductible as she runs a business in the dog industry 😛 The above all means she can spend race car budget quicker than I can. 😛 That and a lot of the things I want are very expensive, and I can be a bit "you want how much for that?!" And at other times overly impulsive. Or I start the w days of research, get to day 1.5 and get really annoyed that no one will advertise actual specifics and it's just marketting BS and I go "well, now I don't want anything to do with that now!" Also I hate paying lots of money for something I can make from $50 in materials. Then I get the shits halfway through making things and wonder why others who just buy parts have more fun... 😛

      Their 240Z with the RB26 would be a real nice thing to have in a garage to come out for an occasional weekend cruise It's such a cool thing in so many ways Sadly, we have a blue 240Z shell that I walk past every day, just sitting outside a shed at work, it has been slowly disintegrating and falling apart into the ground for the last few years, the owner cannot be found, and I am unable to "claim it" I've been told by work and the RMS, the rust in the body is excessive though, and it has had most of the salvageable stuff, like panels, trim and switch gear stripped off it over the last year or two, work keeps threatening to put it in one of our metal scrap bins, I wish they did though, as it makes Mark sad walking past it

      Good tips, I like it! 😂😂 My wife is a LOT more frugal than me so it's only me we need to worry about! A splurge to her is buying 2 pairs of socks in one visit at Kmart!

      Haha, the appropriate response to the question "Is this new?" is "I've had this for a while.". With the unspoken small print that a while may be the time since this morning or five years ago   And to be fair I learned that from the best, i.e. my wife. Because it goes both ways.
