lol. Had 235s on my stockie 33GTR wheels (9"). Minimal stretch, if any.

There will be a bit of stretch for that size for sure but I suppose joey's argument for running 235 is to be more practical/cost saving as its down to the dollars from what he's suggesting.

Personally I'm not a big fan of stretched tyres but I know of people who loves the look of them (particularly people who loves dishes).

Never seen 235s on 9s but the 285s I have on my 9.5s fits perfectly with no stretching at all. However, I have another friend with 265s on 10s and they look a bit stretched. I was told 265s would be the perfect size for 9s though.

you're running 285s! jesus brandon, im impressed :)

for 9" i go 215 :D

i run 235's to fit under the guards... the $$$ is a bonus tho... its just that the price difference between a 235 and a 245 is less than the performance difference

Yea. Thats a good enough reason I suppose. If you can justify it and dont mind the look + its legal, I dont see why you shouldnt do it.

I thought you knew? They came with the rims I bought which was a bargain imo.

i do like the look and 245's on a 9.5" is the minimum legal size :)

the 235's are technically illegal, but still within manufactures specs for some tyres

    • Hi guys, planning to get 18x9 +25 in fronts and 18x10 +25 in rears been reading the whole thread and cant really find anything   Anyone know if these will fit a r34 gtt with no scrubbing or guard work needed?
    • They usually get made by hand as part of any such swap.
    • Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?
    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
    • No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
