Guys, i need some help.. I have found some wheels i love & wanna get for my r32.. but the offset is +45!! And from what i thought, around +35 is what everyone seems to use.. Can anyone tell me if these wheels will fit on my car n if they will look like shit,scrub etc.

Thanks...

Steve.

Thanks man, but couldnt find anyone with same offset as the wheels i want are.. but ill post in there n see if anyone can help me..

you stil want low offset mate, the higher the offset the worse it will look basically unless you like the sunken look.

+22 is probaly about right.. agree with blags id be going for 17s/18s but if u like 19s thats your call you just cant get as close to the ground

well i went 2 have a look at the wheels today (they are a private sale) not from a shop.. fronts are +42 and rears are a +45 .. so i think im up shit creek.. Unless i can run spacers? Has anyone used these n how much of a difference can/will it make.. n yeah im aware they are illegal.. n yeah im aware 17s,18s would be more suitable/practical.. but i like the wheels & my car handles fine with the 19s ive had on the car all the time ive owned it.

Any more help would be great, thanks guys. :thumbsup:

avoid spacers if u can i had em on the front not a fan couldnt get a good balance no matter what and i personally wouldnt want em on the rear but heaps of ppl use hubcentrics without a problem, the thing is you can just buy the right wheels first off save ya the hassle.

spacers are illegal.

yeh i just didnt want him to not know they are illegal if he is keen on then.

by the look of the rim its a knock off gtc style id say get save up for the real thing the ladeeez will be far more likely to slip and land on ya kn0b if ya get the real deal.. its like getting PRADA or PRODA .. just aint right.

whats the real ones? i cant find that style of wheel anywhere.. thats y i want those wheels so bad.. N i did a bit more investigating.. N found this dude selling his wheels ( hes on here im pretty sure too..)

Front - 19*8 Offset 35

Rear - 19*9 Offset 44

but he said he didnt use any spacers? so im just curious to know y the wheels sit so flush with the car?

pics are.. HERE

Can anyone tell me how that works? Even though its a high offset.. i dont understand.. :P sorry guys haha.

    • Apologies, while id like to put the MAF as close to the TB and relocate the recirc, this may be too much work. Will most likely end up just putting it on the original AFM spot ( onto/next to the airbox ).  Was going through nistune, found a pretty nifty doc on this. Nistune MAF Notes. Also, i was looking through the bay, and there seems to be a tube/line connected from the A/C to the intercooler piping ( Between the smic and the recirc), what does this do as the crossover fmic piping doesnt have any connection? plumbing? not sure what you call it but the nipple thing ahah.  Also, been reading up more about crossover fmic in regards to the legality of having the hole drilled for the piping, this would most likely need to be engineered right?
    • My advice is if you need a big build done do it in Japan. The yen rate is so favorable and there are shops that can be genuinely trusted and not micromanaged/carefully monitored every step of the way. Garage Yoshida is obviously my preferred option but they're so busy these days and all interaction with new customers has to be mediated through BBL/Toprank now. 
    • I haven't....but a poorly made one would terrify me. Surely a good second hand one is the go, as they don't work hard and no-one wants to keep one after they are finished with it A big consideration would be the weight of the shell you are putting on it....is it a fully dressed chassis or just the body
    • Not stock. All remade. Mostly looks stock because the pipes run to and from the standard holes in the inner guard to get to the return flow FMIC. I'm not sure which question you're trying to ask, because it seems like "stock position" vs "stock position".
    • Hey, it's a GT-R, it's just as significant a moment as mine😁 It's not ideal when things are uncertain; I'm the type of person that always has a set plan for things in life so being unsure of this plan puts me in a weird place mentally.
