thats what nisskid recomended with stock guards and low.. any chance sedans are different?

not sure if different on sedans but, I had scrubbing issues with 17x8 +30 with 235/45 tyres

Had to drop to 225/45's to reduce scrubbing

You are going another inch wider and +20, that will be an interesting fit.

The r33 GTR rims are 17x9 +30. Have a look through the r32 image thread for those rims on the r32. That will give you an idea if there is room for +20

[Mohsen]

yeah i saw that pic of the r32 sedan with 33r rims. looked pretty flush..

just wanna get everything right when i start modding..

now to wait till saturday

[funkymonkey]

got an invoice for my bodykit from VW US. Including shipping to oz it's $1500 cheaper than what VW AU wanted for the same thing.

Fucking muppets.

Mohsen, fuck you and your fucking pipedreams. Buy a car. Until then I ain't giving you any advice on nothing.

You already f**ked up, going to see a car and already having in your mind that your going to buy it is f**king stupid

kris is right there....

be smart man...

having said that... pat's a fag... those wheels will fit easy... just need to flare more\

why people are afraid of flaring guards on a ~10k car is beyond me... just man up ffs

you wanted aggressive fitment, Rekin runs pretty mild fitment.

the reason why his scrubbed is:

A: he was running a big tyre

B: his guards werent roll enough/right

C: his suspension was too soft

with 17x9 +20 u will be running a 215/45, hard suspension, then u will go at ur guards, just enough to make them fit (rolling and slight pulling in areas). when i talk about stock guards there i mean rolled guards as it's kind of a given if u want any sort of aggressive fitment. u wont need to flare to get a 17x9 +20 under.

17x9 +16 225/45

thaaaaaaaankyou...

next

[Basti]

might have to do something about my spring rates. or do i hope it'll tuck on launch? she squats atleast an inch

[blags]

Buy a car, Harden the f**k up, then buy 17x9 +10

getting aggressive fitment on soft suspension is farkin hard, doable, but hard. if u want the aggressive look, then harder springs are ur best bet. but realistically u wanna be going harder dampers as well.

[Basti]

im gonna see how far i get with what i have because i like the ride atm. but i could also do with less roll in corners. its the SK gb spec bilsteins/whiteline fyi.

im running 18x10 +19 all round, 235 and 245. lipped and slightly pulled. no scrubbing cos of how high it is but next thing on the list is low

[nisskid]

yeh the GB suspension is pretty much useless for going low.

[Basti]

circlip adjustment = pay some other dude to do it.

[nisskid]

the circlip adjustment is just the start of ur woes, the biggest problem is they use the standard hats, by having the top spring seat sitting down so low, ur spacing the suspension up, lifting ur car effectively.

u need to turn this:

awesome, thanks. now to work my ass off again and save for some decent rims/ suspension

[CrispyFries]

and the fines

[Mohsen]

and the fines

[jezza boii]

and the fines

Pwnt.

Ahhh. I need to flare my guards asap. My suspension is set pretty hard and my wheel still hits the guard when I lean into a corner.
