justinfox... you don't have to have all the wheels the same size, as long as the rolling radius is the same. Alot of people have experienced problems with their ATESSA by not having the the wheels the same (rolling radius).

you can have rims that are smaller, and tyre walls that are larger, etc. But this is a REAL hassle to arrange, so it's best if you keep tham all the same size.

For your interest here is something I found a while back...

http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

This lets you try different combinations of tyres / rims and gives you the rolling radius, when compared to stock rims it will tell you if your speedo is going to be out and by what percentage.

This also shows that no 2 combinations are identicle, unless you want to put something like 185/60/15 on your GTR (which won't even fit around the brakes!).

After this, as zRoyz states, you then have to take the cars setup and balance into consideration, and this is where the offsets are important.

There's more to fitting new rims than 'these ones are nice'.

Good luck with the sale zRoyz, these rims look great. A mate of mine DJR33 put a set on his car a few months back!

    • Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.
    • Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.
    • The brakes are all stock bar some DBA slotted discs and the EBC pads and braided lines. The car has brake ducts as standard but they're kinda pointed in the general direction of the brakes rather than really getting at the heat source. I guess I should hit it with an infra red thermometer after a session and see what they're at.  100%! Its just a curiosity more than anything. As I said, high temp brake fluid was such a track day rage back in the day. From people I speak to at the track and threads on here everybody has their own take on it but I'm not gonna scoff at spending a few more bucks.    OH, a quick side question - would you use brake fluid from an opened container even if the lid has been on? Eg, if you have a bottle that you opened last time you flushed, it's been tightly closed, is it still good? 
    • Nice, is there a post with the new 4" dyno curve?
