Hey guys

i found a set of te37 18x9.5+12 and i want to put 235f ,265r and im wondering if they can fit?

I dont mind rolling the guards.i thought a lower offset makes the te37 look aggressive.

all help is appreciated.Simo

hay dude.

i have 18x9.5 te37s front and rear on my r34 +15 and i have rolled, flared and pumped guards

i run 245s f and 265s r

fronts still stick out a tiny bit, rears r sweet. (front guards are pulled same a gtr +25 mm and the rears are pulled more than that coz i used to have deep dish 19'sz)

i have 18x9.5 +12 on my gtt

needed camber arms and that was about it... i rolled the guards just beacuse i could didnt really need doing.

you will be alright

i didnt use camber arms coz i want my wheels to sit flat on the floor for better grip

You will need to roll the front and rear guards, this shouldnt be more then $50 a corner by a shop.

You will need to lower the car to fit them, and it would be best to get camber adjustment for the back at least.

But yes do it the jap way, buy the rims, then make the car fit around them, they will look porn.

doesnt having heaps of negative camber on the front just make it steer better not grip better??

google: understeer happens when the front tires have less traction during a cornering situation than the rear tires, thus causing the front end of the vehicle to have less mechanical grip and become unable to follow the trajectory in the corner.

If the tire had zero camber, the inside edge of the contact patch would begin to lift off of the ground, thereby reducing the area of the contact patch. By applying negative camber, this effect is reduced, thereby maximizing the contact patch area.

more neg camber on front = maximizing the contact patch area during a corner

grip better = steer better

heys guys what if i go 18x9front 235 18x9.5 rear 265 but still te37s

but what offset would i need?

my car allready has 9.5 255,40 rear and 9 225,40 front.i dont know wat offset but rear is deepdish

265s on the rear will be pushing it if you don't wanna pull the guards too. I'd personally go 235s all round, or step it up to a 10.5 on the rear for the 265 (what I'm looking at for mine now).

10.5's on the rear of a gt-t? How are you going to make that fit? offset?

just to give yous more info on my car so yous can help me out more

it has bc raceing coilovers it has 17x9 225 front and 17x9.5 255 rear.i dont mind lipping the guards or pulling them out.so is 18x9.5+12 235front 265 rear 0r should i look for 18x9 235 front and 18x9.5 265 rear and larger offset 15 and up.

my rims now.

I run both a 17 x 9 +20 (track) and 18 x 9.5 +15 (street) 235/40 all round, I lipped my front guards and rolled my rears to add an extra 10mm of clearance.

But I run my car a bit lower than most, so I have natural camber both front 2 deg and rear 1.5ish , but plan on correcting it with arms soon.

    • Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

    • Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.
    • Hope the cans went down well at least 
    • 255 can't go wrong with the price.
    • When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
