R32 Wheels

R32's are available with the following factory wheels:

Size Offset OEM tyres

14x5 1/2 JJ 40 mm offset

165SR14

185/70R14

15x6 JJ 40 mm offset

185/70R14

205/60R15

16x6 1/2 JJ 40 mm offset 205/55R16

16x8 JJ 30 mm offset 225/50R16

The 16x8 JJ are GT-R wheels are very hard to come by. The size of the wheel is stamped into

the rim for identification purposes.

Upgrades to tyre size can be done with differing results. Some members have reported good

results with 225 sized tyres on the GTS-t 16x6 rim, others have had excessive tire-wall

flexing.
