Basically I'd like to know whether I could fit 275/60/15's under standard 33 gtst rear guards and if so, what wheels would be reccommended for this application?

If they fit, I was thinking of AU Falcon Utility rims widened if neccessary to fit the rubber.

Thanks in advance.

Yes...if u change ur profile of tyre...for example 255/40/17 to a 245/50/17 then you are in effect changing ur diff ratio............. cheaper than changing ur diff till u find the right ratio........

his are 265's, so i cant see why you cant go 10mm wider

different model, i know, but my skyline (c210) has 235/40/17's on and there is no way in hell that 245's would fit........maybe 265's on an r33 gts-t is as wide as u can go.......

      The Ls1 R33 Of Fury

      Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.

      Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
