if you want to spend abit of money then get some quality jap rims for sure,

if you have a limited budget then get a set of rotas, they look quite good and are very affordable.

but make sure you get rims that have a nice offset with +20 being the absoulute maximum, anything around +12,+15 is desireable

I have the R34 GTR wheels on now and love that look (and you don't need any spacers)

hes asking about a gtr, not a gtst. 34 gtr wheels are +30 so would definitely need spacers to get good fitment

stock wheels sit waaaay too far in the guards imo, plus if hes running coilovers, he might have issues clearing struts. i know i do with my standard wheels, need to use 5mm slip ons

plus gtr wheels are overpriced imo considering their width and offset. my advice if youre on a budget would be to go to http://www.option1ga...u/NewWheels.htm and buy some 18x10 +15 rotas for $1090

thats what i meant, the stock wheels sit way to far in for my liking, i wanted to use spacers to bring the wheels flush with the guard,

i think ill just go with a set of rota's. either 18 or 19's

hey guys this what i have decided to go with?

do you think silver as pictured or gunmetal with polished lip?

can anyone photoshop the centers gunmetal

Look like techs in 18x9.5 + 20

Had a set on my gtr before i put the gtc's on. Good bang for buck.

    • actually they are fog lights, parking lights are somewhere else that i cant get to from the engine bay because its too tight 😥
    • Yeah that is a good point, been a long time since I've ever had to look at this from the perspective of someone just starting out.  Suppose, sell the skyline, buy a BMW? Dunno lol. 
    • You could get TPS via ODB2 and is one of those 'useless' gauges that I have on Torque. When I tune, I pretty much just drive the car and look back on how far out the fuel map is in %, then trim the base map to suit after driving around for ~30 minutes or an hour. Hell, the last time I did the datalog for the fuel map I did a 30 minute track session with a laptop secured in the footwell  I had a Haltech before I went LS and I absolutely loved it too. The real kicker is that Haltech and other modern ECU's can actually *do* things with the signals from gauges, like say - Shut your engine down if oil pressure is too low, or oil temperature is too hot, or if AFR is too lean or literally any configurable thing. To me that's the real big advantage over a stock ECU. But it can also do all of that no matter what gauge or cluster setup that you happen to have I was really responding to this though. 99% of people are between where the OP is and where us tragics are. With a R34, those gauges are already there in the GTT. What are you gonna do with them? May as well make them work/be useful as in stock form they are pretty useless. (volt meter, oil temp only usable with OEM sensor, and a strange boost gauge that caps out at any boosted amount) So may as well swap them out for something functional/usable/tied into an ECU/provide relevant data, and there's plenty of space to do so.
    • @Kinkstaah The Haltech dashes have a few options, you can get them stand alone so they work with the factory ECU or if carby, no ECU lol. There is an OBD2 option and the regular version works over CAN with Link, Microtech, Motec, Syvecs and MaxxECU.  The road tuning example I was talking about is quite specific, so I use scatter plots quite a lot with the way I tune. In the example I was talking about, I might be trying to build a scatter plot for a very specific area of my fuel/timing map, being able to see my TPS in real time I've found to be super helpful with being able to drive the way is required to be in those areas of the maps.  I'll pop a video in for an example of the scatter plot software I use, it's really quite nice.  But in the end, I suppose you don't "need" it as you say, but I fkn looooooooooooove it and I use so many of its features all the time. I feel like I get a lot of value out of the dash and for me it is a huge upgrade over stock.  So many things in life you don't need, but we still throw our money at it anyway lol.
