If you track it, this is probably your best option anyway.

Try buckling or cracking one of those TE37s, it hurts.

Waiting to see fitment pictures of these on the 33.

+1 also wanting to see what they look like in the Varrstoen style 19x10.5 +12 is what im going for eventually...

mike, ideally you would need to roll your arches.

see here:

if you want to order volks, we are the cheapest around

er, i don't want to argue, but i compared your prices for te37's to nengun and they're a little bit cheaper...

I got them from the Varrstoen dealer for australia. If you need the number, let me know and I'll find it.

I ended up going for the 19x10.5 +12 in black.

I'll post some pics once I get them.

+1 for a few pics.

Also looking to get a setup like this :)

Did you know how much each one of the Varrstoen's weighed in at? just out of interest..

Fit perfect, with more room to push out?

I presume this, that way you can run the +12 without issue.

Best way I guess will to see the pics of the 10.5 +12.

Yeah its got a bit more room.. +12 shouldnt be an issue..

yeah they look pretty good, more interested on how they fit on an r33 gtr, i was scrolling through the uk gtr forum and found this, just wondering if anyone knows if this is absolutely correct and what would be a better fit on an r33 gtr without modifying gaurds 19 x 9.5 +12 or 19 x 10.5 +22?

this is what was said (car spoken about is an r33 gtr)

"9.5" +12 and 10.5 +22 are basically the same setup either way (is this true?)

I am running 19"x10.5 +22 Top Secret edition TE37 with 275/30/19..with HKS Performer Coils...no problem so far...

10.5 have to be fitted with no less than 275 width..9.5 can be use 265"

also what are the benifets of going 10.5 over 9.5 if there are any. cheers

You can run bigger tyres obviously, but most use 10.5 just for aesthetics just with a 265, really 265's are great on a 9.5. Not many people run 285's/295's which are what 10.5s are suitable for.

Personally I'd get 10.5 + 15 with 265 tyres with the provision to go bigger tyres if needed

Good stuff.

Black wheels on white car looks nice!

Yeah post pics.

I just got tyres for my TE37SL there 19x10.5 +22 with 265, chucked them on the car lastnight it looks like they might scrub against the black inner guard liners everytime i turn full lock i guess looks pretty close between the tyres and guard liner but not quiet sure yet got no motor atm so gotta wait and find out after a test drive >_<

General question to those who have fitted TE37 (or similar) in 18 x 11 +18mm on a R33 GTR. Is rolling the guards at the rear required or do they fit well? Do they scrub on the front at all?

Thanks

I run 19 x 10.5 +22 offset and 275 rubber with no issues.

I wouldnt go any lower than 275 on a 10.5 inch rim. The 275's are a bit stretched already.

Depends on the tyre chosen.

AD08s in 285 for example fill perfectly square edge on a 10.5

Where other 285s don't quite look "as wide" once on the actual rim.

Got 265 RS-Rs on a 10.5 at the moment, definately need at least 285 in the RS-R.

I reckon a 265 AD08 however wouldn't look as bad, so ye, depends laregly on the actual tyre.

    • Yeah I'm keeping an eye on it and might take it out as a once off if this doesn't fully charge. I did some research that said it's normal in equalisation charging. Voltage I thought was 20+ (faulty battery in multimeter) but now its on 15.9v, the max it should go to is 16.2v as per the manual. I'll provide an update once hopefully it's actually fully charged and in float mode. Waiting for it to go to 16.2v and not higher and see what happens. What I suspect has happened is that even though it's not an old battery, I did leave the car turned off for almost 4 weeks at one point then left it off for another 2 weeks which might have erroded the battery and is taking a long time to do this equlisation charge.
    • I wouldn't be using the seats a lot since it's on Historic rego and will not be driven a lot, however I also don't want to fork out 3k for something that won't last. Havent looked at BRZ seats, aiming for something of the same era I did speak to him on the phone once, and I do see your point haha. How many kms do you think you drove before they started wearing out? Just had a look at yours, certainly looking for a reclinable version. The Brides don't look too bad! I would still like to sit in one just to make sure it's what I'm after.    Thanks for the replies fellas. 
    • I bought my Bride reps from Crank Motorsport. He is, um, a trifle disorganised. I would have to look back at the e-mails to make sure I got it right, but I think he sent me normal fabric ones when I ordered the "Alcantara" ones. So he had to pay for shipping 3x and I'm sure that f**ked him off big time. And asking technical questions where nuanced English is required is a no go. It's simple English only. And....should I have bought the Alcantara ones? Well, as it turns out, they are great, feel great, etc, but the fabris wore through on the point of the waist bolster in <2 years. Must have caught a rip from a rivet on jeans or shorts, or something like that. So now I have to patch it somehow. A bit shit. My fault, ultimately, because it is Chinesium Faux Alcantara, not the real thing, and it turns ot that it has the tear resistance of a soggy tissue. But the seats and the reails are great. I probably should have gotten the R34 style ones, and now that they price is up in that ridiculous sort of number, I could have sold them for a profit!
    • Another recco is to just let it rest for a while and go back and reconnect later.
    • keep an extinguisher nearby? or even better, take it out of the car to charge?
