Always heard bad things about spacers... for the life of your car, and obviously legality.

Please advise? :)

I'd run them on my low powered daily toyboata but not mah turbocharged beast :thumbsup:

I still haven't got my wheels (won't be for a while now!) but this is some great info. I'm leaning toward the TE37's too, exxy, but i think there one of the perfect wheels for the R34's. That or Lenso D1R's, much cheaper (maybe for a reason?) but look pretty sweet still.

I have ordered some Varrstoen 2.2.1 model rims for my 34GTT.. just waiting for them to come in.

I went with 18x9.5 +22 Front and 18x10.5 +22 Rear.

As my bodykit is quite wide, im thinking these 'should' fill the guards nicely. Anyone think I would need any guard rolling to make these fit in? Here is a couple pics.

I'm also struggling with this, im looking at some wheels (19x9 +38 and 19x9.5 +45) and not sure if this will fit my car (r34 gt-t). Any advice? its stock height atm but have coilovers going in soon. Wont have them set too low though so these wheels should be ok? Don't wanna roll my guards or anything like that. :)

I am running +38 rear lowered 2 inches and it is quite conservative. +45 will sit in quite a bit.

Hi-jacking of thread for my own personal gain...

Getting 18 x 9 +18s all round. Rolling required?

Cheers.

Pretty sure you will need rolling for this, particularly if you are lowered

18x9.75 +20 should fit rears fine with just a roll and stretched tyres. Fronts may stick out quite a bit with that width and offset though unless you want to run massive camber

I'm running 18x9+15 front and it already looks mexican spec lol

Just related to this, where can I get front guards (wheel arches) for my GTT? The car didnt come with it cos of the aftermarket front bumper. But I really want it to give it a cleaner look.

    • Yes, me too!!!!  I need to find a something that has all the abbreviations for what these cars have LOL
    • Dang.....  that is some good info.  Thank you.    Yes, I plan to do some troubleshooting before I actually just throw parts at it.  I was doing some investigating on parts, just to get a head start, if wiring and stuff all looked good.
    • No worries, now that I'm closer to 70yo than not, this sort of stuff will one day be 'lost knowledge'... and even now, I wonder just how many folks out there have the Kent-Moore J34291 shim setting tool set to set end clearances rebuilding these...but right the now, there's less and less hard parts available, and you'll be headed to the wreckers to buy a donor box if it's worn out...(or pay a shop to do exactly the same thing). In a way, it's fortunate the 4-speed was so popular, because there's still heaps of consumables (banners kits, bearings & plates etc) around ~ these early 5-speeds weren't exactly that prevalent, so there's not quite as much about for them... but it's a race between perceived demand for these parts, versus how much they fetch at the shredder for recycling purposes...
    • I hope one day I can do it like you. Your engine looks great.
    • If there's nothing else I can do I'll probably do something like that Someone on the internet said that ca20s and ca18 engine blocks are the same and that you can use a ca20 engine block and put ca18det parts to make a ca20det Do you think this is possible or will it damage the engine?
