Nismo sizes are 8.5+30 and 9.5+35 I think?

My LMGT4's are 18x8.5" +30 and 18x9.5" +38 - I had thought that was the recommended size from Nismo for R34 GTT.

Fits pretty well, some slight scrub at full lock going up a driveway or something.

Yeah mate dont get 9.5 15 they wont fit at all unless you have wider guards, try 18x9 +30 front and 18x9.5 +35 rear will fit perfect if you cars lowered on coils maybe roll gaurds but i dont think youd need to. Check my sig for what im running with unmodified guards :) good luck

Im hunting for abit of advice, have my r34 gtt and it needs some new shoes. Im looking at a set of jdm concepts and works joint venture the gt5's. The sizes are 18x9 +30 for the front and 18x10 +38 for the rears. Ideally 245's on the front and 265's on the rear. Ive got what looks like stock height if anything maybe slightly lowered. Based on experiences what problems could i encounter and any ways of getting around them?

Have i have the wheels on there way I have Justable coilovers or I just change that with getting both fronts and rears rolled or how would I got with getting wider guards

I have exactly those profiles wheels and tyres and fits 100% perfect, no scrub or lock rub and im on ajusties slightly raised to just below stock high.

I dont think rolling guards will help as they will poke alot my old 9.5 +22 poked about 2cm or so. Um maybe have a look at viva garage for some fibre glass wide fenders or more expensive fit a set of gtr fenders. Good luck mate

I test fitted one side, currently there is 265/40/18 tires on all of them (which will be replaced)

The fronts I plan to run 235/40/18, rears 265/35/18

Chime in if you have any tire suggestions or fitment suggestions....my front and rears are already rolled.

hey guys, Just looking at getting a new set for my 34, currently have 19x8 +35 with 235's all round.

I wanted to get some koya drift teks but they only have 18x9.5 available at the moment, a couple of tyre shops have said they'll make them fit no worries, but I'm not to keen on having huge aggressive fitment on the front, I just want them sitting flush.

So Im leaning towards getting concave concept CC03's in 18x9 +20 with 235's all round, would I need guard work? not a big deal if I do, the shop will roll them for free anyways. what do you think?

with the 9.5 youl want around a +32/35ish off set for them to sit flush but then you may run into issues with clearing suspension arms on the front.. and most likely be limited to a max of a 235 tyre on the front... and possble scrub if your cars lowered to much.

on the other hand. 18x9 +30 is the sweet spot for all unmodified guard work on gtt, that being said +20 would sit 1cm further out the arch so more aggressive.. and id run at less a 245 Tyre on a 9" wheel unless you want a tiny bit of stretch. but if you do go with the +20 offset stretch em tyres or your gonna have a scrubing time :)

haha cheers, yeah Im thinking the 9's in +20 would sit heaps nice with a bit of stretch. the only other option is a set of dtm p5 wheels (a replica of the drift teks which are a replica) I found in 18x9 +25 so thats kind of a happy medium I guess?

no its just a toss up of what ooks better, that drift tek sort of style or concave concepts. any opinions?

What's the go with stretch? I've heard heaps of opinions for and against

Name one for? And you will likely break the internet...

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
