Why don't you look into other slightly more original wheels? Meisters and SSR SP1's are so common and boring now... but of course all the little fanboys will have a reply to this

More original wheels?

Perhaps you refer to TE37/LMGT4 or even stock GTR wheels.

They aren't common?

lol no, when I say original I mean try fitting a wheel that isn't one of the most popular for 34's (te37, te37sl, meisters, lmgt4, ce28, etc.)

What about some ssr type F's? I'm yet to see someone fit them to a 34gtr other than Auto Select

yeah, in all fairness, a lot of 34R's are running the same gear (aesthetically wise) cause it works. really really well. theyre certaintly on a tried and true winning formula.

I'm all for seeing something different but 9 times out of 10, it doesnt turn out too well

Personally i love the clean look you get from TE37s or LMGT4s on a 34R.. its been done heaps, but for a reason...

heres 2 pics of my car, one with some pretty unique wheels, then one thats a proven winner... couldnt be happier with them.

fair enough, just saying some ssr type f's would look good in black

Had them on my R34 GT-T a couple of years back - mint wheels!

LOL the reason I am looking for a change is the matte black wheels are hard to see and are a pain to keep clean, they have been done so much aswell.

I just wanted to see what pics were out there of these wheels on a white car and ss8_gohan dan has done a great job of showing this. I will weigh it up when the next sale comes up and see how the finances are, or in the mean time keep looking about at what other 19x105 +12 rims come available.

Oh and you get that carbon lip in a group buy...im in...its porn

I'd be interested in one of those lips if there's a group buy ! What size / profile are most running on 19 s by 10.5 I'm thinking 265/35 ??

    • Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.
    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.
