Options On Wheel/tyre Combos 32Gtr

[geetea-are]

hello,

Im giving my self $2500 for xmas to buy tyres and wheels for my r32 gtr, I dont daily my gtr, and im slowly setting it up fully for track use, what wheel tyre combo do u think would best suit my needs,

i will most likely be looking at second hand tyres at least to fit in that bracket, i have been looking at some r34 gtr wheels with tyres on ebay but not to sure on how they look on 32

[GTSBoy]

17x9.5 or 10 (with suitable GTR offset) Enkei RPF1 from tirerack.com coupled with Federal 595 RSR would be reasonable. Should come quite close to that budget.

BBS LM 18 x 9 +20

R34 GTR 18 x 9 +30

R33 GTR 17 x 9 +30

All great options. GTR rims are forged and relatively inexpensive. Go 17s for cheaper rims, tyres, and prolly better handling but not if you think you're ever going for big brakes. Hence I sold my mint R33 GTR rims. Wish I didn't.

Maybe R33 for $1,000 and R34 for $1,800 then tyres. Not sure what change you get from $2k for good track tyres but others will point you right I'm sure.

RFP1s are a good option if your looking for something Jap, light wieght, and good quality at a good price.. i looked at some when looking for some new rims, along with the TE37s, but every Tom, Dick and prick has those rims.. so i shopped around and waited for something a bit different

Ended up buying a second hand set of LMGT4s with cheap rubber for a bit over $2500, and damn they look good if i dont say so myself

Nice!

Always wanted Nismo LMGT4's but car came with TE37's, so can't complain.

What sizing are your wheels?

[gtr jet]

I'd go with what GTSBOY said. Enkei RPF1's and some federals or kumho's or something similar. You could get the lot in 18's for under $2500 if you wanted.

[geetea-are]

Thanks for the replies, those nismo wheels look fantastic Gtr Joey, I plan to get 18s so that when I upgrade to some AP brakes I can get a larger disc

[GTR_JOEY]

Yea they are a fantastic wheel, light weight and massive clearance for brakes

They are 18 x 9.5 +15 offset, have some 265 yokie semi slicks going on them..

Got the wheels off another member in Melbourne

37s are still a good looking wheel, I was very torn between the 2.. Especially the SL's

[geetea-are]

there are imitation rota wheels like the LMGT4s, would this be a dangerous option to run

[GTR_JOEY]

Hmmm type Rota into google images, they are cheap for a reason...

And they buckle a lot easilier then the genuine stuff

[gtr jet]

I don't want to start a debate hear but I run Rota's and have no issue with them. Yes they are cheap and if I could afford LMGT4's I'd rather them but not on my budget.

Nice!

Do they sit flush under the guards or do they just sit in a bit?

[GTR_JOEY]

Nice!

they sit flush at the top, at the bottom they poke out a little bit as the guard rolls under the car... looks really good

will look even better with 265s on them
