Lenso D1Rs On R33 Gts25T (-4 Offset)

[Bitsushiti]

Hi fellas,

I'm currently shopping around for new a set of 18" wheels for my '96 R33 S2 GTS25T. I've been leaning towards a set of Lenso D1Rs. I currently have +30mm front guards, my rear arches have been rolled professionally and they also appear to have been slightly pulled (by 5-10mm or so) in comparison to standard S2s. I'm currently running Tein SS adjustable coilovers and have a set of adjustable rear camber arms stored in the shed on standby.

While hunting around on google images for 33 GTS25Ts rolling on D1R's, one particular set of pics stood out from the rest. The owner of the car in the pics below (from NZ) claims he's running 18x9.0 with -4 offset all round.

Original thread that pics are from can be found here: http://www.skylineowners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=193124

I thought I'd run this past you guys first before making any decisions and parting with any cash...

Considering my 33 is currently a daily driver, do you think -4 offset would be ok? or would I be better off going for more conservative/positive offsets to avoid headaches?

Any thoughts/suggestions/advice etc would be highly valued & appreciated.

Cheers!

Does not look like -4mm offset.

Look for other photos of those wheels in 18x9 with more normal offsets (like +10, +15, +30) and compare with what you see on that car.

His tyres are fairly seriously stretched - you won't be wanting to emulate that?!

These are +30ish offsets:

Dont think the ones above are -4

Another consideration, do you plan to lower your car to that height? Low offsets look good on low cars, but practicality goes out the window. Running those offsets on a car which rides at a daily-friendly height isn't gonna look that good.
