Do I Need To Roll The Guards On My 32 Gtr For 18X10's

[boobeedoobee]

Hey just ordered a set of advan racing 18x10 +35 offset and will be putting a set of toyo r888 265/35's on will I need to roll the guards?

The offset seems a little high, might hit the struts?

My wheels are 18x10+20 with 265/35 tyres, it scraped so I rolled the guards.

you should have done your research on R32 GTR wheel offset prior to ordering

Yeah, you could trial fit a wheel to see if it clears without a tyre, and see how much clearance to the strut you'll have for a tyre. Might as well try both front and back. IIRC front will be the interesting end.

I'll post a pic when I get them see how they turned out looks like a little wait from Japan..

I'm with him.

[boobeedoobee]

Well I'm leaving it up to yokahama they will send the correct offset.. I hope

[GTSBoy]

Um....in your first post you told us you were getting +35 offset, and now you're leaving it up to them. Say what?

Yes I did.. but after some replies I rang the Tyre shop and they said they tell yokohama what the wheels are for and they will send the correct offset for that car in the size I want 18x10

There is no correct offset for 18 x 10 unless you do some guard work and what are you going to do if they are wrong?

[niZmO_Man]

Not much room in the front on my car. +20 is a good number . Guard rolling is required.

18x20 +15 on my r32, rolling the lip war required

[blue_vl_t]

I can't edit the post, 18 x 10 +15

[Duncan]

I was going to say.....no wonder guard rolling was required

But can anyone confirm 18x10 +20 does fit the front of a 32 without rolling?

For OP, if the wheel sits too far in you can always fix it with spacers...if it is too far out there is not much you can do without compromising your wheel alignment.

Tyre size 265/35/18:

Rears required rolling (approx. -1.5° camber).

Front, rounded sidewall design (Potenza TS02), -2° camber, just fitted without rolling. Changed tyres to a squarer sidewall (Falken FK452) and rolling was required.

sorry was that for 18x10+20? ie fronts and rears needed a roll.

If so, I don't get why people go 18x10+15 which are even worse??

[niZmO_Man]

18x10+20 (Nismo LMGT1).

[ls128]

I have 18x10+20 with 255/35/18 and no guard rolling was required. Front or Rear. Fronts scrubbed a teeny bit on the inner guard plastic..for one day.

Edit on a R32 GTR.

[niZmO_Man]

That's because the sidewall is at a 45° angle

I'm about to put 265/35/18's on my 18" +12's for my 32 GTR but I'm going to have a crack at rolling the guards a little 1st tonight so I'll post results eventually.
