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.

Width?

It's surprisingly easy to do, just need a heat gun from Bunnings and that ebay roller from Adelaide.

I can tell you 18 x 9.5 + 22 with 265 35s rubbed on the front of my 32R. Rears were fine. Nitto crapola tyres. I bought them from a good guy (knew his stuff) who was running 18 x 10 +20 (not sure of tyre) and said they fit no worries on his 32R. There are so many variables. Tyres, ride height, camber, castor, and I reckon each car is slightly different too. +20 - +22 is the ideal offset and I would be very careful about letting someone else choose for you. 15 - 22 - 35 makes a heap of difference to fitment. Prepare for the disappoint...

And here is what 18 x 9 +20 looks like (on my unreal car). Running 265 35.

9.5" I rolled the rear passenger with ease last night so I'll do the drivers rear tonight.

I bought my +12's years ago before I knew much about fitment and now I wish I had have bought something that doesn't hang so far out of the guards.

What are people doing with their guard liner mounts once the fronts are rolled?

I've "lipped" (read bashed with a hammer) the passenger side front guard on my car, I think I left the screw off. Doesn't touch.

    • This isn't for lotsa powers, and time and effort isn't even a thing I'm concerned about The whole reason is "Just because fun", and "Just because fun" is what I do And whilst there are other kits, with better and more modern turbos (Rev9 use the same Kraken manifold I believe.....EDIT... nope, the Kraken is a cast jobbie, the REv9 uses welded up stainless, plus $8000 AUD before shipping, installation and tuning) Where else in Sydney can I do a drive in drive out with the after sales support that MX5 Mania give My Turbo 86 made around 200kwatw on a AVO turbo kit that Pulse fitted, and it was over 100kg heavier than the MX5, but it was a blast to drive around the streets, until I crashed it.....DOOH, so somewhere around 200 ish level and some whooshy noises and I'll be happy driving to work, the shops, or heading into the country with Jackie for Devonshire tea So, thanks Dose for your info, it sounds like a 0.64 will be fine for what I'm after👍 The only real racing I do nowadays is to the toilet

    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
