Reducing Overall Wheel Offset

[GTR_JOEY]

May seem like a silly question but after having a good look at the rear of my 32 GTR, ive come to the conclusion that I don't like how far the wheels stick out.

Im trying to figure out the best way of bringing them in

my options are

change my wheel offset, which means I need to sell my LMGT4s and find another set of them with lesser offset.. would have to be LMs again because I really like the style of the wheel

Or

swap my R33 GTR subframe back to a 32 as a 33 one is wider

any other ideas or is that about it?

cheers

My patented unspacers would do the job......

.....you know, if they existed.

[GTR_JOEY]

That Helps heaps

There is no other 'real' options. You could pull the guards to give you desired effect of having a higher offset wheel but you will crack the paint and risk pinching the guard if the wheel ever hits it.

Is the hub to hub distance larger on the R33 subframe?

[GTR_JOEY]

Yea it's wider man, wanna swap?

I was thinking about that Josh but I still think it will look no good.. My offset on my wheels are too aggressive

[Hadouken]

The way I see it is just like you said,

Sell wheels

Swap subframe

Pull guards

shave a few mm off the wheels to reduce offset

[GTR_JOEY]

Yea shaving the wheels is the other option, but they re nismos so I don't wanna do that

It's probably going to have to be swap the subframe.. I think it's around 10mm wider either side

[Hadouken]

Wow that's a fair bit!

[niZmO_Man]

Yea it's wider man, wanna swap?

Hahaha no thanks, 18x10+20 with 275/35 tyres is enough of a struggle.

Swap the sub frame over, 10mm either side should do it... or run mini flares?

[okooko]

what LMGT's specs are you running?

I'm assuming 9.5+12s?

Flares. Get the fck outta here. They have no place on a nice GTR.

Lol.. Not mini flares!!

Yea mate that's it

I'd say swap your sub frame back. Judging by how my 9.5 +12's fit.....they are perfect for the car. Unless you feel like a new look with different wheels.

All those options sound like an awful lot of work..

Can you post a photo of how the wheels sit now?

yes, but you have a chance to do all bushes at your own leisure with a new subframe.

Adjustable lca/uca etc

Adjustable lca/uca etc

+1 camber time. Dont stop till its under the guards

Rob260 is doing a group buy on Ikeya Formula stuff atm on aus300zx.com. He is a member on here also, might be worth asking for prices on R33 arms?

[GTR_JOEY]

Sorry man, don't have any pics, well I did but they were on my old phone

I ended up removing the spacer on my rear brake kit and modifying the kit to work

Looks alot better now
