Wheel size/offset for R33 GTS-T

Hi guys,

I know there are a lot of posts about offsets and wheel sizes, but I'm new here and haven't found anything about R33's with the following dimensions:

- 18 x 9 +20 offset (front)

- 18 x 10 +20 offset (rear)

My car is currently sitting on stock suspension. Just wondering if I will need to roll/pump up the guards to fit them (I'm mostly concerned with the rears).

Thanks in advance everyone!

I run 18x9.5 +20 on all 4 corners, front and rear have rolled fenders with no pull at all and I consider this the perfect agressive fitment for a ecr33. 18x10 on the rear will give you not even a 1/4 inch more poke inside and outside of your wheel so I dont see it being a issue! I do have aftermarket suspension but it is not very low.

Don't forget tyres and camber guys...plays a big part in whether the guards will get rubbed going over bumps or when turning the wheel full lock.

I run 18x9+32 all four and had to roll guards. With 235/40 front, 265/35 rear, zero camber, lowered about 10cm off the ground, rolled guards...only scraped the guard liners on full lock so I took them out. With 245/40 all round now I get no scrapes anywhere. So I would say anything equally or more aggressive than I'm running, yes roll guards. Whether you need to flare or not will depend on camber and tyres and ride height and soft/firm suspension.

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!
    • This is going to be a mid week evening cruise. Come along and join us for a drive out to Palm Beach. This is a change of event plans after talking to some of the older members of the club. SAU NSW is planning on hitting Old Pac again shortly, stay tuned for details. When: Thursday 26th of June Time: 7:30pm meet/8:00pm departure/10:00pm finish Meet: Spit West Car Park / Spit Rd Mosman NSW 2088 Destination: Palm Beach Public Parking / 16 Ocean Rd Palm Beach NSW 2108 Up to date information as always can be found on the events page of our website, the link for this event is https://www.saunsw.com.au/events/palm-beach-cruise There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave. Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
    • Good time for a carbon roof  
    • Not in any way aroused by any of those, except maybe the big AMGs. And that would break my never a Euro, ever, rule.
