Hello, so the title pretty much explains it. I know there is a lot of information about fitment on the net, but all I found was different opinions and no correct info as some say it will fit without problems, others say that fender rolling will be required.

I own a r33 gtst spec 1. No particular mods apart from final konnexion coilovers. I got a really good deal on some wheels which are 18x9.75 et20 all round. Was wondering would they fit on my r33 and what would be the widest tyres that would fit on them without fender rolling?

Thank you for your time!

I'm erring on the side of 'no' in terms of "will they fit without modification".

They are much closer to 'you need flares/gtr guards' to fit these comfortably spec if you want a huge meaty 275+ tyre on them etc. They probably could work if you went aggressive with very stretched tyres, and a lot of camber and rolled all the lips on the guards. It will compromise the car a fair bit in terms of actual grip.

I have a 34, but wheel fitment with regards to 33 and 34's is generally similar.

To be 100% sure, find out the difference between your current rims with a site like www.willtheyfit.com by putting the specs in, and go measure :D

 

Don't bother, try to get 9.5s if you can, up to a max of +20 and it will be "about right" but verging on too agggressive. You will probably need a slight fender roll with that. The worst thing is, you'll never be able to max out the tire sizes for your rim - this is the situation I'm in with rear 10j +20. I can get a 265 width (narrow-design) tire on there - forget CR-1s or AD08s - but this width would fit better on a 9.5.

9.75 is an odd size. If they're XXRs, just save your money.
