best mags for R32 GTR

[Informer]

Right, click on this link Fuji Corporation and they've got Work Emotion CR Cai 18x9.5 with tires front and rear for R32 GT-R for 140,000 yen... Fuji Corporation have some pretty good deals on new wheels and tires.

 

Otherwise, if you really like my wheels (Desmond Regamaster) you could go for these:

158,000 yen with 265/35/18 tires at www.hokuei-inc.co.jp

Are these the same? :

LM's are made by Rays under commission from Nismo

I reckon they're a 5-spoke of the TE37's

They also have a different pattern around the studs (many holes, rather than either 4 or 5 on the TE-37).

Yes

R34 GTR Wheels

IMHO they look best on the R32 out of the 3 modern GTR's

[Morgs]

I like the IMPUL rims

It's actually the overall rolling diameter that needs to be the same front-back to keep ATTESSA happy.

Just thought I would emphasize this as I see so often people saying AWD needs same width rims.

The torque split controller works on the rolling dia. and even pulls in if one of your tyres is a bit low on pressure.

So on diff size rims just adjust the tyre aspect ratio and rolling dia. to suit!

IMHO rim apearance and desirability is totally subjective.

A big issue to me is how easy they are to keep clean!

ill secon r34 gtr wheels

yea baby

[GTR032]

WORK Termist S1C :wassup:

[justinfox]

Here's my car with BBS LM's in 17x9. I dream of 18inch wheels though for my car. Either WORK Meister S1's, R34 GT-R wheels or Nismo LMGT4's and I'd still settle for TE37's.

I might have to sell these rims as I just bought some Brembos for the front and it doesn't look like there's enough clearance for them So, great excuse to upgrade wheels I suppose!!! I'll need about $5k though to get what I really want! OUCH!!!

[Ronin 09]

Again, I'm so having your rims, Justin

I love R34 GTR rims, but for the money they still go for, a new set of Jap rims seems like a better option...

Anyone know what a set of R34s go for in Japan second hand?

[EVL R33]

Gotta agree with Morgs, the Impul Hoshino rims are very nice, mine have been polished so look different to the ones he posted. Nice deep dish on them too...

of course TE37's in Bronze look awesome too....

Hey thanks people.

Right now, I'm looking at this :

in black like this :

And I want 18".

I know the size has to be the same for all on a GTR, just wondering if they could also fit on a 300zx as well?

thanks again.

:aroused:

I'm too afraid to ask how much they cost

That's actually dark blue you linked. 18" TE37s in black/dark grey looks like this:

I should know: those are my wheels in that picture. Hopefully they will show up some day (currently still in Japan).

[justinfox]

LOL Ronin, and DAMN LW, they look amazing in that dark grey/back! Never seen them like that before. So you're going to put these on an R32 GT-R? A gunmetal grey one? I'd love to see the end result. 18x? what offset? I'd like to know.

[lwells]

justinfox: yeah, they look great, you just need the hubble telescope to see them from Australia Hoping I can get them here (without being pinched by some arsehole in the next month).

Its apparently a special order colour that Ray's offers (another one is Mercury Silver, but those a *freakin* expensive to get, even by TE-37 standards).

Yeah, they will be going on my (Gunmental) R32 GT-R. They are 18x9.5 (which apparently fits without rolling), and I think the offset is +35 off the top of my head but I can check if you like?

Should look a little something like this (though the wheels are a bit darker IMHO):

LW.

[Ronin 09]

They look awesome.

Lucien, I thought GTR offset was closer to +12 or +15, with a +35 for GTSts? eg. if you bolt on a R34GTR wheel to a GTSt they stick out too far?

Also, what are they costing you to send from Japan?

Cheers

[lwells]

Ronin: Your right. They are +12. Its been so long since I bought them I had forgotten

Edit: To cut a long story short, I payed to have them afixed to my GT-R, but the place didn't do that, so car is here (with original GT-R wheels on ) and wheels are still in Japan. Hoping to get them brought across in another vehicle, but waiting for the place to get their act together.

LW.

[Informer]

IWells,

Those rims look great!

My car is exactly the same as yours, I have the SSR mags at the moment, but will definitely go the RAY route.

I'm a bit confused with some of the RAY wheels, I believe the spokes on the TE37 is flat, but another version has them slanted inward. Which is which?

BTW, Hope you get your wheels soon and safely.

[lwells]

Informer: The original (and still the best IMHO) TE-37 has the slanted spokes. There are a couple of other versions: the flat spoked version is the TE-37M; there is a TE-37 gravel that is also quite flat; TE-37 Cup which has inverse slant, and TE-37 K which is sort of a dished version of the 37M.
