Will these rims fit?

[Guest MRE]

Been offered a set of 18x8 18x9 with 235/45 on them.

No pic sorry.

How will they sit on an R33 GTSt Coupe?

Also as mine is stock height, will it look to high?

I am hoping to drop the car 1 inch later on.

Also I am with Suncorp and am over 30, anyone know how they treat this sort of wheel fitment?

the rim width is not the problem, it is the offset that is the more critical number.

If they are off a GTR with about 15-24 offset then forget it

If the number is around 30-35 then you might have a chance.

The GTR offset will just make the wheels stick out farther... give it a slightly wider track. I am putting R33 GTR wheels on my 240SX (aka S14 Silvia elsewhere) and they fit even with the R34 Brembo Conversion. A 5mm spacer is needed on the front wheels to prevent rubbing the calipers.

Forgot to add... GTR Wheels have a +5 offset I believe whereas the stock Silvia wheels have a +33 offset, it makes the car look rediculous with the wheels so far in the fenders.

MRE,

I had 18x8 and 18x9 (235/40 and 265/35) on my skyline and they were fine, but as the others said - check the offset!

Moving to a "wider" wheel, ex. +30 ---> +5 usually is fine in most cases, however its moving to a "closer" wheel +5 ---> +30 isnt good as it can cause the calipers to rub the wheels and other issues.
