Hey guys, i was just wondeirng what tyres did a ecr33 come out with from factory. i have 225 50 16's on mine, and i think its the actual size, i have never found actual evidence pointing at this. the rims are the standard r33 16x6.5" rims.

I think there should be a specifications page on here somewhere :) for all the skylines from r30 - 31 up to the new skyline ...

just an idea tho

For 16 x 6.5 size rims (the standard Skyline/Fto's etc)

best with 205/55/16 (which i have on my stockies) fits perfectly straight sidewall.

it can also fit 225/50/16 BUT it tyre looks like its squashed in if you know what i mean, (they were the tyres that came with the car).

Car seems to handle better overall with the 205's compared to the 225's but thats my opinion might be different for others.

my 2c

thats really strange, cause im sure the tyre size plates on the car specify 225/50/16, will have to check again, speedo just seems to be out a little too much just from plain wear from the tyres ... wanting to know so when i organise my new rims what rolling diameter to get :)

      I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      Wonder what the cause is, but here's hoping it's nothing too serious.

      People don't always want builds that are overly expensive, or have engineering/registration/insurance issues and head aches that come with them Whilst big dollar builds, and complicated stuff is interesting to watch, there is only a tiny % of people who would actually use this information, or have the spare finances to drop on said builds, whereas the buy a cheap(ish) cool car, and make it better, with a average budget, that the average Joe or Jane could achieve will always be a winner in my opinion

      Bit of a thread revival, you mentioned wanting a bit more top end before, do you regret not going with the 1.01?

      It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
