I would say "just fit" lol Im sure you would encounter some scrubbing. When i had my 10.5 wide on the back over 1##km/ph the rear would be pressed down on the tyre causing it to wear pretty bad.

Looks awesome though!

Where did you get the rear guards worked on?

at top one for the back.and as for the front when i get them done ill let you know who i used.

I wouldnt say perfect considering the wheels stick out an inch and the guards have to be lipped and rolled.

Here a few quick pics i took of my 10' wide 18s on the rear:

Here is the view straight up and down

And off to the side a bit.

Just finished fitment of my Volk GTCS

Tyres - 235/35/19 up front, 265/35(its 5cm thick 35 profile my ass!)/19

Rims:

Front - 19x8.5 JJ Offset +27

Rear - 19x9.5 JJ Offset +34

Right on the guards

Fitted Advan V103 Sport - wow they are great tyres, silicone is yet to wear away and they stick like well you know. Rears are Pilot sport, They are so loud I can hear them over the exhaust. Took them awhile to heat up too and until they did I had shit all grip on boost. BTW the pilot sport 265 was as wide as the 235 Yokohama!

No scrubbing car sits at recommended 301cm wheel to arch hight (cant remember exact recommendation for my car)

มีของดีอย่างนี้ต้องโชว์ครับ

ขอดูรูปหน่อยดิ

Alright, Not the best photo was in that sort of night sort of day period where no camera will surfice. Anyway its attached when I get some lower profile tyres I will put it on the floor.

Hope you like :)

The question of what wheel size fits what Skyline comes up so often I though this might be a good place to post your own wheel dimensions.

Just copy and fill in the table;

Skyline model = GTR R34 V spec 2000 model

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = 10"

Wheel offset = +12

Tyre size = 285 - 35 - 18

Modifications to fit = nil fits perfect. Cant go wider width the wheel will not have a full turning circle.

im suprised theres no scrubbing even with 265 on the rears but then the high offset would help it not scrub i guess.

these 19's were the wrong offset...rubbin on my brake calipers on the front..got the right offset...just clears the calipers enough to spin the rims

it's a sign from the big man telling u to get rid of them :(

but seriously, offset doesnt define brake clearance, the disk height does that.

i pose a bit of a question to you all...

Would R32 GTR rims (16 x 8, +30 offset) fit on an R32 GTS-t, without hitting on anything (assuming stock calipers/rotors) and without rubbing on the guards?

I am running r32 gtr wheels and 225's on my r32 gtst and haven't had any problems with rubbing at all but my car is still at standerd height

I would say near perfect! In my opinion if you don't have to at least roll the guards you have chosen the wrong wheels. The opinion above is why the Australian modified car scene fails as a whole, most people don't have a clue about good wheel fitment, though that is slowly changing!

    • Latest round of updates on the car. I purchased and installed a SWS clutch slipper to help with 60ft times and got some second-hand good condition 275/40R17 Hoosier DR2 radials. Test and tune in November showed the tyres were an upgrade over my over 15 year old mickey Thompson's and I got a 1.8 second 60ft and pb et of 11.71 but even then, that run wasn't great due to rain and driver error (the event got called off 10 minutes later fast forward to the weekend just gone 25th of Jan and there was finally a break in the weather to let racing happen. The first run the track was slippery and only managed a 12.1@129 Second run the track was better and got a new pb et and mph: 11.54@131   Lith and I then worked out that I installed the previously mentioned clutch slipper incorrectly and its never been working, and I had just been dumping the clutch the entire time, we also noticed it was on street boost and not race boost. So I lined up for a third run with the car turned up in the first two gears, but the passengers side axle objected to clutch dumps and left the chat which stopped my weekend.   so there will be another attempt in the future once I replace the tyres as they rubbed and are stuffed now. but a low 11 should be on the cards.
    • Ceramic coating and heat shielding, you mean?
    • Turbos don't require pulling the motor apart so that's "easier". I would recommend the Nismo R3 turbos instead if you want to do stock twin turbo. It doesn't make as much power as the 2530s but it's only like ~50 whp off the mark and should have better response (ball bearing CHRA, slightly smaller turbo). A local that went with a Garrett G30 and 6boost manifold recently nearly burned his car to the ground after the hood insulator started melting and and burning so if you go single turbo I recommend doing a lot of research and validation work to make sure you don't do the same.
    • New rear lights, filler panel sprayed, cleaned and back together    before, during, after shots 😍
    • 100% is gyprock, I agree. Slip of the keyboard. Haha! I left my indicator bulbs out to save a bit of weight.
