Hey guys,

Have narrowed my choice of rims down to two (for my 32 gts-t):

1. F: 18x8.5 +22

R: 18x9.5 +22

2. F: 18x9.5 +18

R: 18x9.5 +18

I realize the second option is quite aggressive, especially for a gts-t front, and would probably require lot of camber and stretching.

Thoughts? Opinions? All welcome...Thanks

Brake clearance, depend on rim design - what rims are you getting btw?

You'd need to run 245/40 tyres and roll the guards for sure. And maybe dial some camber for good measure.

I'd go for 2nd option if you don't mind doing the work required to fit. It'll look tough kinda reminded me of Abu's old R32 GTST.

1st option seems to be safe.

Really, it's up to you as in how prepared you are to make it fit.

Brake clearance will depend on the wheels design mostly, not offset.

They will hang out of your guards roughly 10-15mm so yes depending on how low you go you'll wanna roll and maybe flare your guards depeding on tyre width.

Would a 19x10.5 + 12 all round, be suited better ?

What do you guys recommend ?

*edit* also what tyres all round ? 245, 255 ?

Edited by KISIN

TE37 have plenty of room to fit big brakes especially 19" diameter rims.

19x10.5 +12 is better suited for 33 GT-R.

As for tyres, 265/35 or 275/35, 33 GTR have plenty of room under the guards, maybe a minor guard lipping would suffice but once again it's up to tyres style.

+12 is perfect, I've got 10" +12s, sits maybe 2mm out of the guards.

Will have a chunky-ish kit put on so im worried they will look sunk in the guards...but i think it should be spot on then with 19x10.5 +12 and 275's....

thanks guys!!

r33 1998

20 inch

8.5 wide

35 offset

225 front 245 rear

look nice big 20s but everyday driving car being lowered almost 2 inches had to roll guards and remove innner plastic

you really feel the bumps and really have to watch out for pot holes .19s or smaller are probably better for everyday but something always have to be compromised looks or performance.

  • 3 weeks later...

Skyline model = R31 Aus Spec

Wheel diameter = 18in

Wheel width = 7.5in

Wheel Offset = 40

Tyre size = 225/40

Modifications to fit = 5mm Spaces On Front to clear Strut/Spring Plate, 30mm bolt ons for the rear ONLY for looks.

Looking at putting

F - 19x8 - 55 Offset

R - 19x10 - 37.5 Offset

Recon these will fit?

    • Behrman is great quality stuff. My 34 has some serious clouding as well but I’m too nervous to try and replace the glass myself so I haven’t bought them yet. 
    • This might be true if you live in NZ but I can't see how this could be true for us locals here.  I've found the customer support for Haltech to be absolutely amazing. I've turned up to Haltech and spent entire days with their tech support guys, they've even helped me with wiring dramas that had nothing to do with their products.  They have the best customer support of any company I've dealt with, I can't imagine how my experiences with them could possibly be any better.
    • If you want to do a single throttle body conversion easily, you won't need to pull anything apart. Take the linkage from your throttle off the linkage controlling the ITBs. Now open the ITBs wide open, and lock the linkages in said position. Now add a single throttle body onto the front of your inlet plenum. No it's not ideal for the last nth of a kw, but it'll be a lot better than what you're already trying to do...   PS, ITBs can be so damn hard to tune from, because roughly 20% movement in a throttle body equates to a change in roughly 80% of its flow (Hence power). When you add up the flow limitations of those small throttle bodys, it is a LOT higher than that of a single large throttle. Hence, TPS is very very sensitive with them, and you do a LOT of work with sensor fusion, and some Maths behind the scenes to make those blends nice, and be smooth.
    • Yep, when Haltech purchased Adaptronic, and all of the Adaptronic staff, including Andy went with it, it took Haltech to the next level. Haltech wanted Adaptronic as they wanted things like Andy's fuel models, and some other IP, AND they wanted Andy too as he is brilliant! Andy has spoken about the incompatibilities between the old 1500 stuff vs Nexxus, and it totally makes sense. It's not JUST software that is different, there is huge changes in the underlying hardware too. It's why Haltech has had soooo many changes in the last couple of years, in terms of Hardware, and Software, and why it has become so damn Amazing. Why do you think guys like Rob Dahm with his quad rotor, went from running Adaptronic's to running Haltechs? Andy. Pretty much, Haltech these days, is Adaptronic, but with more funds behind it, and more staff, and hence Andy's visions, and visions of other people that he helps shape their great visions, into amazing new products. All the new Nexxus gear, whole new software for it, new and better dashboards, the apps that will run on headunits and NOT be slow to respond! I understand people being burnt in the past, but if you're ragging on a company, about products and issues from many years ago, it's more a reflection on yourself, not looking or keeping up with new stuff. In which case, those people should be going back to PowerFC and Nistunes as the ECU's to rave on about...
