Looking at the new Advan RG-D wheels,

http://www.advanwheels.com.au/wheels/wheel.aspx?id=23

The only option that appeals is the 18 x 10.5 which comes in either +15 or +25 and i would run 265/35 tyres.

Wondering if anyone is running any of these sizes on a R32 GTR ? and what sort of clearance issues i could expect other than just having to roll gaurds.

Cheers

Based on how mine fit up, I'd say you'd be best with the 10.5s +25...would sit very similar to mine...the +15s in that width would be a struggle! They'd be out another 10mm or so compared to mine...check pics a page or so back...I'm running 265s as well.

Hey mate,

Im looking at exactly the same wheels for my 1993 gts.

Thinking of getting 18x8.5 all round, not sure of an offset tho.

Did you have to roll the front guards or only the rear? Also do u rekon theyl fit? lol

Thanks

Wheel: Lenso/Raiden D1R (Project D)

Skyline model = 1994 R33 GTST

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = 8.5" Front, 9.0" rear

Wheel offset = +35 Front, +32 Rear

Tyre size = 245/40ZR18 Front 265/35ZR18 Rear

Modifications to fit = Roll Guards

Want to correct the camber a bit so may need to do something with the guards if I do that

Hey guys. I'm pretty new to this website so forgive my noobyness. I'm not really understanding the whole offset thing.

Anyway ive got an 1993 r33 gts (non turbo) 4 stud an looking at fitting lenso d1r 18x8.5+35 to the front an rear. Only mods are lowered springs.

Would they fit without any guard trimming/rolling and without any rubbing on front wheel arch/steering rack etc.

Just want a nice rim that will sit flush.

Any help would be much appreciated. :)

does anyone have any idea how to order work wheels using the nengun website?

i tried but i can't figure out how to choose the offsets and width.

so far, i have standard brakes/calipers and 17" factory rims.

i want high buff 18" work wheels S1 2P to suit the standard brakes, etc

here's the web link i tried using http://www.nengun.com/work-wheels/meister-s1-2-piece

if anyone could help me out, i'd appreciate it

Soem tips:

Ask them to check availability before you send them any money.

You cant decide what size/offset to use or you cant get the website to reflect what you want?

the thing is, i don't know what offset to use when selecting the wheels. i want something with standard brake caliper clearance, deep dish, 18", no rolling of guards,no tyres that stick out of arches, and no removing of wheel lining.

basically something that fits without modification.

these are the specs i tried plugging in nengun.

offset: 35

width: 8.5jj

18" high buff

then it gives my a box labelled "A". what do i put in that box?

is the price they quote on the site per wheel of for a set of four?

so damn confusing.:/

    • Welcome.  Glad to hear that you have gained some knowledge that has helped you. I believe the only fix for the power steer belt is an electric conversion with a Holden astra pump. If you get a chance, post pics of your car, please. 🙂
    • Just ordered those bosses, hopefully that does the trick thank you very much everyone for your replies it's really appreciated  
    • to have this type of adjustment possible with a curve as I wish, what budget (engine) should be planned?  
    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
