Hey guys would a set of 18"s 9.5 and +26 with 255/35 tyres all round fit fine without any issues on a four door r33gtst stock height?

Edited by BrOwnY GT

Hey guys need some advice been looking through this topic ALL night and still unsure of what to get. Ok I have an r33 gtst wanting 18 by 9 or 19 by 8.5 in the front and 18 or 19 by 10 in the rear. I want to run at least 265 40 tires in rear and 235 or 245 40 tires up front. Really want this height cause the roads here a kinda bad, willing to drop to a 35 in height but that is the absolute lowest I can go. Now I was wondering what offset I would need for the front and rears to make the wheels fit with as little modification as possible? I can adjust height and roll guards if I have to, but that is all I really want to do. What offset do I have to run to make these combinations work?

I was thinking an offset in the low 20's would work for the front and low 30's high 20's for the rear?

What do you guys suggest?

this will be a little different from the norm..

Skyline model = R33GTST

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = 13

Wheel offset = a magic number

Tyre size = either a 275/35/18 or 295/35/18

Modifications to fit = Widebody

AHHHHH!! are they the wheels off ebay that were on there for ages?

i so thought about buying those for my 33 gtst..

I'm rolling on 18x9.5 +12 fronts, 18x10 +15 rears on completely standard metal, no roll or lipping at all, i am running 225/40/18 all around though on teins

Havent had a good look, but I should be able to fit 18 x9 18 x 10 +22 on a 32 gtst with a little camber and slight roll pretty easy yeah? What tyre sizes would people reccomend? Thinking 215 and 235 in a 40 or 45?

my fronts are 18x9.5+12 with 225/40 r18 tyres ,modifications to ift are rolled guards and remove the inner plastic .

and the rears are 18x10.5+22 with 245/40r18 tyres ,modifications were rolled and flared guards done by a mobile guard roller/flarer

i have about neg2 on the fronts and 0 camber on the rears . hope this helps at all .

Pics please! You must have some stiff coilovers

Hi there, fairly new to the skyline scene, and not sure if the wheels I've got in mind would fit or be too wide... Any advice you could give me would be appreciated. I've got an N/A R33 which has the 4 stud hubs. I'm gonna be doing a 5 stud conversion soon, and so I'm starting to look at wheels. I've got a set of wheels in mind... They're 18s which are 10in wide all round, with 30 offset. They're coming off an S15, so I'm under the impression that means they should fit my 33 with no problems after the conversion? Correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks guys.

Ah, yeah true.

Anyone got pics of 9.5 +22 on a 33 gtst? Got some Rays in mind, pretty confident they'll fit but wouldn't mind seeing how they sit

they will sit 3mm further out then my professors did....

AWWWWW come on guys no help!!! Help please?????? Open to suggestions. What is the widest tire size I can run in the rear and mods would I need to make these rims fit front and rear? Looking at 18 or 19 by 9 up front and 18 or 19 by 10 in the rear. I dont mind rolling the guard and a bit of camber but if it can be avoided I would like to if not I am willing. Offset for front +36 rears +43

Just copy and fill in the table;

Skyline model = R32 Gtr

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width =10"

Wheel offset =+12

Tyre size =235 40 18

Modifications to fit = none so far.

Car has bc coilovers fitted. Front can go lower which ill do when i get more time. reckon the back may rub with passengers.post-66556-0-47619800-1329052281_thumb.jpgpost-66556-0-01544800-1329053283_thumb.jpg

    • Well, do ya, punk? Seriously though, let's fu<king go! The colour and kit looks amazing on the car. Do you have any shots from the rear? I don't quite follow how the model came around. You bought the white kit and he modified it to match your car? Looks nuts either way!
    • So my car is finally back from paint! This took an absolutely insane amount of work and should get it's own build thread - but I didn't build it. It was completed by Troy @ https://scalekustoms.com.au/ I originally bought the AOSHIMA URAS Type R kit while I was in Japan, it's supposed to look like this when assembled: Now, I thought that was cool enough until I opened the box with Dismay, as there's no way I could possibly have completed it. The thing is 1/24 and has details down to the steering wheel horn button, which is a 2mm diameter sticker. I originally wondered if someone could make it at all, as is - But then things got a little carried away. It's worth noting that the model does not have an openable bonne, let alone engine bay, OR an openable boot. - Troy has worked wonders with 3D printer and presumably better eyes than I will ever have. My photos suck, so I will post up some of his in-progress ones he sent to me during the way. Unsuprisingly, he is very detailed. A lot of these are out of order. But he: 1) Made a LS engine and an engine bay appear out of thin air 2) Made the bonnet removable 3) Printed the rims I will buy in the future (or any rim you want) 4) Printed and added the wing that is going on 5) Tinted my back windows as this is what my car has IRL (privacy glass) 6) Added a licence plate. 7) Somehow did the interior 8) 3D Printed my actual seats 9) Made the exhaust under the car connect even though this is likely invisible. 10) Created a boot with my fking battery box, power steering reservoir, subwoofer and toolboxes back there. To say it's insane is an understatement. And I f**ked it all up because when I was re-mounting the wing (it broke in transit) I spilled glue everywhere and ripped paint up and Gregged the rear half of the car. Which about makes sense. Also, this arrived on the same day. Quite the change from: I spent 16 hours per day over the next 3 days pre-christmas putting the interior back together, mounting lip, fixing various bodykit problems with window mouldings, etc. and servicing, rebuilding my 370z brakes to go on the car 'soon', messing with heights to check clearances for new wheels, etc. I also had a foray into mounting wiper-mounted washer jets which was an absolute disaster. The bodyshop has welded (and painted) over the stock jet locations for reasons unknown to everybody (i.e they forgot) I also wanted to wire in the oil pressure sensor on Christmas Eve which was a BAD IDEA. You do not know terror like pulling your ECU apart, pinning in half-fitting pins that aren't the right ones, but trying anyway because it's Christmas eve, putting your ECU back together and having a no-start condition with a fuel pump not priming. Then you undo all your work and the fuel pump still doesn't prime. So after all that terror and horror and pain and tedious disassembly, the issue was the relay in the boot which seems to have died/stuck when I was turning the car off and on about 700 times testing shitty washer jets. I also re-wired the fuel pump power plug which fell apart in my hands. I am very happy I had 3 extra pre-made ones from a few posts/last Christmas's breakdown. https://bluewireautomotive.com/products/10-x-pcm-ecm-ecu-terminals I have put an order for these in, so I can actually add the pins to the ECU properly. The commodore ECU does not have the pins for Oil Pressure via ODB2. However the ECU can support it if you create the pins and wire them in. So for round two, and somehow attempting to route that into the engine bay through my impossible engine bay grommet is a fight for another day. It's 40C in Melbourne tomorrow, I am half tempted to drive the car with the aircon on to deliver presents to my partner's family and see if it helps with the overheating-on-40C-days-in-traffic-with-aircon-on-only issue that the vents were intended to solve. Do I feel lucky?
    • Yes, while being... strictly unnecessary. Tuning is a bit like quantum physics. You don't need to understand what Schroedinger's equation actually means. You just need to run the computation and accept the answers. With tuning, you just push page up/down until the exhaust tells you that you've got the fuel right. The VE can stay hidden behind the curtain like the Wizard of Oz and you'll never need to know what he looked like.
    • The second part yes, the first part about easy VE calculation is something I've seen a few people talk about online.
    • You 100% could do that, would save money on a gym membership lol. But yeah, getting a cordless orbital sander will feel priceless coming from doing it manually.  Good luck with it mate
