Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

[Manuel Kasko]

Really keen to have a crack at this after work today.

Best method so far is something soft in there and lower the car slowly

or the soft hammer

[Frosty]

not much point but def will work to an extent...now get out and do it and show us pics!!

[Frosty]

dont lower the car on anything you are likely to bend/kink the guard...

if you were close id help you out on sunday as i have a guard roller as well as all the other gear

Im a major noob to wheels guys im upgrading to a series 3 R33 GTR soon and CBF reading through the 107 pages lol but basically the below link are the rims im looking to buy im after these in 18x10 - 10.5" if i can get them just wondering if anybody can tell me what offset i would need to get 275-285s under the ass without stupid camber or rolling guards etc they also need to clear my alcon brakes which are 315mm rear rotors and 4 spot calipers and and fronts are 356mm rotors with BIG 4 spot calipers im after diiiiiiiish also Is this possible?

yeh, you have to be real careful with that method... if it's just to lip the guards you can manage it without distorting them

this one slipped through

nice wheels however it doesnt state what offset they are selling.....you would want to run an 18x10 (offset in the high teens) and you should be fine with that tyre size

[Mick_o]

Only used the ebay link as a reference mate was told he can get any size in just wanna get the right offsets so they sit nice with fat rubber

[Mick_o]

Appreciate the advice frosty cheers mate. Can anybody else confirm the offsets recommended by frosty?

[Frosty]

18x10 +20 will sit about 7mm inside the guard and will be nice with a 285 rubber wrap to fill guards

[Manuel Kasko]

Just went and picked up a heat gun and a rubber mallet haha wish me luck broad minded persons

[B-rice]

let us know if you have to take out the guard lining for good.

[Manuel Kasko]

So behind those inside guards is a few wires and hoses etc. are you sure it's good to keep that off and leave them exposed to tire possibly hitting them?

I think you guys meant the guard covering the top of the wheel arch?

[B-rice]

^^^^^^ that's what I thought too but seems like people take the guard liners off and not hope that will happen

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

i have all the wires tucked up away safely so they cant be munched

[Manuel Kasko]

I split the paint a tiny bit.

Was only able to get half a guard done and it was pretty hard I was unable to get the lip flush with the guard.

Rather the clogging up the offset thread if someone who knows what to do could message me that would be great either on here or mobile is 0408 257 613

[sleptema]

Based on what exactly?

Kasko it's going to look tits brah

Based on another 33gtst with 9+20 all round. Front was little poke, rears were a little inset. That is why I went 10+30 on rears for that extra little poke..

Don't get me wrong, still looks mean, if you want same size all round - that offset would be the go.

[Manuel Kasko]

Hectics actually pokes more then mine.

Could be I dropped mine pretty low so the camer brought it in?

When you look at it it's running a fair bit of camber

[Frosty]

more than likely different offset. im with voncina tho if you want a touch more agression run a 5 or 10mm slip on spacer but other than that man looks the goods

[Manuel Kasko]

Exact same width offset and tires I copied his setup. Even used a screenshot on my phone to remember what he was running haha

[Manuel Kasko]

For now I think I'll leave it as is.

Only to test the waters and see if I get any attention for having them.

Also my funds have dried up a little haha
