Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines


Recommended Posts

stretch is against my religion. But a 235 should see you right.

Otherwise camber is also a bad thing in a street driven daily unless you dont mind paying the $ that it costs in how much quicker you chew ur tyres out because of said camber.. but around 1 degree on the rear should see the rims n tyres fitting as well as minimal tyre wear from it.

Cheers man, Been a great help!

Hey guys.

I've got a R32 gtst coupe running factory 16 inch wheels 205/55/16. Looking at some 17x9 17p offset buddy clubs with 255/40/17 tyres.

What will i be looking at foul wise?

Cheers!

Hey guys, not very good with offsets and what not so was just wondering how a set of Work CR Kai 18x9.5 +20 all round would sit on an R33 GTST two door. Would it be better just to stick to my original plan of Work XD9's 18x10 +18 all around? Guards have been pumped and were previously accommodating 18x10 +12 no problem.

Alex's old car yeah?

Definitely the XD9s, size difference isn't huge but they look much better than cr kais imo

Yeah mate Alex's old car, cheers that's exactly what I was thinking. Only reason I was considering the CR's was I could get them for a steal! Thanks for the input :D

hey all been searching for ages but can't find any for a R34 GTT, what i'm gonna be getting are some 18x9 but not sure on what offset, i was thinking about getting some so that the wheels sit a little bit outside the guards, if anyone can give me some advice it would be greatly appreciated!

You weren't looking hard enough haha. There are some on here, but far and few between.

Search for my post, I had 18x9.5+22 on the front and 18x10.5+30 rear. Front was 0 camber, rear was natural (around 1 deg neg) and car was slammed. Both poked by around 5-10mm: not too aggressive that cops want to pull you over, but still a very nice offset.

The equivalent to mine is 18x9+16 up front, and 18x9+11 rear. If you plan on slamming your car, run stretch or you won't be able to lower it enough. I had 225/40 fr, 245/40 rear, guards sat over the tyres nicely. Your front liner will more then likely need to be removed because epic scrapeage.

Have fun, remember to post up pics :)

Here's the wheels I've been building. Just got car from the painters so the N1 rocker panels are going on today. No roll front or rear and standard 1.5 degrees of camber front and rear. 265/35/18 on 18x10.5 et23 O-disk R-disk. I spent some time coming up with the specs for these wheels. It's down to mm of clearance but works great.

Hey guys,

Considering a set of Lenso Project E's from http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/420823-new-project-e-concave-wheels/

How would the 18x9.5+22's fit on 33 gtst?? I'm willing to roll the guards when i drop it in the near future

Thanks

If you are slapping those wheels on and lowering, roll guards is a must. If you have it stock height, I don't see any issues, maybe a slight scrub on the front guard. Front poke, rear tuck.

Here is my R33 Skyline GTS-t with 18" Enkei RPF1

Front 18X9.5 + 15. 235 tyre with -3 degrees of camber

Rear 18x10 + 38 (5mm spacer) 265 tyre with -2 degrees of camber.

I could just squeeze my fingernail under the rear guard

    • That's true. However, this problem has started since the tuning. First time with the return journey from the tuning. But yes, the pipe was clogged with dirt and rust. That was certainly due to age
    • Great info @tidi0x  Will definitely be handy for others and maybe me if I decide to keep the shit box H pattern.
    • Bumping this up one last time.... I wanted to follow up on the clutch slave issue. I realized that what the issue comes down to is the pocket is flat milled, and the cylinder does not want rest flat. So in order to mount it correctly you will need to make a spacer for the fingers so the cylinder is floating. I took two plates of aluminum, drilled some holes and was good. I did still need to make the relief cuts in the bell housing, as even with the spacer the bleed section still interferes. The OE bell housing the mounting holes are raised from the housing.       
    • If the event in USA goes ahead will be interesting as it seems the rules will get more cars over here. Apparently the track is laguna seca too. Yeah s15, if I get a the lower dash trims, centre console and change front cross member to standard LCA position will fit clubsprint. See how rules are as i would rather do complete widebody than a bolt on flare to run the 295 with proper clearance.
    • If the car is legal height I can't see it being an issue. Found a thread on reddit that might offer some insight.   I got a ticket from a copper in QLD for my S15 being too low. They had this wheel thing on a stick that they put under the car and it hit my exhaust. Anyhow went to an exhaust shop to get the exhaust tucked up/hung a little higher and I wound the coilovers up a smidge. Don't think I even had to go back to the police station unlike when I got defected for having a carbon bonnet when I brought the S15 from the ACT to QLD and had to replace it and then rock up at a police station and have a yougish female officer who knew nothing about cars confirm that I had changed bonnets. Should have just painted the carbon bonnet yellow to match the rest of the car lol
