Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines


Recommended Posts

Got R34 gtt with Bilstien slightly lowered coilovers

I want to get some Rota Grid R 17"

Plan to have 235s on front and 255s on the back

What offset/inch should i be looking at to be a nice fit ( no rolling )

anything around +35 will be about right if you dont want to roll the guards etc. (tho it does depend on exactly the size of rim you intend to use.) 8.5 & 9?

Seriously though, dont hesitate to be open to rolling the rear guards. You can get some way nicer fitment and ride height if you do.

17x9.5+17 or 18x10+18

nope.

closest is 18x9+20 which will be a little sunken.

so options are:

18x9+20 with 10-20mm spacers

17x9.5+17 all round

17x9.5+28 fr and 17x9.5+17 r

17x9.5+17 fr and 18x10+18 r

18x10+38 fr and 18x10+18 r

18x10+ 18 all round

any of these will look good and pretty much all of these will require some form of fitment modifications unless you plan on running your car like an SUV

Does anyone have photos of how a 245/35 and a 255/35 sit on a 18x9.5 rim??

Can't decide which I want to run in terms of slight stretch. Pretty sure a 255 will just sit flush?

Need to know asap so I can supply one fitted to the body shop to pump my rear fenders to match.

Hey guys, missed out on the buddy clubs! Now looking at some 17x9 +33 offset with 235/45/17 tyres? Also would these then fit over

the 324mm R33 GTR rotors (have the GKTech caliper Spacers for the 280mm disk)

Cheers!

    • 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
