Thank you to everyone within this thread that answered my questions and provided info, and ultimately helped me select my new wheels (width and offset) Here's the end result (minus big brake kit awa

Thought I'd share my setup since there doesn't seem to be much info/examples out there for this particular setup. Perfect for spirited driving on back/mountain roads, not so ideal for daily driving or

What's this gonna be like...

18x9.5 +22r

18x9.5 +30f

Tires are 225/40

On an r34 gtt

My calculator estimates the fronts will be out another 35mm and the rears 43mm

The car is lowered so a small amount of natural camber Bo no camber arms.

Seems Ok but what do the experts think?

Of course you are going to need to roll the rear lip and push the front guards back a bit but otherwise all good.

will be pretty good but for the love of god put some wider tyres on it.

9.5 inch rims take a 265. Get at least a 255 on there.

Hey guys,

I've had a read through this thread and found a few guys running close to what I want in regards to rim sizes but I'm not entirely sure on what tyres would fit

I've got a 98 R34 GTT

Rim size at the moment are 18", not sure what offset (they came with the car when I bought it)

For tyres I'm running 235/40/18 (Blue Streak) on the fronts and 245/40/18 (Eagle F1) on the rears

I've got my eyes on a set of TE37SL Black Edition

From what I've read up on I'm looking at going 18x9.5+22 at the fronts and 18x10+30 at the rears

Would I be able to run this rim and tyre size combo?

At the moment the guards are not rolled but I do have adjustable coilovers and camber kit (currently set at 1.5 neg on front and 2.5 neg at rears)

Thanks in advance

Perfect.

Absolutely perfect.

Just remember to roll your guards, then enjoy wonderful offset - I had the same and it was immaculate. Front at 0, rears are around 1.5 and it was 5mm poke both sides.

tried searching, but didnt get a definite answer.

Will 25mm gktech spacers cover the stock wheel studs? or do I need to go 30mm? ie so factory studs wont protrude from the spacer.

my cars a 32 gtst btw

Hey guys

I own a 4 door gtst and am looking to fit Work Meister S1's

Rears 18x10 245/40/18 +20 offset

I dont want to have to do to many modifcations, preferably just a good roll.

If it helps I'm running BC coilovers.

within reason anything can 'fit', in that very liberal interpretation alot of people seem to be getting into these days.

In this case, well, not really if you are talking about an r32 and only rolling.

Otherwise it will also be a mexican stretched abortion...

It will also eat tyres and attract the 50 like a *insert witty comment here*

Actually these will fit with a little camber in the front tho on the back run a 235\40 and will be not much drama at all. You will need roll the inner lip tho all round

Will these fit...

Car: R33 Coupe

Wheel: Rota Grid

Front: 17x9 +25

Rear: 17x9 +25

(Can stretch tyres if within reason, just want to know how they'll sit)

*Read about 15 pages and couldn't find what I was looking for*

It'll sit 5mm further out compared to this:

Tyres, don't know, 235 wide would probably be okay.

      Shifting questions

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone

      Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.

      I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.

      I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?

      I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
