Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines


Recommended Posts

I would go adjustable arms all round. I went bushes and maxed them all out. Cannot get less than 1.7 degrees rear, nor more than 2.6 front. These numbers is general aren't to bad, but it would be nice to have further adjustment.

Hey guys I have a question.

At the moment I have 20x10 inch rims on the rear of my r33 gtst.

I have asked to order a set of 20x9 cause the 10's are to wide.

I was wondering what offset I will need for the 9's ?

Wow, I have driven a 34 with 20's, it was terrible! Too firm, scrubbed and scraped... I assume its a show car right?

Nah it's my daily car.

I wanted 19's but apparently I couldn't get them so I got 20's instead

Fair enough mate! I am sure the offset gurus will be in here soon enough! I am useless :P Just shocked to see 20x10's lol

Yeah I wanted 19x8 for the front and 19x9.5 for the rear.

But they couldn't get the an said they can get a staggered set of 20's.

But they didn't tell me how wide there going to be

You got pics? Just out of curiosity?

I don't know the offset to the 20x10's I don't know how to work it out but the rim sticks out past the guard and the cops are picking on me for it so I want to put some 20x9's on the rear and want to run a 255/30r20 tyre

After some info for fitment of Varrstoen 2.2.1 on a R34 4 door - 9.5" version.

Best I can find so far seems to be - +30 with a 235/30/18, it won't hit the guard at all and it won't have poke. Ideally you'd want 9" +25 front with 235/40 (v little stretch) and 10" +35 rear (with 265/30/18). Or 9" +25 front and rear.

This pic here - http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=396593

Don't know the specs on this, but I want to get it close to flush, but not sitting outside the guards at all.

Being a daily, I want to keep it as legal as possible while looking the way I want it too.

I've email Varrstoen, with no reply. I'm running 18x8 or 8.5 at the front now and they scrub when turning around a bumpy corner, but not at all during normal driving. The front guards have been rolled slightly by the previous owner, but nothing too extreme, no guard lining at all.

I've seen how R34 GTR rims sit, they are 18x8 +30 from memory? Looking for that sort of fit. As much as I'd love to poke the rims and stretch the tyres, being a daily its got to be reasonably tame

    • From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)
    • In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird
    • Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller
    • So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
