Can we PLEASE PLEASE stop buying rota and varrstoen or any other knock off wheels....

Its like almost paying full price for a pair of Jordan or Air Max knock offs from ebay. You can buy Enkei or other wheels from SAU sponsors for about the same price. If you want any other decent jap brands contact jesse streeter http://jessestreeter.com/

just for this I am going to go and buy more fake wheels

I know this has been overdone a million times but im about 20 pages in and i still cant find someone with the exact fitments im looking for, ive bought a set of te37 super laps in 18x9.5+22 for my r33 gtst and now im not sure what tyres would fit exactly without scrubbing or maybe a tiny little bit worst case scenario, ive narrowed it down to a 265/35 for the rear and 235/35 for the front. Both front and back guards are rolled as well. if any one can shed some light if i can do those tyre sizes that would be great!

also is it true that 35 is the rolling diamater for a r33 gtst or can i go up to a 40 profile

Cheers

been done a million times.

I had 18x9.5+25 with 235/40/18's and low for some time

ric runs this size currently

had to remove liners, roll and slightly pump all 4 guards and tuck the wires in the front right up better.

just buy quality 235/40/18's and run front and rear. then you can rotate etc

I ran Nitto NT05's most of the time with that size and 330rwkw

The 235/35 would be a smaller rolling diameter than the 265/35s. I believe 235/40 is closer to the stock rolling diameter, and also a more standard size I think...

I'm running 235/40 front, and 265/35 rears.

Got any photos? So many people fitting new wheels, not so many posting the results... :(

post-120186-13864970451246_thumb.jpg head lights need a good polish here haha:(

Looks good. Even more convinced I need to go 9.5 +22 all round now.

You were worried about fitment on the rear? Why not just swap them over and try it out?

yeah i did haha, in my earlier post i said i tried it out and it rubbed on the lip just thought it would stick in more on the rear

Just fitted my XD9's, needs more low in the front.

Thanks to Jesse Streeter for the wheels, Motorsport Wheels and Tyres and M@&k for helping me with fitment.

Specs:

-1.5 Degree camber front, 225/40R18 18x9+30

-1 Degree camber rear, 235/40R18, 18x10+38

Guards are untouched, as they left factory.

Ah really haha, weird. I just measured the bottom of my front bar from the center and it was 163mm, what is yours? mine isnt all that low i guess even though its on lowered springs haha. My center muffler is sitting just under 100mm or so :/ need a resonater instead. So your using the same wheels? did you get the lip rolled on the rear coz mine rubbed when i tried it out on a quick drive.

Yes i got all my lips rolled.

Perhaps Alex and Joey can post a link to their cars as both of these guys helped me when deciding what sizes/offsets to get... Alex's car with the gold xd9's was one the best 33's ive seen, his Enkei's were just as nice

Yeah i have actually seen this before and have screen shotted it a while ago from the forums. This car helped me a fair bit in my choice. It looks awesome and i bet would feel pretty good.

I didn't know you sold it - time seems to fly by so quickly. I quite liked the pics you had when you had the mismatched front and rear wheels ?
