Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines


Recommended Posts

Heyas,

Keen on a set of DTM Racing P5 wheels.

I want them in 18x9 or 18x8.5 . They have +25 and +35 offset available.

They're for my 1998 R34 GT-T. Before i go and confirm the purchase it would be awesome if people had thoughts on whether i would have ANY problems or fitment issues with either.

Thanks in advance!

Hmmmm. seems like every set of wheel i want will take 2 months to arrive.. fuccckkkk

almost any wheel worth having you have to wait for, unless you want some ozzy tyres specials they are off the shelf ready complete with +54 offset.

try thinking of it this way.

the face of the rim remains static and the offset affects where the barrel sits

the exception is some rims like say drifteks for example where they make 1 cast then remove material from the back and boltholes dependant on offset requirements

to answer your q on types available, i'd suggest the motorsport section in drag n drift

Yes they will fit, will probably need rolled guards. 265 are a bit large for a 9" rim. Go 235/40R18.

^265/35/18 on R34 GT-R wheel. Yep, 265 is way to big for 9" wide, even 235 is muffin. Get 185 wide tyres.

I've got Lenso D1r 9J x 18s. Will it fit 265s? 34 GTT btw :thanks:

yes, however cant tell you if it will fot on the car without knowing the offset... as they are lenso's i'll assume +30ish and say they will fit fine

265 is big for a 9" wheel I doubt he needs a 265 for his application

    • So.... when I'm finally getting around to having my power steering leak sorted, now it looks like I've got the same issue most A/T Skylines are having. My A/T light will randomly come on and I'm stuck in 3rd gear until I turn the car off and on again. Only 3 weeks ago I did a complete transmission service: Oil flush + new gasket + new filter. This came out of nowhere!! It wasn't like the car was driven hard. I drove about 3 mins down the road to get fuel and boom!!!  Anyway, I have a few questions and hope you fine people can help me out here. All questions are in red. 1. The solenoids: I was looking at the parts catalogue in Amayama and I could only find the Solenoids as an assembly. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/319404ax05 I read in another thread that Solenoid A = 31940-4AX02 & Solenoid B = 31940-4AX05 but the Amayama product has only the code of B. Is this the right part? Can anyone who has done the Solenoid changes or seen them confirm if this is the complete set of A & B?   2. Gasket and Filter: I'm not going to try change the solenoids myself because it seems difficult to do in a home garage with just 2 jack stands. I plan to take it to a shop and get it changed. I was also going to buy the transmission sump gasket at the same time so I don't reuse the same gasket. Should I just use the existing gasket as it has only been on the car since OCT 19th? (~3 weeks) Should I be buying a brand-new gasket and a filter? Does this job involve taking the filter out?   Thanks in advance to everyone. It's hard to find a video of someone doing a solenoid change on a R34 so any help you can give answering my remaining questions would make me less stressed.
    • Yea - From what I have seen from the video, the car idles like any R34 lol 50PSI of fuel pressure is hardly super abnormal, the regulator is working because the pressure remains static when the throttle gets revved, i.e pressure remains the same when manifold vaccuum changes. Bigger pumps on stock rails always bumped the pressure in the rail without using an aftermarket regulator to change that. Do you know what your IAC is actually doing? Has there been any data showing the stepper motor % etc? There's no way your idle is actually moving around the way the cluster(s) are indicating. You would hear the difference with the engine RPM flying to 3k and 1k in mere seconds. I'd be checking the wiring to the tacho. What the tacho is telling you and what the engine/ecu is telling you are different things. I assume your ECU doesn't display the spike. So whatever is telling the tacho to be at X rpm is doing something weird. When the going gets insane, you're on the wrong path. You've ruled out plenty of things that are working correctly/aren't the issue. Your idle isn't doing what the tacho is indicating. You have two seperate issues, I don't think they are linked, and the idle seems reasonably okay unless it's stalling which.. well, it hasn't. Troubleshoot the stall if it occurs by figuring out what your IAC is doing vs what it is being told to do.
    • So awesome! I love the RB with the exhaust on display.
    • NO HITS PRICE DROP   ENGINE - $8.5k ONO TRANSMISSION - $1.8k ONO  
    • If it has had a code in the recent past, the code should still be there waiting to be read.
