guys- who's running 18x10 +22 or near size wheels & how much camber are you running to tuck them?

currently has 235/40 and they stick out a good 15-20mm~

got defected for them sticking out so only solution is to tuck them in as i dont want to change wheels,

last alignment i had was -1.4

i'm thinking close to -1.8-2 as i will be lowering it bit 20mm more so the top of the tyre just tucks in.

I am assuming this is on a ST/T, not an R.

At that offset the entire rim will never be inside the guard. Adding more camber will just make the bottom poke out more.

Near flush on a GTST rear with a 10" wide is 30-35 offset and a 1.3"ish" in. Not sure what your regulations are to maintain a roadworthy car where you are at but it sounds like you'd have to either change your offset or possibly get flares to cover up. The others on here will have better insight on your local laws than I.

Another question guys. Looking at a set of wheels and I'm not too savvy.

They're 18" and 8" wide all round ET40. for my r33. Says 73.1 centre bore. Just wondering how they'll fit/sit. Cheers for the help :)

Get something with lower offset (e.g. +20-+30 for an 8"). Also depends how you want the wheels to sit.

Those ones will sit pretty much like the standard wheels.

  • 2 weeks later...

Skyline model = r33 gtst

Wheel diameter = 18

Wheel width =9

Wheel offset =+20 on the rear that's all I'm looking at

Tyre size = 225 or 235

Modifications to fit = ?

Dose anyone have pics how it will sit. Car is lowered on coilovers

  • 1 month later...

Skyline model = R33 GTST
Wheel diameter = 17
Wheel width = 8/9
Wheel offset =+40
Tyre size = 225/255
Modifications to fit = None

Wheel: Inter Milano 17" Wheels

On the other hand

Skyline model = R33 GTST
Wheel diameter = 18
Wheel width = 9/9
Wheel offset =+15
Tyre size = 225/40 245/45
Modifications to fit = Won't fit, hits side skirts, hits guards, hits everything. Need smaller profile.

Wheel: D1R's

Car isn't all that low either. I have 115mm clearance at the lowest point. I've gotta wrap the new wheels with 35 profile on the rear and can MAYBE get away wit 40's up front.

what would be the better option for an r32 gtst 2 door, 17x8.25+25 or 17x8.25+35? will be running 235/45 tyres all around, i know i can tuck both under stock guards but i want to be able to tuck the rears with between 0-1 degree negative camber so which would be the better option? guards are currently all stock but wouldnt mind rolling them, not to keen on doing much more, thanks!

Might as well post up my current setup

Skyline model = R32 GTST

Wheel diameter = 18

Wheel width = 9

Wheel offset =+27

Tyre size = 225

Modifications to fit = bit of camber on the rear from lowering the car

Wheel: Rota g-force

Does anyone have issues with front wheels unable to full lock steer or touching the front most point of the side skirts in their 33? I don't know why but just looking at my car from the side, the wheels look to sit further back of the centre of the wheel arch...

    • Hi, does anyone know how I can, or can a moderator remove this advertisement please.  Has been sold a long time ago and would like to remove references. Thanks. 
    • There are adaptors that allow you to delete the booster and use an s15 clutch master cylinder.    if you want to keep the booster they are still available brand new 
    • I visited again today: It would appear they have painted the main body of the car and some parts of some of the panels, so I can say that I now have BMW parts in my car, much to the envy of @Dose Pipe Sutututu It is still covered in dust which is quite the tease but I did look at a few circumspect spots that will be behind bumpers and such and wiped some dust away: After my repeated begging to PLEASE DONT PAINT OVER THE ENGINEERING CERTIFICATE (you have to re-engineer the entire car if they do) I see THIS: Which is great. Excellent job tbh at least to me. A better non dusty example would be the backs of the doors that have been painted: Giving a reasonable contrast between old and new (I know the old isn't clear coated on the inside of doors). The door card will well and truly cover where the old paint is, you can see in the second pic some of the black butyl/whatever shit is sticking the plastic sheet behind the door transfer that has happened since it's clearly been stuck back on. The most maddening thing about this colour is every time I saw it in the wild it looks like another colour, same with photos of many cars with the same colour looking wildly different in every photo anybody ever takes and this is no exception. But stand a little further back and it suddenly looks dark AF. I did tell them when I was discussing which of the 70 million charcoal colours to choose from (a porsche one, a BMW one, or a R32 GTR one etc) that if they just ignored me and chose one at random I would probably never notice. Maybe they did. But the colour is supposed to be B39 (BMW Mineral Gray). Boring I know, but the R34 sedan (to me) really shows off it's boat-ness when you paint it in a bright colour like bayside blue or white or whatever else. I do have a fondness for AR2 Nissan Red, but decided against that because it'll have pretty odd contrast to random bits unpainted (like engine bay, bits of trim etc, and maybe it'll fade). And people will always fkin comment on AR2. Everything remains super dusty. I have tracking numbers for the new heads, as well as some Improved Racing goodies, but they probably will be a next year thing by the time they end up on the car. I did some maths on the heads and I know why nobody goes to this extent in Australia, because it's really not worth it, given I could have just CNC'ed my current heads, bought a FAST102/TB and used my current rocker/spring/cam combination and get a 383 stroker (or stroked a 6.0 GenIV bottom end to 6.6L) built for the same price of just the setup in the mail/on the floor here. Or I could have bought a LS3 and a Drysump system. And then have a complete engine to sell. Oh well
    • We just disconnected the vacuum line if I remember correctly, booster is still there. Is there a rebuild solution for the booster or a different adapter that will work for GTR chassis?
