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...

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
