Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines


Recommended Posts

Recently bought a 33gtst s2 and looking for some wheels. I found a set of 18x9.5 et35 just wondering who else has run this spec and any clearance issues or mods needed?

If you searched this thread you would have found that out.

Skyline model = R32 Skyline GTS-T 4-Door

Wheel diameter = 18

Wheel width = 9.5

Wheel offset = +38

Tyre size = 245/35 (This is a must...)

Modifications to fit = None, but it would be recommended to get some wheel spacers, I am thinking of running 2.5 in the fronts just to push them away from the suspension just a tad as it's a bit close for my tastes.
Stock suspension, fenders have not been touched what so ever.

Has anyone had the A disk on a r32 gtst with R33 gtst brakes on it?

I have A disk meisters with r32 gtr brakes on the front, clears the calipers no worries.

O disk rear.

18x9 +22, 18x9.5 +24, they're on a c35, a mate had the same size on a 32 gtst, but needed more camber and guard work than the laurel, pic maybe not relevant haha

O disk doesn't have as much curve in the spokes to get around the caliper.

Pay to check on the work site but you'll see certain sizes and offsets available on each disk.

Thanks mate!

I run 18x9.5 +11 O disc rear and 18x9 +18 R disc front. This is on a 33, not a 32 but I have no issue with clearance

general rule of thumb:
If you want stock-ish fitment,

8 to 8.5 +35 front
9. to 9.5 +38 rear
These are Nismo sizes for RWD Nissans.

From that baseline, you grab a tape measure an figure our where your new set of wheels will fit.

@Adz2332 please specify what car you have, what body panels, and what modifications you will be running.

 

GT-R owners like me have it easy, but RWD owners, have a bit more calculations to run.

 

You can obviously run "GT-R" sizes, which would be 9"+30. But that heavily depends on your preference.

This rant is completely ignoring any StanceNations specs/looks.

32 gtst. Stock panels but don't mind pulling them ever so slightly as it hasn't gone to paint yet. Stock arms etc with coils.

I was hoping I could get any of the specs below to fit the front to

Hey guys any recommendations for fitment for a stock 94 GTR R32 

Want to order work meister s1 3p and would like a nice looking flush fitment. Plan to get MCA coilovers to set ride height etc. Just confused on offset, brake clearance etc. 

Never purchased after market wheels so I'm a bit concerned since it's a long wait to order and I don't want to order the wrong specs.

The other thing to watch in the meisters is they have different faces to cater for different brake sizes. eg. i run an 'R' disc on the front (biggest clearance for brakes) and the 'O' disc on the rear. it doesnt impact size or offset, its just the shape of the rim face that changes.

    • Ah damn. I might grab one myself because mine works most of the time lol 
    • Yes, I mentioned it in my first that I did everything that is mentioned online (Redo dry solders, clean connector between PCB's, etc.) and unfortunately it didn't solve it.  It crapped out again earlier today, so I replaced it. I'll keep the old one around to repair it at some point. 
    • I've looked at some oval stuff but still deciding what material to use for the back half to the muffler.   Yeah I do all my own stuff with ecu setup and have it sorted before generally paying someone (my old work) to do base runs and a few power runs then I'll do anything else myself at track or after review data. It's hard to find  a dyno owner these days that will hire out to random.
    • Injectors are told by the ECU to open for certain amounts of time. If the injector flows more fuel, but the ECU doesn't know this, and is told to open for the same amount of time as the stock, smaller injector, then the larger injector will flow too much fuel/more fuel than the engine/ecu is expecting. You absolutely need an ECU to control injectors. You don't need a tune for a fuel pump (because your fuel pressure should remain the same assuming the regulator works). You don't need a tune for an exhaust (the parameters for fuel and air going into the motor have not changed much) You don't need a tune for an Intercooler (the parameters for fuel and air going into the motor have not changed much, it's just the air is cooler) Yes, forum regulars, I know that you really should get a tune for an Exhaust, and Intercooler. These *will* affect the tune, but the stock tune does have some leniency to it with stock AFM and Injectors. Intercooler and Exhaust will fit within this wiggle room. So will running a boost tee to about 10psi, which is a very old way of increasing boost which is not worth doing in 2024. The ECU is vital. It runs the whole show. Most people change injectors and ECU at the same time for this reason. Some people load base maps on some ECU's that have ballpark figures for injector sizing. Sometimes injector manufacturers are really great and tell you what parameters to input into your ECU, which is something you can do with your new shiny ECU. For a beginner, this may enable you to drive to the tuner to have an expert do the rest. Otherwise, you're installing injectors and ECU at home, and paying for a tow to a dyno. Or, you take the car to a workshop (be happy to travel across Melb for the right shop) and someone who knows RB will be able to source/provide/install injectors and tune the car at the same time if they have a dyno or access to a dyno. The reason so many people DIY things here is because finding said workshop is hard, expensive, potentially getting things wrong with miscommunication/other.
    • @robbo_rb180 do you tune your cars yourself or do you send them to someone? If you do it yourself, do you hire a dyno, or tune it after logging it at the track? Meaning like touch ups when you tweak or modify something a bit
