Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines


Recommended Posts

Depends on wheel type up front.

I had 9.5 +38 not clear the front brakes, but 8.5 +30 all good. Same exact brand and type of wheel, just more/less concave spokes.

Edit: rears I have used both 9.5 +20 (current) and 9.5 +38 (to test) and were fine with guards rolled and 235/45/18.

Looking at running some Lenso D1R

18x8 +32 F with 225/40/18

18x10 +22 R with 255/35/18

car is stock height

Do these offsets sound right?

ive searched but every r34gtt seems to be running different offsets.

im hoping some one is running these rims and can confirm offsets before i buy.

my local tyre shops here have no idea- they asked me for offsets, and proceeded to tell me im an idiot for running a 255 on a 10" rim.

guess they dont want my money...

Alright, so

My CST Zero-1 Hyper's are finally in Australia, and I have a question.

The rims are 18x9.5 +15 all round.

I'm going to run a 265 35 tyre on the rear, and a 245 35 on the front

Do you think I'll have issues with this setup?

I'm thinking the front will be a little tricky.

which car?

easy fit on a 33 or 34 gts-t

will need to remove guard liners and roll the fronts fairly aggressively.

go for a 235/40/18 as opposed to a 245/35, it looks better (although very similar) and is cheaper.

Is 18x9.5 +15 f and 18x10 +20

215/45 going to be too aggressive for a stock 34gtt do you think?

lol that's a LOT of stretch... easily doable but I wouldn't feel comfortable with a 215 on a 10"

fitting rims with 235 fr and 255r would be easy

Ok their not 215 their 235 9.5 and 10"

Just got to see if the low offsets Wil fit.

Test fit this weekend

i just got 18x9.5 +25 front and 20 rear. they stick out a bit at the front standard GTT hub. if you want a really flash fit go for +22 rear and 27-30 front.Ill take pics and show you anything over +20 will look terrible imo unless if you like poke.

<p>Pictures to GHO5T as promised a bit of poke as you can see.The rears are fine i reckon but the fronts have a bit too much poke but I can deal with that,just not flush

18 x9.5 +25F +20R rolled the back bur the front a bit of a guard roll still have a guard liner intact and rubbing only when cornering really hard.No problems on full lock.

Front: 18x8.5-10 225/40 Camber: -3 Guards Rolled will run a 215/40 in future and go lower

Rear: 18x10-13 225/40 Camber -2 30mm Wide Guards will pull camber out to -1 for skids

34 gtt. Definitely going to run a 235/40 now as I'm realising the front is going to be a tricky fit.

I'll just have to put up with it until I convert to wide guards :yes:

    • That's true. However, this problem has started since the tuning. First time with the return journey from the tuning. But yes, the pipe was clogged with dirt and rust. That was certainly due to age
    • Great info @tidi0x  Will definitely be handy for others and maybe me if I decide to keep the shit box H pattern.
    • Bumping this up one last time.... I wanted to follow up on the clutch slave issue. I realized that what the issue comes down to is the pocket is flat milled, and the cylinder does not want rest flat. So in order to mount it correctly you will need to make a spacer for the fingers so the cylinder is floating. I took two plates of aluminum, drilled some holes and was good. I did still need to make the relief cuts in the bell housing, as even with the spacer the bleed section still interferes. The OE bell housing the mounting holes are raised from the housing.       
    • If the event in USA goes ahead will be interesting as it seems the rules will get more cars over here. Apparently the track is laguna seca too. Yeah s15, if I get a the lower dash trims, centre console and change front cross member to standard LCA position will fit clubsprint. See how rules are as i would rather do complete widebody than a bolt on flare to run the 295 with proper clearance.
    • If the car is legal height I can't see it being an issue. Found a thread on reddit that might offer some insight.   I got a ticket from a copper in QLD for my S15 being too low. They had this wheel thing on a stick that they put under the car and it hit my exhaust. Anyhow went to an exhaust shop to get the exhaust tucked up/hung a little higher and I wound the coilovers up a smidge. Don't think I even had to go back to the police station unlike when I got defected for having a carbon bonnet when I brought the S15 from the ACT to QLD and had to replace it and then rock up at a police station and have a yougish female officer who knew nothing about cars confirm that I had changed bonnets. Should have just painted the carbon bonnet yellow to match the rest of the car lol
