Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

[Frosty]

18 x 9.5 +12 (guards same same 33 / 34)

nice....perfect fitment

looks tough as

[GH05T]

what car?

R34 gtt coupe

R34 gtt coupe

well you were saying to run a 235 so i would go a little more aggressive on the offset if you can otherwise you are pretty spot on with sizes

[GH05T]

Depends what's available in the wheel I'm looking at too, buying new so I can choose but the range is fairly limited it seems. Other choices are +15 I think,

[deva0o]

Any suggestions on tyres for a r32 gtst fitted with 17x8 +33 front and 17x9 +36 rears? Thinking of 225/45 front and 245/40 rear? Or perhaps a 215/45,235/45 setup?

[AdrianGTT]

Can anyone confirm if 18x9.5+32 front and 18x10.5+38 rear wheels will fit an 1996 r33 gtst without any modifications, are these the widest you can go before you have to flare guards? if so how much wider can you go..

maybe wheel spacers?

cheers

That should be a completely safe fitment. Should sit inside the guards (for legality issuess) and shouldn't have any scrub issues, especially staying stock height. Run 235/40 fronts and 255/40 rears just to be sure. Make sure you post pics when you are done

hells no.

That will hit the rear guard lip and rub the front guards without doubt. Would need lots of camber and guard rolling to fit.

Will not be legal.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

you are both wrong... lol

if you want low you will need to pull the guards a little for those sizes... but not much

and you wont need epic camber.

reference the pics at the top of this page

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

and no... it wont be legal..... but i'm sure you knew that already lol

[AdrianGTT]

yeah i was looking at the 33 at the top, but i want to go for the out of the guard look, what will it be involved in doing that and fitting the new pair of ssr i just bought 18x9.5+32 and 18x10.5+38

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

if you want them further out then you will need either wider wheels of spacers

I am going to debate this..

If his car has no modifications then the stock height plus the small amount of stretch he will be putting on the tyres will miss the rear guard lip. I have 10.5+30 on the rear and if I raised my car I wouldn't need guard rolling at all. The only reason this fitment is illegal is because he will be running two different sized rims.

by that token if you raised your car it would stick out a bit too... remember they tuck in when lowererd

and becasue they are 18's

and because they are 10.5's

and becasue of the track increase

lol

who cares if it's legal... legal rims always look shitty

[Frosty]

this thread is starting to bring the LOLZ

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

we really need to have a seperate thread for "is it legal" rim questions lol

[Frosty]

thats only 1 post tho seems a waste

[B-rice]

i figured some people just say it fits but they wouldnt do that to their cars. If it possible people should try test fitting and seeing if its possible or trust those with pics otherwise man you could serioslu get some bad offsets which you cant return.

[PaulosECR33]

17 x 8 + 5 front 205 tyre

17 x 10 + 5 rear 235 tyre

r33 s2 to fill the guards evenly do you go same size wheels all round. Or how much wider on the rear hypothetically if running similar camber.

planning to go 18 x 9 +21 front and 18 x 10 either +33 or +26 rear. Would prefer to go a little lower in offset but next up is 18 x 9 +9 which i think will be a reasonable effort to make fit and not scrub (ride height approx 335mm eyebrow)

Cheers
