Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

[Chris32]

34 GTR rims are 18x9 +30 Chris. It's a good ball-park for decent wheel fitment for 34 GTT's

Cool, so 18x9.5 + 34 would probably fit OK at the front and no worries at the rear I'm guessing. The hard part for me is getting me head around the offsets!

Being 12.7mm wider but sitting in 4mm more they'd poke out 8.7mm more than 34R rims? Does that calculation sound about right?

If I run the same size/offset front and back, will the track me the same front and back? The tyres I have now are 235/40's and if possible I'd like to use them, as they are good quality tyres

[Frosty]

you are on the money!

[Spark911]

yeah i reckon so. The picture on the previous page of the blue 34 GTT you put up had wheel offsets of 18x9.5 +20 running 235 40 18's, which has a small amount of stretch and poke.

No problems running same size rim/tyre front and rear mate, at least you can rotate them to get decent mileage out of them

Ok nice. That fitment at the front is probably a bit too aggressive for what I'm after - but a 34 offset as opposed to a 20 should sit in nicely I guessing.

C'mon tax return!

[Forged 33]

Well I had a look at my rim at lunch and it has no offset size on it

correct, and doit!!

GTR are 9" +30 and fit nice, but could be a little more.

[Chris32]

Ok, I've since found out only the 18x9.5 +22 clears the brake calliper in the Varrestons on the front.

Might be a bit too aggressive fit

Chris head to my build thread.

I have a set of 2.2.1's

18x9.5 +22

All round fitment and I love it.

Nice, they do seem to fit well. I'm guessing that a 34 will have very similar fit

[Manuel Kasko]

Yeah they fit great on the 33
I'm sure they would look good on the 34

We need voncina in here to confirm.

He has a great fitment on his 34

[Forged 33]

So can anyone tell me what offset I need for my 20x9 inch ring to fit inside the guard on my r33 gtst ?

About +15 will give you a pretty flush fitting.

+10 will give you hectic stance

Not sure how the guards will like it though.

[Forged 33]

Well at the moment I have 20x10 and they stick out past the guards and cause its my daily I get pick on by cops cause of them so I want them inside the guards also another reason why I want 20x9

[HEKT1K]

+30

[ECR-033]

18x 9.5 +22 (235/40) - 2deg camber front

18x10.5 +30 (265/35) - .5deg camber rear and slight guard pump/flair

[TM7GTR]

Nah it's my daily car.

I wanted 19's but apparently I couldn't get them so I got 20's instead

Said no straight man ever...
