18x9.5+22 255/40 A050s all round.

Would not recommend without serious camber on the fronts, or pumping them hard. Chewed the guard hard on tight corners. Rears were fine.

Are you sure that's 9.5? I know semis are usually a tad wider but that looks more like 255s on 9"

I am looking at this myself as I was wondering if I can get close with 9.5 +27. I have -2.2deg camber at the front, and happy to roll and maybe even flare guards if the price is right to get it done.

As you have it, how close is it from being feasible?

Yeah they are quite large. I think 265 are supposed to sit sort of flush on a 9.5, but mine are still quite bulged.

Update on my fitment. I pumped/flared my front guards and had minimal scraping issues. Running maybe -2/-2.5 deg camber I should have no clearance issues with the current height.

any thoughts on 17x10+38 in the front?

I've already got this in the rear and it sits super flush with 265s and would ideally like a square setup so is this going to work?

obviously going to need some fender work but am i going to smash my struts?

cheers

Pretty sure that'll hit. You can measure it though :P.

not for another couple of weeks, i'm away for work and was hoping to put an order in so i can have them for when i get home  :banana:

looks like i'll just have to chuck the rears on the front and see how she goes, fingers are crossed

I don't think they will, I test fitted my old rears - 9.5+38 on the front of my 34 with a 15mm spacer and there was about 10mm clearance at most

10" and +38 would be up against the suspension I think

Currently using 9.5 +26 and have about 10mm clearance

that sucks.. not giving me much hope but i'll still give it a crack once i get home.

i found this:

rpf1's only come in +18 or +38 in 17x10 and that to me doesn't look like a +18.. it sits how my +38's do on the rear. i do however have a coupe not a sedan but surely the guards aren't 20mm wider on the sedans?!

about half way down the page there is the 34 on 370z wheels. it looks as if he is running a square set up of the rear wheels and they are 19x10+30.

I can't see the first link being 10" wide all round at +18 offset, they seem to sit within the guard line!

I have a sedan, and the front guards are the same as the coupe, and the rears fit much the same as the front, maybe 10-15mm more clearance

The 370z rims seem to have a fair bit of camber to squeeze them under

Here's how mine fit at 18x9.5 +26, 245's on them. It's as wide as I'm willing to go as its a daily that I like to drive without smashing rims into guards etc

I couldn't get much more under the front with normal camber settings 577cfd20018b1_ImageUploadedBySAUCommunit

To add to the above post, I have 18x9.5 +27 all round, with 265/35/R18 AD08R (supposedly a little phatter than most) on all 4's. I have -2.2deg of camber at the front and about 1.5 on the rear.

The guards DO need to be rolled/pulled a little to get these to fit. After driving around for a week without this being done there were many bad sounds and long strings of rubber peeling off tyres and such. I don't think this would have been a problem if running 245's like above poster ^----

The rear does tuck in under compression (I have a large amount of squat in the rear of my car when on the fun pedal)

Lads,
I'm sure this has been answered previously but I can't seem to find the exact reply to the exact sizes I'm looking at.
Would i have problems running;
Concept Concave rims at
- 18x10 +20 all round
- 235/40 or 245/40 tyres
- Rolled front and rear guards
If not what would you guys recommend running? They stock 18x9 +20 also, would this be more appropriate for the front and 10" +20 for the rear?
I'm after an aggressive look that wont poke too much and id rather not run staggered but i also don't want to run Mexican spec either!
Sorry for the ridiculously pedantic requests but i can't seem to get the right answer and I'm stuck!

Help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers

If it's for a 32 GTR, 10+20 will be perfect and can run a decent tyre size like 265

Hopefully someone here is an expert on wheels and offsets and can provide me some "real world experience and advice"

I am interested in acquiring a set of Rota RKR Wheels.

PCD 5x114.3 in 17 inch.

Issue I have is that I currently have a set of wheels that have printed the following 17x10 with ET 15 (doesnt state whether its a + or - ET 15) which fit like a glove! But are shit wheels

I am trying to figure out what my options are in relation to the Rota RKR offsets and what will work.

17x8.5 -10 or 17x9.5 -20

Hope someone can lend some advice on this

I can't seem to work out if a set of Rays LMGT2 17x9+16 with 255/40/17s  will fit on my R32GTR.

I've searched but can't find anything.

Has anyone fitted Rays LMGT2 17x9+16 on a R32GTR without rolling the guards? I'd like to avoid rolling them.

Any help will be appreciated 

Andy

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
