I would say "just fit" lol Im sure you would encounter some scrubbing. When i had my 10.5 wide on the back over 1##km/ph the rear would be pressed down on the tyre causing it to wear pretty bad.

Looks awesome though!

Where did you get the rear guards worked on?

at top one for the back.and as for the front when i get them done ill let you know who i used.

I wouldnt say perfect considering the wheels stick out an inch and the guards have to be lipped and rolled.

Here a few quick pics i took of my 10' wide 18s on the rear:

Here is the view straight up and down

And off to the side a bit.

Just finished fitment of my Volk GTCS

Tyres - 235/35/19 up front, 265/35(its 5cm thick 35 profile my ass!)/19

Rims:

Front - 19x8.5 JJ Offset +27

Rear - 19x9.5 JJ Offset +34

Right on the guards

Fitted Advan V103 Sport - wow they are great tyres, silicone is yet to wear away and they stick like well you know. Rears are Pilot sport, They are so loud I can hear them over the exhaust. Took them awhile to heat up too and until they did I had shit all grip on boost. BTW the pilot sport 265 was as wide as the 235 Yokohama!

No scrubbing car sits at recommended 301cm wheel to arch hight (cant remember exact recommendation for my car)

Hope you like :)

The question of what wheel size fits what Skyline comes up so often I though this might be a good place to post your own wheel dimensions.

Just copy and fill in the table;

Skyline model = GTR R34 V spec 2000 model

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = 10"

Wheel offset = +12

Tyre size = 285 - 35 - 18

Modifications to fit = nil fits perfect. Cant go wider width the wheel will not have a full turning circle.

im suprised theres no scrubbing even with 265 on the rears but then the high offset would help it not scrub i guess.

these 19's were the wrong offset...rubbin on my brake calipers on the front..got the right offset...just clears the calipers enough to spin the rims

it's a sign from the big man telling u to get rid of them :(

but seriously, offset doesnt define brake clearance, the disk height does that.

i pose a bit of a question to you all...

Would R32 GTR rims (16 x 8, +30 offset) fit on an R32 GTS-t, without hitting on anything (assuming stock calipers/rotors) and without rubbing on the guards?

I am running r32 gtr wheels and 225's on my r32 gtst and haven't had any problems with rubbing at all but my car is still at standerd height

I would say near perfect! In my opinion if you don't have to at least roll the guards you have chosen the wrong wheels. The opinion above is why the Australian modified car scene fails as a whole, most people don't have a clue about good wheel fitment, though that is slowly changing!

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
