Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

on stock metal?

[blags]

It will look retarded..... I sense some vomit coming up already..

Unless! You flare which would require a fair amount of body work, Low and camber tuck hard AND if you did id be pretty jealous because I wanna do it haha

I'd try something like a 18x10 with between a 0 to +10 offset, that would look amazing!

Oh and I got my fronts on today..... So happy!!!!

[Sean W]

im gonna ask what is possibly a dumb question but im happy to hear all input.

got 18x9.5 +38 Work emotion CR Kais.

275/35 on teh back and fit fine.

245/40 stretched on teh front....and they dont get past the brakes >.<

car is a 33 SII GTS-T, no guard mods front or rear whatsoever atm.

is 5 or 10mm spacer and/or guard roll the correct course of action from here?

cheers

spacers are your only option to clearn the brakes. as for guard roll depends if you need it once wheels are on.. i think you might get away with it if you put a smaller tyre 275 is farkn huge dude.. ive got 265 on a 10" and thats to much.. try a 245/255 u can even go 235 but that'd be fair stretch'd also spacers all round is not something i'd want to drive around on i hate them depending how much its not clearing by u might get away with a small slip on spacer of a couple mm.. just a thought

better advice sell them and get something with a better offset.. but if u dont do this give the above ago a post pics of result

lol blags.. saw u last night cruising through t/c wheels looked toughhhhh!

[Sean W]

so with 275s the right rear fitted fine, and the left didnt >.> so light guard roll at the left rear and it was sorted. the front will be running an 8mm slip spacer and longer studs, with a touch of camber. will test drive after spacers and see if it needs a guard roll. rear looks great atm, cant wait to get em on all round

[alr33x]

8mm slip on is huge.. get 10mm bolt on hubcentrics if u can

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

do NOT go 8mm slipons....

you will have low clearance rims.... disk face is also required when putting rims on

IMHO sell them up for better ones

[alr33x]

best advice sell up!

[batakr33]

run 10mm hubcentric spacers ! are they concave front and rear ? post pics

[Sean W]

you will have low clearance rims....

explain please?

Theres the thread i bought them from. pics in that thread.

[batakr33]

it would be hard to sell them aswell 30+ would have been perfect front and rear. I ran 17x9.5 +40 on the front and it cleared. shame that they couldnt fit the fronts without spacers.

[TaKz]

i got 235 on 10" doesnt stretch that much

Alex -

18x11 negative offset might be too much!

i reckon flare your rear guards stretched tyres and fit 18x10 0 offset

well thats what i would do

[alr33x]

235 on 10" is fair stretch i had it..

batak - pizza hut called they want their pizza slicers back

sean put the wheels up for sale its really the best bet trust me u dont want to be running on spacers front and rear its shit, voids ur insurance (not that that's the major problem) and will drive like balls.

i dont think disk type matters much on cr kai's? just re reading above to.. u sure 8mm is enough that will only take ur offset to +30 still pretty high

[batakr33]

pizza slicers lol i dont get it

[Sean W]

im not running spacers on the rear... not sure where you got that from

and yes at the front. 8mm clears the brakes. 3mm didnt, 5mm didnt, 3mm+5mm (just to test) fitted and obv 10mm did. so a single 8mm will work and im happy to do that after fitting longer studs..

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

if you must use spacers go 10mm - 15mm bolt ons all round

Skyline model = R32 GTR

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = 10"

Wheel offset = +18

Tyre size = 275/35/18

Brake rotors = Vspec II Brembos/Rotors

Modifications to fit = Front - None. Rear - lipped gaurds

[Kaido_RR]

nice offset.... will require camber OR flare, but not both

personally i'd go flare and keep the rears on the road

changing to +15 17x9 and +18 17x9. due to issue with brake clearance on the front (silly ap calipers)

running +23 9inch atm wonder how it go with the +18

here is what it looks with a 8mm split on so +15 front

edit: with my front bar on

Note: R33 gts-t with stock front guards no rolling

[alr33x]

x9 +15 will stick out a fair way another 8mm to be exact so unless lots of camber or flare might hang out a fair bit

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

a little camber on the fronts couldn't hurt...

now roll those guards and slam that bitch!
