asking whether the offset is gonna be flush to the guards.. i dont mind the wheel size

imeant they will be too skinny.... they will not sit flush at all.

i run 17's on the front's of my car for street and all round for track.

nice fitment! how are the fronts? any scraping on lock etc?

also more pic please.

cheers rich

Will post up more pics (probably in the Post a pic of your R33 thread) in a few days when I take some new pics. Fronts aren't currently rolled and there is a bit of rubbing on the guard when turning, putting new suspension in now so will definitely need a roll afterwards.

was good advice true :whistling:

It was indeed! cheers.gif fronts didnt rub at first, and I was afraid on the day because the rear guards were done and f**ked the paint completely, although it was because of rust/bog from shoddy repairs, I just wouldn't have been able to take it if all 4 corners had wrecked paint.

But thanks wub.gif they look awesome!

Thanks Hamish, yep trial fit them yesterday and fronts did stick out about 25mm, will have to change to 235 and hopefully tyre will sit inside the guard.

How did these wheels turn out for you in the end?

I'm also looking at 17x9 +22s for my R33 GTS-T, but don't want to make a mistake with all that cash...

    • Tried them, they leaked. I also foolishly bought some random rubber ones that leaked too.  Genuine and not looked back.    As always though sample size of one, and I could have made a mistake installing them. 
    • Technically still manual process to set it first time though
    • Shit job but not hard. I'd use a piece of wood to knock the plastic lid open to avoid damaging it, use a vacuum to clean up the fuel sender lid also so crap doesn't fall in. I'd probably do pump and filter at the same time since you're already in there, I reused my OEM sock after a quick clean since the one provided wasn't long enough. Could also hardwire your pump if you feel inclined.
    • Supercheap auto sell this: https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p/pat-plusquip-fuel-tank-lock-ring-tool---universal-kit/SPO3564082.html I own this and if you HAVE PATIENCE you can remove it without snapping lines and generally being incredibly angry, then said at doing this job. Sadly I've removed the pump about 75,000 times over the years. I don't know if you're a large lad or a smaller lad but my advice to you as someone who is 185cm is if you are my height or smaller, is to sit in the boot and take your time. Yes you can put the seal on. The seal goes over the white thing/lid (you will see how it 'slots' in) then the whole assembly presses into the tank. then you screw the lock ring on. I spent so much time doing things the wrong way by trying to mount the seal into the tank first, then putting the white fuel hat on in the space provided. Put it together first then it'll all go in. But seriously be careful about removing the hoses AND where the removal tool is moving relative to the plastic pipes coming out of the lid when you've removed it. IT IS BRITTLE So brittle in fact I have two spare lids, and would recommend buying a spare and having it handy before attempting to do this. May as well throw https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD in the tank as well, as this uses all stock plugs and such. You may need to/strongly recommend you re-use your OEM fuel sock or use the one supplied with a length of hose so it sits at the stock height.
    • The tension is automatic....if you follow the installation instructions Self adjusting tensioners are used when the chain/belt is expected to stretch during it's service life, but the downside is the tensioner itself can fail and cause a problem, while the RB system is locked once it is installed and doesn't have that risk
