I am buying a set of VOLK GT-C's in 18x10 but cant decide on either the +12 or the +17 fitting?

The car is a R33 GTR.

Can anyone here please suggest me which way to go.

Id go the +17 option. It will sit 0mm closer to the strut (standard inner clearance) and extend 26mm on the outside

The +12 will sit 5mm further away from the strut on the inside, and will sit 31mm further toward the guards. The whole wheel will be further out from the strut, plus the extra 1" rim width.

The +12 may give you scrub problems depending on how low or depend on the camber of your suspension setup. I have 18x10 +18 Work wheels with Tein coilovers and have never had any dramas with clearance etc.

Hope this helps... By the way GT-C's will look awesome :glare:

Hey just a quick question guys/girls... Do commodore stocko's fit on a R33...

Cos i got 8 of them sitting in my garage off my old mans old VN and yeh cant really be bothered to see if one fits but if someone is sure they do then u could just possibly of made my weekend :(

Please please please *fingers crossed above head eyes closed*

Tried using the calculator that some of the guys has posted on this string but I have no idea what the stock offsets are for the R33 GTS-T Series 1. All I know is that they are 16 x 6.5 and they use 205/55 R16 or 225/50 R16 tyres. Someone help me out here?

Looking to get some Rays Volk TE37L and I just want to make sure the buggers fit. I think R33 GTS-Ts have 5 stud so I am going to have to rule out the 8inch there.

If they do comfortably, then SOLD! Just gotta find a place that sells them.

Thanks n15m0. I thought its better to modify my post instead of just adding another post saying thanks.

Hey guys,

I have been reading about wheels offsets as i am about to buy a new set of 18' Rays Ce28n's for a R33 GTST and have been recommended the following widths and offsets

18x8.5 +30 fronts

18x9.5 +34 rears

What are these going to fit like. Would the look any good in that offset. And would they have much dish on the rear?

What offsets would people recommend?

Any help would be appreciated!!

Cheers

Alan

Thanks for that n15m0,

How about these wheels will they fit on easy without any mods?

RAYS Nismo LMGT-4

18 x 8.5 +30

18 x 9.5 +38

Thanks for the help

Cheers

I'm reluctant to answer you as I myself am looking at getting tht particular set :D

But since I'm a nice guy...yeah it should fit without any dramas. :/

hey peps, just got a set of super advans 2nd hand

they are 17 by 8 and 9's, not too sure of the offset but they fit really nice, but i gotta lip/flare the guards.

is it possible to lip them without respraying? and what should i pay, or were should i go to get it done melbourne?

First of all, please forgive my ignorance. I am new to this site and found it to be a great Forum and has great people!

This is a great thread and i've just gone through to read all the pages. Lots of info in there. However, not many people have posted offsets on a R34 GTT. I've got a question as per the person posted before me. Can a 18x9.5 +30 wheel fit onto my R34 GTT seriesII? My car is stock with standard wheels and suspension. I am looking at changing my wheels to one of the BEE-R/Nismo LM types.

With this settings, will I have any clearance/rubbing problems? even with full turns?

Lastly, has anyone heard about Rota wheels and where to get them in Australia? Thank you all in advance! Keep it coming! Cheers,Michael

bump, exact same interest in this :D

EDIT:

18x9.5 +25mm offset

18x9.5 +38mm offset

That is how 18x9.5 +30 will sit on the rear of a 34...sticks out bout 5-10mm...but with lowering a bit of camber and stretched 235s on there I reckon it will just fit with slight lipping needed...

Ideally you would want to get 18x9.5 +35.

car wouldn't be lowered, or ever so slightly.

would adjustable sway bars, front and rear help at all?

so the lower the offest number, the further it sticks out? So the +38's would go up front and +25's the rear?

i'd be thinking 265 the rear tyres, at least 255.

someone previously mentioned removing the inner guards??

    • Ah right. Maybe my rb just loves chewing through batteries lol.
    • On the R34 can't you just unplug the IACV? This is the way I've always done it on the R33. Disconnect IACV, get it idling around 650rpm, and then do a power reset on the ECU to get it to relearn idle (factory ECU).   The big reason no one has touched on as to why you'd want to get the base idle right, is that it means the computer needs to make smaller adjustments to get a good idle at 700-750rpm.   Also, cleaning the IACV won't normally make the car suddenly idle lower or higher. The main issue with the IACV gumming up is that the valve sticks. This means the inputs the ECU gives, aren't translating to changes in air flow. This can cause idle choppy ness as the ECU is now needing to give a lot of input to get movement, but then it moves too far, and then has to do the same in reverse, and it can mean the ECU can't catch stalls quickly either.
    • 12.8 for a great condition, fully charged battery. If the battery will only ever properly charge to about 12.2V, the battery is well worn, and will be dead soon. When I say properly charge, I mean disconnect it from the car, charge it to its max, and then put your multimeter on it, and see what it reads about an hour later. Dieing batteries will hold a higher "surface charge", but the minutest load, even from just a multimeter (which in the scheme of things is considered totally irrelevant, especially at this level) will be enough over an hour to make the surface charge disappear.   I spend wayyy too much time analysing battery voltages for customers when they whinge that our equipment (telematics device) is causing their battery to drain all the time. Nearly every case I can call it within about 2 months of when the battery will be completely dead. Our bigger customers don't even debate it with me any more ha ha ha. A battery at 12.4 to 12.6 I'd still be happy enough with. However, there's a lot of things that can cause a parasitic draw in a car, first of which is alarms and immobilisers. To start checking, put your multimeter into amps, (and then connect it properly) and measure your power draw with everything off. Typical car battery is about 40aH. Realistically, you'll get about half this before the car won't start. So a 100mA power drain will see you pretty much near unstartable in 8 days.
    • Car should sit at 12.2 or more, maybe 12.6 or 12.7 when fully charged and happy. If there is a decent enough parasitic load then it will certainly go lower than 12.2 with time. You can't beat physics.
    • Ok guess I can rule out the battery, probably even the starter and alternator (maybe) as well. I'm gonna clean those leads and see what happens if it's still shit I might take it to an auto electrician. Unless the immobiliser is that f**king heavy, but it shouldn't be.  If I start the car every day, starts up perfectly never an issue. Isn't 12v low, shouldn't it be around 12.5v?
