Sydney roads are f*cked. For one of the "best cities in the world" they should really improve the road system. I didn't realise how f**ked it was until I got coil-overs and set the dampening to the softest setting and still bounced all over...

[ishyz34]

rota grid 18x9.5 +20 all round,

what tyre size are you running on those wheels mate?

[owenliberts]

they are 235 all round, ATR sport on the front and rsr's on the rear

i wouldnt list Sydney that highly.......

as for the dampening thing. i thought the same thing.....soft settings = soft ride.

seems i was wrong, on soft the bounces seem to continue on. ive got mine wound about half way to hard on the front. and a few notches less on the rear and it became alot more drivable on my crappy ass main road.

XXR 527's for a r34 gtt

18x9.75 +20 or 18x8.75 +20?

Which would be the better flush fitment (aggressive but not a ton of camber)?

Guards will be rolled and lipped btw

18x9.75+20 will poke fronts, inset rears. Won't need camber, will only scrub on full lock.

18x9.75+20 will poke fronts, inset rears. Won't need camber, will only scrub on full lock.

So would it be better to run 18x8.75 + 20 up front then? Or would that be too flush/not very good stance?

[HEKT1K]

Can go either man, it's up to you. Only a 12mm difference in outer position, not going to make or break how it looks

I am about to buy 18x9.5+22 fronts. The way I see it, I don't full lock often. I am looking for form>function. But yeah, if you go the 8.75, you will be 12mm LESS poke. Depends if you want it to look good, or be functional. But I would go wider on the rears or think about bolt on spacers if you want some flush. I am going 18x10.5+30 rears, I don't think that is poke enough, but I haven't bolted them on to see, I am going off a mates car that has 18x9.5+20 all round and his rears are inset.

[TM7GTR]

Post up a pic when you're done with yours steve. Very interested to see the fitment.

[ishyz34]

Does anyone know how

9.5 +22 (front)

10.5 +30 (rear)

Will sit on a gtt?

Too aggresive or nahh?

If you took any sort of time to actually read this thread, you will realize that I am doing that exact fitment. I wish people would actually read the thread before posting. I went through 95 pages of this thread before I asked any questions. Took me a few hours, but at least I know what I am talking about now. Anyone can tell you it will fit, but you want to get the fitment that YOU want, not what other people say will look good.

Either way. With that fitment, you will NEED the guards rolled, front and back. With no camber, you will poke fronts, and hopefully poke rears. Only by about 5mm, but poke none the less. Run stretched tyres, and lower the car onto them, and you will get some nice stance. I have a black gtt, going varrstoen 2.2.1 (te37 copy) rims. 225/30/18 fronts, 245/35/18 rears. You will get scrubbing on full lock on the plastic lining inside the front arches. If you don't have coil overs, get them.

That is 18x9.5+20 all round. With that fitment we are wanting, fronts will be inset 2mm, rears will poke 3mm more.

I have ordered my rims already and I plan to have them on in 2 weeks on my R&R week (I am up on site for 2 weeks). Pics will be up immediately. If you want to wait until then to see the fitment, and judge for yourself.

Hey Dudes,

I am going 18x 9.5" +12 advan tcii's on my 33 GTst... it has m sport front guards and 33 gtr rear guards with original rear guards rolled right up...

Does anyone know if these rims will fit with 265 35 r- comps on??

[Husky33]

i have the same but in +22 front and +15 on the rear, and with camber they just fit.

So as long as your guards give you an extra 10mm on the front and 3mm on the rear than stock, they will fit no problems.

[roarpwr]

Fair enough... cheers for that...

Alrightty, cheers mate, yeh i just could not be bothered going through all the effort!

but thanks heaps for the reply, i'll be looking forward to you posting up pictures soon!

With that set up it sounds like a lot of aggressiveness, me likey!

Anyone have this problem? I've got a R33 GTS-t with R33 GT-R wheels on it. 17x9 +30 all round.

Seems like on 'near' full lock the wheel smashes into the suspension arm.

Luckily at the same time, I spotted the bracket holding the brake about to fall off, quickly bolted that back up!

[boiracer]

i have seen this scuff in the powdercoat on mine. but it only just touches, barely enough to scuff the paint

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

lol, my fronts are shaving metal off as you can see
