Wheel fitment thread.

hm dont think i should risk the badass look then... i think i've had my fair share of wheels that don't fit without lots of work from my last car...its basically why i sold it.

18x8.5 +30 and 18x9.5 +15 will be safer i'm guessing?

Yes, but since you have ATTESA, don't you need to run all 4 the same, right?

[mcfly]

I've seen 18x10.5 +15 all around on a GTS-4. Massive roll and pull, but looked dirty.

with what size tires though?
I think it is retarded when guy put a rim that big and have no tire backing it up. It may look cool but completely retarded when you actually want grip.

i have 17X9 oem R33 GTR wheels, and im in need of tires, but i would like to keep my speedometer as acurate as possible. i was thinking 255-40-17, is that too wide?? will the speedometer be off?? any advise would be great

Use this site buddy, it will give you all the info, including how close aftermarket wheel will match with OEM speedometer but remember it's all theoretical http://www.wheelsmaster.com/rt_specs.jsp

That tire size you wrote is probably the closest

I dont know if I can see 18x10+18 fitting on the front of a gts4. Prove me wrong, because that would look badass.

[BurlyR32]

Roll and pull my friend, roll and pull. You can make them fit

17x9 +20 fit on my car with 235/40's with a minor roll.

[jmak]

found some 18x10 +18 all around...i really WISHED they'd fit but how badly will it rub in the front? Mind you these are coming off a gtr and i'm thinking of putting them on my gts4. how much wider is the front fenders of a gtr? what do you guys think?

[BurlyR32]

As long as you are running a decently stiff coilover there shouldn't be a problem. My next route will be 18x10 on a 265 or wider, but thats a different story

[jessem]

Thanks burly, i was leaning towards the set up you mentioned, i do like the idea of a 10 wide in the back and i was kinda thinking a 9 wide +35 with a 10mm spacer in the front but after looking at yours i think i could get a +15 to fit with some lovin. then probably do a 225 in the front and 235 in the back

i would really like to hear everyones input on wheels for my car,
my options are 17x9 +35 or +15 and 17x10 +35 or +25,
im willing to do some rolling and mild pulling but i want a clean looking wheel that has some solid fitment and would fill out a aero kit nice. I think i may have to run a small spacer to dial the fitment in though.
thanks

Have a look at mine. 17x9 +20, fairly low on 235's with a minor roll. Sits pretty flush. 17x10 +25 on a beefier tire will require some rolling/minor pull but not much. A 225 up front o the 17x9 +15 will fit no problem with a roll. I'm running -2.25 camber front, and -2 rear.

thanks for the feedback bignate and dm1133

I guess if there's contact on the inside I can add some spacers...and give it a slightly more aggressive look at the same time.

[dm1133]

You sure it will clear? 9 inch rear with a +38 offset in rear running 255s, I don't think it will clear the coilovers.

http://www.wheelsmaster.com/rt_specs.jsp

I put in the sizes you said for the rear, it'll be 1 inch closer to the inside.

Package is 25 mm (1'') closer to suspension/brakes components. Make sure that you have enough room for that. If not, consider lower offset, narrower tires or using spacers.
