    r32 wheel fitment

    I just got a set of 17x9 with offset of +18, would these wheels specs be near flush on a skyline? does anyone have pictures of similar setups?

    Thanks!

    GTS-T will need some fender roll and stretch tires.

    GTR will can run anything 245-255 with no fender mod.

    some pic I dig up:

    GTR was what I'm looking for, I'm planning to run 245 front and 265 rear, c-unit that looks exactly like what I'm going for! thanks

    I think a fender roll is all I need to run 265s then

    yea. maybe a super slight roll. I have 18x9.5 +12 with 255/35 and It's super close and still don't need a roll.

    Is it true that if the tire width difference is too big between front and rear it would throw off the handling? Especially for the GTR? I heard if rear is too much wider than front it'll tend to understeer. I'm hoping 245 front 265 rear would still give a more or less neutral steering

    it puts the hicas/altessa out.You never want to change the rolling radius . fact, i've had many gtr's, been working on skylines for 8 years. just needs to be little out and you can see the tourqe gauge flicker, sending power to the front wheels.
