this is my first post, I have just ordered a set of 4 volk ce28n's for my 1996 skyline gts-t. they are 18x8.5 and 18x9.5, I am planning on running 265 or 275's on the rear and 235 or 245's in front. I have heard that the correct offset for a gtr is +12 but what is the offset for the gts-t?

the guy who ordered them for me ordered them with soe crazy numbers like +35 or something, I just want a good size lip on my wheels. thanks, dan.

This is my reply to an earlier thread.

You would want to go for 8 or 8.5 inch front and 9 or 9.5 inch rear.
To maintain the same diameter front to rear it would be better to go with the combination of 225/45 front & 255/40 rear or 235/45 front & 265/40 rear.
(assuming 17 inch, same width but lower profile for 18's)
Offsets you want to look for are:
between +30 and +35 for the front and between +35 and +38 for the rear

thank you very much, that is exactly what I needed.

Sorry, I know I'm being thick, but what does this 'offset' actually mean ?
