wheels for GTR's
Durzel,
the problem with the GTR is that it uses a low offset (the measurement from the flange on the backside of the wheel where it contacts the hub, and its distance from the centre-line of the wheel,measured in mm), whereas most other modern Euro and Japanese vehicles use high offset stuff. That combined with a required width of 9 inches or more means there is almost nothing in Europe for the car. The only solution is to use good quality bolt on wheel spacers with theit own studs, and combine them with a higher offset wheel. For example, I broke a 33 recently with just that - it had 8.5x18 BBS RC brilliant wheels in offset 40mm together with the spacers (I happen to still have both). Personally, having been engaged in selling wheels for many years, I found it highly frustrating to be left with less than no choice on wheels,when I came to do the job on my own car. Even the single piece stuff in Japan is highly priced because its either forged or magnesium. The BNR34 wheels are lovely, but they are about £700 each from Nissan. Keith Cowie fitted a set on his last 33, and Ronnie (Glens friend has a set on his car) Both used the spacers to fill the arches (Please correct me if I am wrong anyone), and I am fairly sure Ronnie has 265/35/18's on his (similar rolling radius to stock)so you are going down the correct, albeit expensive road. Just remember to mind those kerbs
