Bulletime Donating Members 937 Member For: 13y 10m 4d Gender: Male Posted 23/05/13 10:06 AM Share Posted 23/05/13 10:06 AM Lots of good info thanks guys.Yeah bellato I'm def more concerned with handling and performance than looks, don't want it looking like a turd though but yeah.18 x 8.5 + 30 and 18 x 9.5 +35 (or less? how much less) prob sounds the way to go... might have to see what tirerack would cost or see if those ebay shops can get them in since they have bit much of a skyline focus...

Prob a little way away getting them but I'm really liking these which should clear brembos too http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=wheelCloseUp&wheelMake=Enkei+Racing&wheelModel=PF01&wheelFinish=Bright+Silver+Paint&tab=wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vxr50t Member 134 Member For: 11y 7m 1d Posted 23/05/13 12:29 PM Share Posted 23/05/13 12:29 PM the enkeis are nice but sizing is very limitedhave you considered work kiwamis? (new cr kai) they do 18x9.5 +30 deep concave face and I think they clear brembosI know scatterbrain runs 18x9.5 +30 all round and it clears on his BF. check this post:http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/83426-18-x-95-30-front-of-fg/would be worth asking scatterbrain and nelsonian if he got around to fitting them on the frontsif the fronts fit, you could run the same size tyre all round and rotate your tyres which is another bonus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naddis01 Member 49 Member For: 17y 7m 17d Gender: Male Posted 24/05/13 01:02 PM Share Posted 24/05/13 01:02 PM Ok guys, I just got myself a new FG mkII XR6T sedan. I have started reading this thread but 2000 posts takes a while.I am probably looking at a 19x8.5 and 19x10 combination running 245/35/19 and 285/30/19. What offset range should I be looking at to sit close to the guards but not foul on them and without rolling? I'm not interested in doing work to the guards or running spacers etc. Is it possible to get a 10" rim with a 285 on the rear of an FG sedan without guard rolling or suspension clearance issues?Also why does everyone seem to run 275 on the rear when 285/30/19 are a better match to 245/35/19?

You might wanna try jdmconcept he does specials from time to time on nissansilvia.com .Naddis you're after 8.5 +20 & 10 +36 or +38 Dunno why ppl run 275 either, maybe the brand of tyre they want doesn't come in 285. I have 10s on mine with +33 on 285s but my tyres have wide sidewalls so they stick out even with nearly -2deg camber.
