My (soon to be) new wheels! *Pictures on page 2*

[Dorifto]

Gram Lights sucka. 57 Pros to be specific.

(F)17x8 +35
(R)17x9 +35

All riding on some Nitto 555 225's up front and 255's in back.

Nice rims! Which car are you putting them on?

 

[CKG22]

Nice, Very clean wheels.

 

[Dorifto]

On my '89 240sex. You can see it here: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=7833&page=282&pp=20

By the way, I also just put in a VLSD, so that's one more thing to mods list.

 

[Revheadnz]

Beautiful wheels, can you psot some photos up when you get them on?

 

[Dorifto]

Of course. Also, the 2fizzle will not be white anymore, but rather gloss black with a Zenki lip. I was planning on an S13 front end and a FMIC kit, preferably the Greddy VSPL, however the wheels were pretty expensive so those other mods will have to wait.

 

[ferrari_chris]

Nice!

My mates got some very similar. 57PRO's as well, his aren't gold like yours, but they're 18". 9.5" wide, and he's running 225's all round, just for that strecthed on drift look, and because that's the only way they'd fit...

They look mint.



His seem to have a lot more dish than yours, but that could just be your photo.

*EDIT* - I see his are +22 where yours are +35, that might explain the difference in dish. Is this number the offset is it?

 

[a6m5]

R32 and 240SX coupe. 👍 As a Nissan fan, I liked those pictures a lot!

 

[neanderthal]

yeah that number is the offset.

Whereabouts in NZ are you? I can't say I've ever seen that plate around (I had always wondered who had it )

No R badge either?

 

[Dorifto]

Damn those look dope as **** on that Skyline! Man I can't wait for my rims.

 

[ferrari_chris]

Have you seen this plate before have you? I can tell you that he bought it second-hand...

Now that would be telling. Plus, I don't think my mate would appreciate it too much, I didn't even ask him if I could plaster pictures of his car all over the net...

 

[Jay]

Nice rims 👍, you've done a 5 stud conversion?

No I haven't seen the plate on the street, a friend of mine was playing around on the Personalised plates website and searched for that and was disappointed that it was taken.

I'm not looking to steal the car (I know of a much faster GTR that I wouldn't mind owning ) but it's always nice to know whereabouts some of the Kiwis on GTP live 👍

 

[r0gu3]

Nice Silvia ....

That looks exactly like my buddies skyline. Looks good. 👍

I'm in New Plymouth, but that doesn't mean to say my mate is...

Where abouts are you and do you know if there are many other NZer's here as well? I know of at least two others.

What's up ferrari_chris, it's good to see another Kiwi on GTP. I'm an Aucklander BTW.

Back on topic (sort of), tell your mate that his Skyline is mad 👍 . Is it a GTR without the badges or just a GTS-T with a GTR kit? I'm guessing the second since if I managed to get my hands on a genuine GTR I would't be shy about showing it off. Great plate BTW.

 

[Dorifto]

Nice Silvia ....

I didn't put the badges on if that's what you were wondering.

Nice rims 👍, you've done a 5 stud conversion?

No the rims are still 4 lug which is quite lucky for me.

This is for Taurine as well:

The car's for sale and could be yours.

You can check it out here if you like. He may even deliver it to Auckland, you never know.

 

[Takumi Fujiwara]

Shoulda done 5 lug, if you're getting expensive rims like GL57Pro. If not, prepare to run some major spacers.

 

[Dorifto]

They are coming with all the spacers I need. The guy who had them before has Tein coilovers like me on an S13 hatch, so everything should fit just fine. Plus, I don't have the money to go 5 lug, and I've checked my options and it's kind of expensive.

Well believe me, if I had about $12-13,000 that car would certainly be high on my list but I'm really poor (only 17 y/o, still at school). Cool car though.

At least 20mm I hope, 30mm would be better. Nothing worse than a 240 with rims that'd be really nice, except they're totally sunken in the fenders.

 

[Dorifto]

We'll see how it all works out. If I need more spacers, I'll get more spacers. However I feel as if everything is going to fit just fine.

 

[Funkshen]

Very, Very nice rims my friend.. From the looks of things your car should be looking quite nice when the rims are on. 👍

 

[barryl85]

very very nice wheels, im in too much debt to buy new wheels 4 my car, but get pics posted once their on cos they are huge!

 

[Cosmic]

My dream car 👍

Anyway, Dorifto, your car looks sweet even now, and with the rims... 👍

I was under the impression that GTR guards couldn't be fitted to a GTST?

 

[ferrari_chris]

Have you seen the price?

I was under the impression that GTR guards couldn't be fitted to a GTST?

What gave you that idea - we got them on there very easily. Wasn't quite a bolt-up, but no major dramas. Old guards off, new guards on - 2hrs...

 

[Revheadnz]

Have you seen the price?

Yea I saw, $6800 for just the car but I'd want the wheels ($4500) too and I thought that they weren't being sold with the car. And that's like $11,300. So saying $12,000 was close enough.

Plus, I only make $200 a month part time so I'd have to save constantly for about 5 years to buy that car. Hmmm
