Collection of GTR rim pictures on first Gens!

I prefer rims a bit darker.

I gotta bump and revive this one because I think the most contributions are on it. I'm picking up a staggered set while my car is in the body shop getting fixed after an accident. 10k off front end damage and they're fixing it.

Anywho, will the staggered fitment need anything at all? I hear some people run spacers with the 9.5 fronts to make them more flush? I am lowered on h&r springs. I am ordering some black spline lug nuts tomorrow for them.

Also tires. I have a set of 275-45-20 now. Will they work on both wheels until I can get some 295s?

anything else I should know before I try to mount these all up?

25-30mm would be good for the fronts.

Im on 25mm on H&R w/ 265/45 FR and 295/40 RR

Better yet, look into front s for rear swap & go square

That just made my day wind dance. Mine is white and my gtr wheels are the darker gray. Now I have an idea what it will turn out like. Still trying to figure out tire size. I have a set of 4 275-45-20 that Id like to put on all four until I can grab a staggered set of yokos

I think the 275 will be ok for temp tires, but it's look kind of funny and might affect the AWD. Learning from everyone else, 265/50 & 295/45 is the ideal AWD setup

Wind Dance.
More info on your headlights and grill please.!

 

[WiND DANCE]

I baked open the headlights and used about 4 coats of krylon stain black on the headlights housing without sanding. The grill is 4-5 coats of anthracite grey plastidip from dipyourcar

Teaser pic. Car was in an accident two weeks ago and still at the body shop. Which is why it was a convenient time to buy gtr wheels, get them powdercoated, and put on while getting fixed. Here's a teaser pic the body shop sent me. Said I should be able to pick her up tomorrow!!!

Ordered these. Big shoulder blocks look good. Hope they work well, if not I'll go to a Michelin latitude sport 3

Gto- Looking good, where's the fourth wheel?

Blazin - Even lifted you can tell the front needs a major spacer.


**Update: the rears have been a pita, slight rubbing noticed on the tires.. Bought a fender roller from eastwood since it's half priced atm. Now that the rears are rolled, the black trim is held on by 3m double side. Hoping it holds!

MLS3 way to GO GTO!!

Yea I have 20mm spacers that according to usps will be here today. I'll throw them on myself after I get the car back.
