Scaffman Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Hi all, I’ve just tried fitting one front gtr r35 wheels that I’ve purchased to put on my 350 and it just would not fit on the front, is there any adaptations to be made? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Straight forward fit as I have done it many times in the shop. If I recall all have had the 20/25 combo spacers fitted. Or perhaps I have had to remove the spacers, can't remember which. Did you remember to remove the locating pin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaffman Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 Hi, where is the locating pin, but they also seem to be catching on the bolt on the top wishbone? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZMANALEX Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 The ET is different on the LMGT4 rim so you may have to fit spacers. Are you running stock upper arms? If that image is of your actual car, the answer is yes. Is your camber at OEM settings? Are you running correct tyre size? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaffman Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 Hi, they are the stock upper arms, and I’ve not changed the camber and the tyre sizes are front - 255/40 zr20/ 101y, rear -295/35 zr20 105y, could it be the suspension?? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 No, the issue will be ET and tyre size, so fit spacers. Your 18" front tyres have a diameter of 660mm and the 20" is 712mm which is 52mm of a difference which is 7.88% This difference combined with the different ET will be causing your issues. Fit Eibach hub centric spacers. I am assuming that you are running stock suspension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
