R35 GTR Alloys

[Sandy]

Hello Folks,

 

Hope you are all well I'm thinking about treating my 350 to a new set of alloys and was thinking about getting a set of r35 alloys and was wondering what tyre profiles would I be looking at.

 

PS not too worried about the tyre prices they will last me a while only do around 4000 miles in my 350 a year

 

Thanks in advance for any advise

I think you would want something like 255/30R20 on the front and 285/30R20 on the rear although I expect you'd be safe going 10mm wider or narrower as well depending on the look you're after and/or what's available. Are you thinking of putting 20 or 25mm spacers on the front to bring them out to the arch?

Cheers for the reply Roadtrip :-)

 

I've already got 20mm spacers on the front so if I could use these all the better. My 350 is also lowerd 30mm

 

PS the alloys seem to be very rare not seen a set up for sale for ages :-(

 

Thanks

I looked at getting these wheels when there was a set for sale on here but decided 20" was just too big for me, then I looked at the 19" G37 wheels for a while as they are similar but smaller, unfortunately they were cast so a bit heavy and even rarer it seems than the R35 ones.

 

I'm now looking at getting some aftermarket forged multispokes of some sort once the financial pain of getting coilovers fitted wears off!

I can't remember who it was that had them but I have a feeling they were running 275/35R20 front and 315/35R20 rear which I think would probably be too chunky for someone lowered 30mm. They had 20mm spacers on the front I believe.

They are expensive but look great

Just seen these, maybe you could get a deal on them shipped without the tyres:

A good find but shipping may be a fart on

I have asked this guy for a price range out or interest.

he has some interesting wheels but I think they might be expensive!

Thats a great price at $2000.

Unfortunately a lot of UK traders would turn that into £2000 for some reason.

So out of our reach.

[roadtrip]

Another cheaper set, still in the US though:

At least being 2nd hand you won't have to pay import tax and or VAT.

So you could be quids in:)
