then post it here. if no one, including blain doesn't have the knowledge about r33s, then make a thread in the general forum, and if still not, find an r33 forum for it - or hit up specific stance forums as well.

Work Gnosis 19x10+22 dropped on BC racing type BR coilovers. I don't hate the look but I know there's room for improvement. I'm hoping to get any advice or assistance from anyone who can help because I know that GT-Rs aren't exactly the general topic of discussion on here. but I do know you guys know your stuff and that is why I ask. This is how the car sits now. We are looking at Advan RS-D Wheels or Volk CE28's for the next try. Specifically I know of a used set of Advan's RS-D's which are 19x10+15. Please share your knowledge thoughts and opinions. Looking for something more aggressive but function as an absolute priority.

You're looking at a set of RSDs is 19x10 and 19x15? What the **** kinda crazy advans are those??? lol

I'm too sure what you're asking. What look are you going for? You want beefy tires you can still slide and not worry about munchin' fenders?

I know the R33s decently well so feel free...

I think his specs meant 19x10 +15 all around and the specs on now are 19x10 +22

blain, did you ever take apart your ccws?

i need to take the faces off of my LM20s because they are being repainted to a different color, and wondered if it will break any seal with just the face off.

and how the hell do i get the damn centercap off. i tried tapping it out from the back with a rubber mallet and it wouldn't budge

Stupid question, but if I'm currently using wheel spacers do I SUBTRACT the size from the OEM offset spec when using an offset calculator? Looking to compare the "flushness" of the outer position of some rims with my current set up.

For example, 20mm spacer on the front with OEM 19" rays. Wheel spec is 19x8 +30, and with the spacer would it effectively be a 19X8 +10?

@drew113, yes That is what I mean't! @4dgs, looking to run 265/35s and no I don't want to mess with the fenders in any type of way. Ideally we want the rims and tires to be the same all around. My boy is itching to get get the RS-D but I suggest he waits for some Volk CE28's. The rear wheels look more tucked than the front right now and I'm not sure what to think about running spacers. Shots in the dark

Yes you are correct with your assumptions

Are you set on a square setup??

Thanks. I'm looking at some used rims that were on a G37, so the offsets aren't as aggressive.

The wheel specs for the wheels I'm considering are:
20x9+32
20x10.5+42

I currently have 20mm/25mm (F/R) spacers on my Rays and like how they sit, I'm not looking for any poke or that hella-flush style.

Looks like I would need to run 10mm spacers to match my current setup. 15mm would push out 6mm more than my current setup and would probably look nice also.

Correct. The spacer will lower the offset number.
