^it actually is an R32 conversion, back will be done too. GTR grill is up in the air, but certainly a possibility and paint is a def, hopefully in a month or two.

Please don't convert the back! Coupe rear looks bad ass with that.

i also agree with these statements. don't F*ck it up. it has potential. i actually don't mind an r32 front on a coupe. in my opinion, the coupe has a nearly identical bodystyle and is perfect for that front end. just so long as it flows and is done cleanly. if you do the tails, your car will then suck. right now, it's rad.

Just to throw another opinion in there, I think you should get those half red/half clear tail lights. I think those would look better then the actual skyline tails.

ive never seen a r32 front on a vert before

that has so much potential

it just needs the right paint color to set it off

95KA-Turbo,

I do Auto-X every once and a while I drift alot more then I Auto-X but only when I can afford to buy new rubber. I would love to go for a crazy stretch but I do not want to sacrifice to much handling you know.

The Fronts are a 19x9.5 +3 and the Rears are a 19x11 +0 offset.. This is a Z chassis so I have a pretty large wheel well to play with. What would the members of Zilvia and this thread recommend I run? 235/35 in the front? and a 255/40 in the rear? I dont think a 235 would stretch at all on a 9.5 +3 :/

I would LOVE pictures of some stretches on same widths..

You're in luck because this guy just posted this on my local forum.





20X9.5 +13
20X11 +6

He did not post his tire sizes, but with the amount of stretch going on out back I'd say he is running at minimum a 265, and most likely it is a 275/30 out back and I'd assume a 245 or 255/30 up front.


You need to be running 35 series side walls, you have 19s, a 40 series side wall will just be too tall.

Wow Call that luck that looks beautful. There is only one problem.. I am on Citytire Online and They only make a 235/35/19 or a 245/35/19 and for the rears its only 255/40/19 or 265/30/19

Is 275/30/19 an option? I'd do a 275/30 and 245/35 set up personally. You could also go with a 235/35, since you have a more aggressive front offset. That guy said he has minimal rubbing up front but there is some rubbing...so maybe you should just go for the 235/35.

The tire height chart I found puts 275/30/19s at 25.50" and 235/30/19s at 25.48" so they would look proper on the car and not look all weird having a super skinny tire and a super fat one.

Im more on the borderline of 235/35/19 with a 10mm spacer in the front and a 255/35/19 in the rear. What do you think?

I would say you most likely will not need a spacer. Look at the white car, your front wheel will be 1cm further out then that and your rear will be 6mms further out. As long as you dump the car you can pull off those tire sizes.
