Skyline rims on a FC???
Well I have seen pics of R32 rims on a FC but do you need adapters and how is the fitment any rubbing. Also will the bigger(17s and 18s) from the nismo line fit. I am just courious becuase the wheel selection on my car is well annoying. I dont like bling so that is what got me into the darker rims. And then I saw the pic with the r32 rims and I had to have them. Just courious.

When I was in Japan I bought a set of r32 gtr wheels from a shop that had them on there fc. The size of he r32 gtr wheels are 16x8 +30 all around. They are made by bbs and are forged. They fit very nicely up front and out back. I also had a set of nismo wheels on my fc for awhile. They where the LM-GT2's. They where 17x8 +35 and 17x9 +38. They fit fine also with 225's up front and 275's out back.

They should work just fine if the fitments above are correct. Because the centerbore of most AWD, RWD nissans is like 66.1 and FC is like 59.6 or so, that area will work fine and would have been the only limiting factor.
The 16's sound PERFECT. **** now i want a set so i can get rid of my FD wheels and spacers, reduce more unsprung weight on the GTUs.

LOL be sure you get the GTR rims not the GT-s rims from a skyline. The GT-s rims are skinnier and also heavier I am pretty sure.

The only problem is finding a set of R32 Skyline GTR wheels. they would make perfect track wheels. With 3 mm spacer you should be able to run 245/45/16 all the way around.

I can get the R32 wheels all day long for about $500 for a good track set(a little beat up). They are awsome looking thats why I am planning on ordering mine as soon as I get my next pay check

my car has r32 gt-r rims on it
they look very nice, especially against a black car, fill out the front guards completely
they are pretty easy to come by in australia, 32 gt-rs were sold here in limited numbers, and there is heaps of 89-90 imports
however mine only just fit, and thats with tein coilovers
without coilovers i doubt they would fit

yeah id say so
i have 225 bridgestone potenza g3 tyres all round
and the fronts are literally like 1mm (dunno what that is in a/f, not much) away from the spring
without coilovers they wouldnt fit
this tyre is a little wide tho, because of the rim guard on them, i had other 225s previously without a rim guard and there was more clearance
