Wheels

As with steering & suspension, Grip is important. - The greater the grip (especially so on the rear wheel drives) the better traction, so it holds you on the road.
Nissan "gave" (more like insulted!) the Skyline a hideous set of thick 5 spoke alloys - pictured below

Now I have 18"x8" TSW Thruxton's with 245/45/r18 Avon ZZ3's - No probs so far - pictured below

Now for the Wheel alignment settings - recommended by Whiteline for a lowered R33GTS T.
