Skyline R32 alloys?

R32 GTS-T are 6.5 x 16, R32 GTR are 8 x 16.

Offsets work fine (got a set on mine), not flush but better than standard.

Just need some custom spigot rings to sort out the centre bore.

Look on the likes of Driftworks and eBay and you'll see sets come up regularly - obviously need to buy two sets / odd ones to get a staggered set up. The GTR alloys are forged so beautifully light, the GTS are cast so heavier, but that's no bad thing up front.

p.s. will dig out some pics of them on mine...
