Sideways Nissan Skyline Turbo Group 5
#15

Am due to possibly race this tomorrow, and I was still not happy with the look of the wheels ..... so purists - look away now.

I just fitted it with ScaleAuto Sebring alloys. 
The rears are the largest available at 17.8mm x 10mm, and I fitted a high profile NSR Ultragrip 21.5 x 11.5 - which are more like 22.3mm on these big hubs before truing.
The fronts are 16.9mm x 10mm, managed to stretch some Slot.it PT07 zero grips over the fronts
 

The end result are feet which I like the look of, and fill the wheel arches better.
The 0.5mm offset sidewinder pod has also been raised 1mm with spacers between the underside of the pod logs and the top side of the chassis.
If I was fussier, I would have used a 1mm offset sidewinder pod ... ah well. 
I am yet to lift the front axle ride height, to drop the nose for the larger front wheels. - I'll do that when I have finished truing the tyres tonight.
That will lower the front stance about 1mm, and bury the wood guide I just fitted, pretty much full depth.
