Modification notes

  • R34 GT-R runs a square setup from factory (same width front and rear) — stagger is for RWD, not AWD
  • Stock 18x9 ET30 with 245/40R18 — 18x9.5 ET30 is a clean width-up OEM+ swap; 18x10 ET25 pushes ~19mm further out
  • ATESSA AWD system is sensitive to tire circumference mismatch — always run square tire sizes
  • A 35-40mm drop adds the negative camber that tucks the tyre top under the guard lip — more guard clearance than stock for a poking wheel
  • Trade-off: at very low ride height watch inner liner / full-lock rub — 18x10 ET25 is the sensible street max
