I believe the center bore needs work, or at least it does with R33 GTR rims.

@steveP will know

Yep, AKKO is right. The hub will need to be bored out before you even get them on your car.

Once that's done, you'll need to roll the guards. If you're not willing to do this, they'll never fit.

After that, the maximum tyre width you can go is 235/40. A 225/40 would be preferable and will fit easier.

Then make sure you car is low enough so they somewhat tuck into the guards.

Hey mate this is how 34 gtr wheels fitted to my pfl on lowered springs. Tyres were 225/40 and gaurds rolled. As you can see, car wasn't super low so more low would've made for a nicer stance.

Downright best rims ever.

My Legnum was sitting on Tein springs, 225/40/18 tyres, rear guard rolled but no trimming of the flare. occasional scrub on big bumps or with load in the back.

Gumtree usually has quite a few. There's been a few sets near me for 1200-1500

Are fakes of these common at all?

The headlights came from Japan like that for me. Discussion in the past led me to believe they were NZ base model lights.

Not really that I've seen...there are the Grenades which look very similar but not QUITE the same. But they're still not really fakes of the 34GTR rims, I don't think.

^ Grenades are rarer than the GTR rims in my experience.
