Hi,

will 19 x 8.5 in the front and 19 x 9.5 in the rear fit on my supra?
What offset would be the best and what tire size?


These would "carshow" rims as I may be getting sponsered...

30-32 in the front 30 in the rear... they will sit pretty much flush.. will have a bit of rubbing issues on hard compression (on the front), but will look good (carshow rims y0).. could even go more offset w/ a slight stretch tire to give it an even more aggresive stance..

Im already running Tein HA's and Whiteline sway in front and Tanabe in the rear. Thats the stiffest sway bar combo available. Only other option, would be to up my spring rates since the wheels rub the upper fenderwell under heavy compression.

damn the fat mkiii pigs! lotsa body roll... I'm not familiar with tein ha springrates though.. I would assume near the standard 12/8 of most coilovers

45 will fit, but they will stick in.. wont be very good looking imo.. theres always spacers though

aslong as i wont rub....

so 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 both with 45 offsets will fit fine? I can alsways get spacers after...

245 35 19 or 245 30 19

265 35 19 or 265 30 19

Would be the optimum combo. The overall diameters will be very close to one another. And the tires widths are perfect for the rims widths you want to run. Unless you like stretching the tire like some guys.
