Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

[jdc4357]

Question..
Just ordered some wheels that are 17x7.5 +40 up front and 17x8.5 +41 for the rear. I have eibach springs on an 88. What would you recommend for tire size. I was thinking 235/45 up front and 245/45 on the rears but I am worried about rubbing.
Thanks,

Mine is a Work Equip rim.

F - 18"x9" - 255/35 (+38)
R - 18"x10" - 265/35 (+35)

I like those wheels where did you get them from? Any different but similar?

225/45 for the 7.5" and 245/40 for the 8.5". You're far from rubbing.

Those are Work Equip wheels. A close knockoff is SEVAS S-STAR

I'm looking for supras with the Stretched tire look, I wanna see what my options are, can you write what your offsets and tire sizes are.

17 x 9 24mm in the front, 17 x 10.5 27 mm in the back? Proper tire size to make them fit?

With a roll you can probably do 245 all around.

They'll fit and look pretty awesome. 265 might take a little work. You'll have to roll fenders and lower the car.

 

[BorHor]

^ yup I think it can work too

 

[SupraJDS]

Im okay with rolling the fenders (if a fender has surface rust is it safe to roll?) but will they not be able to fit if the car isn;t lowered? (I recently lost my garage and have to park the supra in my horrible drive way)

Awesome can't wait to get them finally I found a set I want!

Thanks guys,
Josh

It will looks really bad if you don't lower the car.

 

[SupraJDS]

Well for the time being thats fine with me, gotta save up for a paint job!

Front: Volk GT-C 18x10 +30 235/40/18 Falken Azenis RT-615
Rear: Volk GT-C 18x10 +24 245/40/18 Falken Azenis RT-615

In retrospect, I should have put 245s up front as well. The 235s are too stretched and slightly rub the inner fender at full lock just as the 245s would...I thought they would clear.
Pictures were taken PRE Coilover adjustment so it will be a little bit lower but not much.

 

[BorHor]

^ very very nice fitment! Very clean flush look.

 

[HIDPLANET]

Thanks bub...I took a lot of your informative thread to calculate what I wanted.

 

[BorHor]

^ at least some one put it to use

Your car looks amazing. I'm not a fan of the stretched tire look, but the body and the rims themselves are very sexy!
