jamesmark Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Do you have the small J-spec brakes? or do you have larger UK brakes? Offset should be as close to +50 as possible, 8.5 front and 9.5 back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesmark Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Well if it is at the moment and you have plans to upgrade then you will have to get a wheel that will support the larger brakes. Offsets vary from wheel to wheel as it also depends on the design of the wheel too. You are best buying from a company that knows exactly what they are talking about.

R Black Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 atm meaning you intend to upgrade brakes? most advertised Supra alloys 8.5 front and 9.5 back will fit with your standard brakes, if you upgrade brakes your choices will reduce by a BIG factor, think the recommended upgrade is to get Lexus 18's as they are a good offset, or stick with standard 17's.

Sorry but there are loads of wheels to choose from, upgrading the brakes does not limit your choice of wheel in a big factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
