Fitz Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Right, I'm still looking for a decent set of 17" wheels as that's the most my suspension will allow to sit under it comfortably. Looked on many a website and 18" and 19" always pop up but hardly anything on 17". If I do find a place (and there are a few) that sell 17" wheels/tyres they do not do the staggered fitment like is needed on the supra. Any Ideas where I could get some?

Scott Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Cheers Jamie, will give them a look. Ah cheers scott, you wouldn't happen to have any pictures by any chance? They are the same as those. 9" rears, 8" fronts iirc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 How low is your car if you can only get 17's on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Right, I'm still looking for a decent set of 17" wheels as that's the most my suspension will allow to sit under it comfortably. The diameter of the wheels should make no difference to the ride height of the car. With the correct tyres fitted the rolling radius of 16", 17", 18", 19" wheels should all be the same. The side wall depth of the tyre would be narrower on the 19" compared to the 16". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Rays wheels and Weds Sports make some very good quality, lightweight wheel models. If you want prices for any particular model drop me a pm. http://www.rayswheels.co.jp/indexe.html http://www.weds.co.jp/products/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 They need a refurb so £100 plus postage would do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a quote from Paul at Whifbitz for Tein Superstreets inc. Uppermounts fully fitted for £920. So I'm guessing I'll be going down there sometime soon.

Fitz Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 well the parts were £815 something but thats for the set inc. uppermounts, without uppermounts they're around £660 IIRC. I'd be worried about fitting suspension myself. Wouldnt mind doing it if I had someone who knew what they were doing helping me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be worried about fitting suspension myself. Wouldnt mind doing it if I had someone who knew what they were doing helping me. I was quoted 500 without topmounts and 630 with iirc. The price for fitting is really good then. I thought you were getting charged £300 lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
