SupraAyf Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Can't be certain TBH mate. They will clear the radius issue but I'm not certain if they will clear the curvature of the spokes. We really need someone to come along who owns a set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraAyf Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 If you buy them and they don't fit then you could use them as plant pot stands at that price!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j1mb0b1 Posted September 26, 2009 Author Share Posted September 26, 2009 If you buy them and they don't fit then you could use them as plant pot stands at that price!! hehe I know they are going for a good price and they are so nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 It says WHEEL FITMENT: Size: FRONTS 8.5x18 5x114 ET32 REARS 9.5x18 5x114 ET35 What does the 5x114 mean and the ET32 and 35 ? the 5x114 is the stud pattern (supra fitment is 5x114) The ET number is the offset, the lower the number, the further they'll stick out of the arch. et 35 on the rears with a 9.5 inch rim will be right at the edge.

j1mb0b1 Posted September 26, 2009 Author Share Posted September 26, 2009 (edited) the 5x114 is the stud pattern (supra fitment is 5x114) The ET number is the offset, the lower the number, the further they'll stick out of the arch. et 35 on the rears with a 9.5 inch rim will be right at the edge. so they should fit but would need rolling ?

Nic Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Just looking at the design of the spokes and the deep dish my money would be on them not fitting. Impossible to say just from the sizes and offsets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pistonbroke Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 so they should fit but would need rolling ? There are people here that run that offset without any issues. But if your car is lowered, or you plan on lowering it in the future, you might want to budget for rolling the arches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
