Digital Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 I have a question, maybe someone knows. I have a set of stock 17 inch Supra wheels. 1 of the front wheels is slightly different in the middle behind the centre-caps. I mean it's a totally different design arround the holes where de bolts go. Are there differences between stock 17 inch wheels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrosixfour Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 There are fins on one wheel and not on the other, yes? I believe one design is pre-facelift and the other to be facelift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 The centres are the only difference, concave vs convex - the later ones are concave with the holes in, earlier ones convex with a Toyota logo. They are interchangeable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Posted November 30, 2009 Author Share Posted November 30, 2009 1 has fins indeed! Thanks for the quick reply! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magictorch Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Uk spec has fins and jspec have a smooth hub i think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexM Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Uk spec has fins and jspec have a smooth hub i think? I thought it was the other way around. I don't think anyone is too sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTRickeh Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 I made a thread about this as well: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=179226 It seems two types of 17'' wheel were made, I suppose ours have just been muddled up at some point.

Homer Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 The centres are the only difference, concave vs convex - the later ones are concave with the holes in, earlier ones convex with a Toyota logo. They are interchangeable. I think the OP is referring to the wheel itself rather than the centre cap (which you are of course correct about) Uk spec has fins and jspec have a smooth hub i think? I'm not finding the same. In fact have found there are 3 different fin types on the 17in wheels. I'll try and grab some pics this week of the 3 types. They are coming from jspec, UK and late jspec cars. Each one is different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
