Jamesy Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Wondered if anyone has some nice alloys for sale? Need to be 18" ideally, and something like: 18x9 or 18x9.5 fronts and 18x10.5 or 18x11 rears MUST be very deep dish. Really dont want to sell my current ones but am worried that when they wont give enough traction when the single build is finished. Whats about - im searching driftworks but not much Supra stuff on there.... Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesy Posted June 7, 2010 Author Share Posted June 7, 2010 Anyone? All i've found so far is a set that are perfect but offsets will stick them out way too far: Fronts 19x10, 10 offset, Rear 19x11.5, 10 offset Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesy Posted June 7, 2010 Author Share Posted June 7, 2010 About 2 grand +vat from image. Yeah thats not too bad - £1910 for 18x9 and 18x11.95 Or the cast one (last pic in my post above) are £1550 for the same sizes. hard to tell how "dishy" they are. Maybe they can give details on how many inches the lip is on the phone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesy Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 Ok guys, things are looking up i've found the following wheels. Can someone please confirm the offsets/sizes will work? The offsets are a bit low but ive not gone for the 18x12 wide rim to compensate!! Work VS-KF alloys - 9J x 18 +20 (F) 10J x 18 +26 ® Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No mate just getting it now. Having problems with the order mate it hasn't been shipped yet so adding the fuel kit to it saves on shipping cost. It won't be fitted till next year. The cc getting spanked again ho hum never mind it's only money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesy Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 Also, what would this set up look like? bit skinny??? 17x9" fronts and 17x10" rears et 40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky49 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Nic said to me that he wouldnt advise to go below et30 on the Supra, I havnt got a clue. You have had the arch work done already so maybe it wouldnt be a problem with those offsets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 cheers Rick - looking at the Volks below compared to my current set up it will stick out the front about 12mm more which is good and the rear 4mm less thats without the current spacers i have fitted!!

jagman Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 "Really dont want to sell my current ones but am worried that when they wont give enough traction when the single build is finished." Why do you think that there will be any significant increase in traction between say 9.5 inch and 10.5 inch wheels ? how much more contact area is there? and how much contact area lost due offset errors from stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 i can get a much bigger tyre on hopefully. just bought some 295/18 R888's and i dont think they'll fit my 9.5j wheel mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
