Spacer advice

Recommended Posts

is your car a wide arched one? if its not your wheels are probably around 18x7j wide which is pretty lame for a supra, especially the rear.

 

as mentioned above best to get proper fitting wheels, failing that a minimum of a 25mm spacer will bring it out an inch which should be more flush..... stick a ruler against your rim and see how far 25mm will bring it out. :)

If you're sticking a 275 35 tyre on there and don't want to roll the arches you'll be pretty close so I'd do nothing until you have some miles on the new setup...you could get a 5mm spacer in there but that means fitting longer studs.

 

If you go 265 35 then in reality you could just about get away with a 15mm spacer as the tyre shape frees up more space than the (relatively fat sitting) 275 35 on a 9.5" rim.

 

If you are happy to roll the arches then you can go a little more crazy :D
