Luxluc Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Are you going for 9.5 front and rear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay200bhp Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) yes mate i had 9.5 j on the front with my banded set but were the std rear 50 offset any ideas which size i.e 235/35/18 would be best to optimize front clearance once rolled??

jay200bhp Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 so im thinking 235/35/18 front (would these be stretched to the eye?) and 265-285/35/28 rear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 i had 9.5 on my fronts before with a et22 offset. they were very close to the arch. You'll prob need to stretch a 225/40/18 to help clearance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay200bhp Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 jamesy were your arches rolled on the fronts when you ran those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jay200bhp Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 so jamesy with a good roll and a 225/40/18 will they run? also jamesy did you still have arch liners fitted? or did you use button heads instead of the old bolts that are hex head for more clearance?

JamieP Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 You swapped 11" wide rears for 9.5's Jay? with single turbo power I bet you live to regret that mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay200bhp Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 i know mate but i "hated" the stock look wheel jamie..... had to change them and love the work wheels i bought i usually potter around in the supra and dont really intend any drag runs or anything,what do you think of arch clearance etc? what about ridox front wings to stock bumpers? or something? what widths do you run street jp?

Bailey. Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Ridox fronts would suck with the stock front bumper mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like they are going to be a very tight fit but looking at his pictures they seemed to go on his car ok, maybe ask him what size tyres he ran. My street wheels are 11" wide front and 12" wide rears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
