supra_ufo Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I just bought 4 x original supra wheels with almost new tyres (cheapo brand) in silver with the intention of spraying them gun metal, I was in London the weekend just gone and the wheels were in Shrewsbury and I live in Yorkshire. Anyway i took a trip via shrewsbury to pick them up...got there eventually (4 hours later) and hauled them into the A5. I was very happy with them.... Just checked ebay tonight and saw a set of wheels from york (less than an hour away), they were in gun metal so had to buy them.... just won them for half the price as the ones above...so now i have 2 full sets of wheels and what's best is I don't even have a supra....YET! lol Ive got the bug! A crappy pic of the car can be found attached...First mods are wheels and head lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra_ufo Posted November 7, 2012 Author Share Posted November 7, 2012 You will need o/e wheel nuts as well This is a j-spec TT so it should go straight on? The first set of wheels maybe from a UK spec, the 2nd set are from a J-spec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that the wheels won't fit but nearly all non stock wheels have nuts with a tapered face, whereas the stock wheels need flat faced nuts.

No they shouldn't be that expensive, I just found them to visually show the difference TT aero isn't from Norwich way is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
