Really are stunning guys. Great choice of wheel.

 

If you manage to get that fitted on just a roll or cut on the rear I will have to pinch the sizes and offsets of you ;)

 

Its taken me a while to work out sizes and offsets for stock arches, but if my calculations are correct we should be okay. Ive seen a very similar size and offset fitted to a supra in the US forums.

This is what helped me, if you scroll down to the red supra. We've gone for the same offset on the fronts, but gone for ET49 on the rear on a 11.5J so we can have a 315 tyre. The only other difference is he has 19" rims and we've gone for 18".

I wouldn't overly worry about polishing them as they are brand new. But they will need a good degrease to make sure any protection products will bond correctly to them. As said above, the poorboys is ok if you get a good few coats on but the Gtechniq would do a far better job of protecting them even if a little more costly. But make sure the surfaces are ultra clean and dry before application.

Is that Gtechniq a single use bottle? As in, you need the full bottle for one treatment?

 

It is available in 15 and 30 ml bottles, I would order the 30ml and have a little left over. It could end up being a little tight with the 15 depending on wheel design and how sparring you are with application.
