gordy.r Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 (edited) As per the (new) thread title, sorry for the confusion Just wondering if anyone running these can give advice about offsets and sizes for the Supra and whether they clear UK or big brake kits? Thanks in advance (final edit on this lol) Edited February 14, 2016 by gordy.r I'm just a little lost tonight lol (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I think you'll need spacers to have a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Depends on the rear disk configuration. If you speak to them they will be able to confirm the disk type required to make it feasible. As for sizes/offsets, they are entirely custom, so you can configure them how you wish - whether that be similar to CCW sizes, stance sizes or a more conventional Supra size (8.5 / 9.5 or so).

gordy.r Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 Whilst I've been in talks with Weld for the last few days, I like how the Works are more readily available in the UK than the LM20's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 If Marc didn't have them already, I'd be sorely tempted - they are one of the nicest looking 5 spoke wheels available IMO. Can't be having 2 black Supras in Aberdeen both on Work S1s though haha, so the LM5Ts will have to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordy.r Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 Dont be a sheep Didn't realise these where what you guys had just put on! What offsets and sizes did you go for and do they clear UK brakes? Don't worry, if I was going for them I'd be getting different colours etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry, if I was going for them I'd be getting different colours etc Yes they do clear UK spec brakes, I spent months working out sizes and offsets to clear the UK spec brakes and fill the arches nicely. We settled on 18x9.5J ET37 18x11.5J ET49 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Are those fronts without spacers Chris? They look to be sticking out miles for a +37 offset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bailey Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Are those fronts without spacers Chris? They look to be sticking out miles for a +37 offset. They shouldn't be no, when we test fitted them for the first time we still had 10mm spacers on the front as we had longer wheel studs fitted. This picture is what Lee sent me, in other pictures they sit flush against the arch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This picture is what Lee sent me, in other pictures they sit flush against the arch. That might explain it then. The tyres look as if they have a good stretch on them too, what are the widths of them? 9.5" would call for around a 255 to sit square I imagine?

Mine are 9J front and 10J rear, et35 all round, I needed 15mm spacers on the front for them to fit over the UK brakes, the rears sit perfect with stock arches and no scrubbing with 285-35-18 tyres, front I have 235-40-18 tyres with no scrubbing on stock arches (Car had been jacked up in 2ND pic hence the massive arch gap lol) Edited February 14, 2016 by suprageek (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
