Steffen A Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 I have recently recieved my Supra JZA80 from Japan, and i'm sooo happy! I't came with some very cool Wedssport TC105N wheels, but the offset on those are very bad. Front: 9,5x18 ET10, Rear: 10,5x18 ET12, they're rubbing the fenders badly and sticking out too much.. So i am looking for new wheels, and have fallen in love with Work Emotion Ultimate Kiwami in bronze. The sizes i'm looking for is: Front: 8,5x18" Rear: 9,5x18" I've found out that ET/offset 38 is perfect for the rear, but i cannot decide which offset for the front? I can choose between offset 30 or 38, but which one will fit the best? It's running on HKS hypermax coilovers, and i'm not going for any extreme ride height, just don't want to rub the fenders! Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 ET30 will be fine. On my old rims,I had 8.5 ET35 ... and there was plenty of space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syco Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 just curious, but with your current wheels fitted, are the arches rolled. asking as I have some 10j et10 which I was thinking of using, but don't want any rubbing or sticking out from arch.

Nic Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 just curious, but with your current wheels fitted, are the arches rolled. asking as I have some 10j et10 which I was thinking of using, but don't want any rubbing or sticking out from arch. On the rear they'd stick out beyond the stock wheel arches by around 25mm, on the front by around 35mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Syco I've attached a picture of how the front wheels line with the arches in front, front size is as mentioned 9,5 wide and ET10. I don't have a similar photo of the rear wheels, but it is pretty much the same problem in the rear with 10,5 wide and ET12. The arches are rolled yes.

So you say that ET38 would be better to choose, than going with ET30 at the front? I did, after hours of searching, find a picture of a JZA80 with what appears to be 8,5x18 ET38 at the front, and i think it looks like it fits nicely!?

Rob W Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 For the front I'd go with the ET30 8.5x18. On my Anteras the front are ET25 8.5x18 with a 235/40/18 tyre, don't rub at all and sit pretty much flush with the arch. Perfect fit IMO.

sebas Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I've got at the front 8,5/19" et 30 all ok, at rear 9,5/19" et 35 all ok. arches are not rolled, but i have standard toyota REAS suspension Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syco Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) On the rear they'd stick out beyond the stock wheel arches by around 25mm, on the front by around 35mm. woh, 25 is a lot. is there plenty of space in the wheel tubs on std suspension as when I eventually get some new wheels, I wanted 10j -11j on rear and 9j on front but I am finding it hard to find sizes by searching as some tell you that there arches are rolled and some don't, then theres the ones were they stretch the tyres aswell which makes it more confusing. Steffen A, thanks for posting the pic, much appreciated, I love white supra's. Edited November 21, 2016 by syco (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steffen A Posted November 27, 2016 Author Share Posted November 27, 2016 Thanks for the help guys! I've now ordered Work Emotion Ultimate Kiwami for my Supra, in the Ash Titan Bronze colour. Sizes i went for: Front: 8,5x18 ET30 Rear: 9,5x18 ET38 I already have 265/35 tires for the rear, and will probably go for 235/40 at the front.
