foggy147 Posted March 31, 2017 Author Share Posted March 31, 2017 This is exactly the look I am going for - XXR 521, what size would I need to achieve this look: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spunkmeyer Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 (edited) Rough guess 19s with a thin profile so maybe 35s fronts and 30s rear with whatever width and offsets needed to fit the tyre size and offset. But the backs are gonna be Edited March 31, 2017 by Spunkmeyer (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foggy147 Posted March 31, 2017 Author Share Posted March 31, 2017 Maybe something like these: https://www.lkperformance.co.uk/wheels/stuttgart/6068-ST5-SILVER-POLISHED?vehicle=1343&front=18x8.5&rear=18x9.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foggy147 Posted March 31, 2017 Author Share Posted March 31, 2017 Think these would be a winner, 18" 8.5" fronts OFFSET 42 and rear 9.5" offset 45 Can these be photoshopped in, if they look good will be ordering: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spunkmeyer Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Those specs will sit inside the arch imo Search through build threads to find Wheel size/tyres specs/ETs you want first then find wheels that fit that look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foggy147 Posted March 31, 2017 Author Share Posted March 31, 2017 My aim is just to have them at the very least nicely in line with the arch or ever so slightly sticking our (mainly at the rear) with the fronts in line with the arches. Could anyone confirm how these would suit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foggy147 Posted March 31, 2017 Author Share Posted March 31, 2017 Could maybe use something like these to push them out a bit more if needed: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Universal-Wheel-Spacers-Adapters-5x114-3-25MM-Toyota-Supra-Avalon-Camry-MR2-RAV4-/191512004534?fits=Make%3AToyota%7CModel%3ASupra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 As you car is with Chris Wilson why not chat through wheel offset, sizes and the use of spacers with him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foggy147 Posted March 31, 2017 Author Share Posted March 31, 2017 Its a whole new world to me looking at alloys I've never really bothered in the past.but it's taken me that long to get into a Supra again that i want it to look the way i want it to look. Definitely want to keep the stock look so mainly just nice wheels to set it off. The above picture of the bronze car is pretty much how I'd want mine to look. Love that style of wheel but just want to make sure they will sit nicely inline with the arches and not cause any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foggy147 Posted April 1, 2017 Author Share Posted April 1, 2017 Thanks Broomie excellent Photoshop skills there! I'm still really feeling the Stuttgart wheels, just look nice and fresh with the gunmetal. The only thing I'm not sure of is the offset, 42 fronts and 45 rears, are they going to sit to much into the arches? The car is on standard suspension.

foggy147 Posted April 1, 2017 Author Share Posted April 1, 2017 Also the car has LS400 front brakes do you think there would be any clearance issues with these callipers on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spunkmeyer Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 LS400 are slightly smaller than UK so should you find a post confirming they fit UK - then your fine. Plenty people have/had these style rims so it's likely they will not foul UK brakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
