Max Rim/Wheel Size?

Hello forum,

 

I'm a new Supra owner here in Tokyo. I've recently bought a 93 non-turbo and I'd like to dress it up a bit with new wheels/tires.

 

Does anyone know how big of a rim I can put on without making modifications to the car? I heard I can put a 20" wheel with 245/35 tires.

 

Any help is appreciated!

Hello!

 

Don't put 20's on , it'll ruin the handling.

 

Quite a few put 19's on , I have. :D

 

19's look great and the handling is okay too.

 

Agreed know a few people who have put 20's on and they've said the car handles like a pig... Saxos will beat you around corners was ones words,

 

Look great for show days perhaps,

But the general feeling amoungst owners is 19in max

 

The ride comfort is bad enough on 18's with a 35 profile tyre,

Also remember when changing wheel sizes get your Speedo chip recalibrated (if you have the later type fitted)

Makes me laugh as well. Do you subscribe to max power?

 

Ive got 20's what you saying :p

 

I wouldnt go for 20's stick to 19's max with a good suspension setup and it will handle just as well as stock if your lucky.

 

I dont like my 20's because they are so wide too so handling is rubbish, I launch off of every bump.
