The problem could be the offsets on the wheels. I believe standard offset is about 50, mine I think are about 35 rear and 40 front. My fronts do catch a bit on full lock. An offset of 17 means the tyres will stand further to the outer edge of the wheel arch. Considering the fact that my tyres are 285 rather than 275 and there's still an inch of clearance at the rears, and the ones you're looking at will stand out roughly 18mm more than mine, I would suggest that they might just fit. Best bet though is to ask the manufacturers - after all, they have plenty of Supras out there too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 114.3 sounds right but Supras have 5 bolts so a 4 hole rim simply will not fit. You need 5x114.3 Best to check if this is the case or if they are offering either option. Aftermarket rims can usually be made in lots of different bolt patterns to suit many cas so this may be just the rim options available. Either way give them a call to check. Sorry no idea on the offsets for the Supra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibrar Jabbar Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 The rears will definately not work. 4x114.3 PCD is found on some Nissans, Hyundai's and is a very rare fitment. (It maybe a typing error!!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(It maybe a typing error!!). Why do you say the rears will definitely not work Ibrar ? Is that because of the offset ? Do you know what the maximum offset is that you can fit on the rear, as I'm interested in getting some wheels which will 'stand out' to the max myself...

fredm Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 The offset is too small. 30mm would be the minimum for that wheel. Also a 275 / 35 tyre would be too tall which will affect the speedo. A 275 / 30 would work. Have a word with Ibrar at Pro Alloys I'm sure he will get you a good deal on any wheel you fancy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my wheels are an offset of 35mm, and there is still an inch gap between the outer edge of the tyre and the inner edge of the wheel arch - ?

But they may be something silly like an 8" rim. a 9.5" rear with a 17mm offset will foul the bodywork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, my rims are 9.5" x 18, the same width as the ones being discussed ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 Not sure you should have an inch gap then? You could always try them;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
