Hmmm, I'm a bit color-blind but I'm pretty sure the car in that link isn't anthracite.

Sorry I'm confused now. If the car is widebody already, it already has the necessary fender modifications. Are you talking about modifying the widebody back to stock width?

the only reason i said 19x10 and 19x8.5 is because it seems most supras have that combo......i wanted 19x9 fronts.and 19x10.5 for rear...but if i can go biggger without modding, that woudl be cool?

Personally, I've never seen a high-horsepower Supra running 19" diameter rims on the rear that has good traction. I'm sure everyone has heard the long-standing joke "what's the difference between a 400rwhp Supra and a 900rwhp Supra - Nothing! They both run 12s in the 1/4!"...The reason Supras originally got that reputation is when their owners made (imho) stupid decisions like running 19" diameter rims in the rear. So to get back to your question, my firm opinion is that there is no such thing as an ideal tire width for a 19" rear rim...the biggest diameter I'd consider for the rear is an 18...and that's if and only if it's 11.5" wide (as per my recommendation in
bullet #2 in my post above, for a non-widebody Mkiv Supra) AND you can find a 35 or 40 series tire to go on it.
