Please keep in mind you're driving a high horsepower RWD vehicle, especially after you take it to bpu+++ and beyond. As such, your first criteria must be to *proportionally* upgrade the *width* of the tires beyond stock. Styling, diameter, and even how they look lined up with the fenders are all secondary considerations. The oem rims are 8" wide on the front and 9.5" wide on the rear. An example of a 'bad' upgrade (one that I see over and over again) would be 10" wide on the rear and 9" wide on the front. This would increase the width of the front tires by a full inch, but the rears by only 1/2"??? ...doesn't make sense.

Interestingly enough my JDM Supra's stock wheels are 16x8 in front and 16x9 in the rear. I wonder if the people using 18x9 and 18x10 are using rims designed to be upgrades to the JDM models. Volk japan recommended 18x9 +40 and 18x10 +43 for me.
