rim sizes

suprascoot · 07-02-2007, 02:57 AM

I've been thinking about buying this really nice set of rims but not sure if they're going to fit. They are 18x8.5 fronts with 20mm offset and 18x9.5 with 25mm offset for the rears. Im not sure if the offset for the fronts will be enough to keep the tires from rubbing so if anybody has some rims arount this size let me know how they run. My suspension and everything is still stock. Also if you think spacers might be an option.

what kind and what size of tires do you plan on wrapping them in? and i dont think spacers are needed since supras are pretty wide unless you go for wide body kit

you will most likely be fine with that set up i seen a guy run 17x10 rear and 17x8 or 8.5 not to sure i know its 17 buh he had more then enough clearance for his rims and tires

i was thinking 245 for the fronts and whatever will fit for the back... think its really nice having wide back tires... makes rotations impossible though.

They would fit but they might be sticking out from the fender a little bit. Try to get as close to a +35mm offset as you can get.
