Anyone have wheels this wide on their supra? Im planning on getting a set of 17x9's for the front and 17x10.5's for the rear and i was wondering if i'd need spacers or if the wheels would stick past the fenders requiring to go wide body... anyone?
10.5 inch wide wheels on MA70?

It all depends on what offset they are...
Those sizes might be pushing it just a bit... What size tire are you wanting to run that you need wheels that wide?

10"s fit but 10.5 might be too wide. You would need quite a high offset like +40. Would be tight.
well i was thinking of 295's... might be too wide tho... maybe 275.... not sure yet... they have a 27mm offset for the back and 24 for the front. Planning on eventualy putting wide body fenders front and rear on the car but wanted to know if i could pull em off w/o the fenders for now.
Yea a 10.5 would fit. But you'd probably have to stretch a smaller tire (275-265) to fit in the stock fender. Of course with the right offset (probably ~ +25-30 with a coilover).

really? Iirc my 10 +35 is fairly close to my coilover as it is.. Thought I do have 1-1.5* of camber in the rear though..
yeah, coilovers will be something else i'll be looking into later on... planning on a stand alone befor coilovers. Have eibachs and KYB GR2's right now. So its possible to fit em on stock fenders? I got the 295 idea from a co-worker. Has a 1970 charger w/ 15x10's on the back and he said he used to run 295's but they would rub so he dropped em to 275's. I want something wide because i fear full boost on the factory 225/50R16's.
You know what I got it wrong. When I helped Duane get the right sizes to fit the max tire size he did 17x10 +38. So to get the same inner clearance you will have to be at the lower end of +32 or so for 10.5, that also means you will have to stretch or do a really good flat roll to clear the fender.
flat roll? to what? the inner lip of the fender? Streching the tire isn't a problem. We have a beat sitter at work so i can strech the tires but as far as im concerned, the wider the better.
Mine is +38 rear with a 10" rim. I had to run 265/30/19 which is stretched but any wider it would hit the arch. I am on cusco coilovers
17X9 front with 245's and 17X10.5 rear with 275's can be done.

Sorry I don't know what the off set is.

i run 17X9s +30 all the way around with 275/70/17s
no fender liners in the front, and roller fenders in the front nothing touched in the rear

10.5" Mustang Wheels? Those offsets sound like mustang offsets. I looked into that and I decided against it. I think its possible but your tire might be sticking out of the fender. Those replica wheels are cheap anyways so just go for it if you really want to run big tires.

i have seen the corba wheels. personally dont like the look they stick out to far. 10" -10.5" your still running the same size tire why not just go for 10's. its your car tho so..

because i plan on going wide body on my supra... dont mind that they stick out... that will be fixed in time... im just thinking that with the upgraded power my supra's gonna be making after the build im afraid of breaking the tires loose at full boost and possibly loosing control of the car.
