Here is my situation. I found rims in the garage when my parents bought this house in Wisconsin. I have a supra at college in Texas. I would love to fit these rims on the supra, but I don't want to go through the trouble of shipping them if they won't fit.

I read on here supra's lug spacing is 4.5" and thats what these seem to measure as. But then I read there is a difference between 114mm and 120mm which is to small for me to measure atm.

Here is a link to a rim that looks almost exactly like mine. These are NOT my rims, and my rims are definitely NOT orange lol.

You can't tell the bolt measurement based on a photo. Borbet made that style rim in all different lug patterns.

He is advertising 5 x 120, but if they made it in all different styles thats good news.

Well, I guess i need to find something more accurate and find out if mine are 120 or 114 then. Thanks for the post :)

17 inch wheels with a 9.5 inch width. I have a feeling those will fit your car, but even if they don't you can make good money selling them here in houston. I say take the chance bring them down and if they don't fit sell them here. You will get good money for them

That would appear to be a 5x120. They fit BMW and others, but not your supra...

EDIT: Not positive on that, but it's a borbet t which only briefly came in a 17x9.5 with a 5x114.3... They did make that exact wheel with the proper bolt pattern, I saw it on a mustang.

I agree with Whasian, just get them and sell if they don't fit.

can be made to with with the proper adapter, but it also pushes the wheel out a bit and isn't free like the wheels...

you'd make money off of them though...

Wow thanks for all the replies!

I found a 6" scale here and its really looks like 114mm spacing, 120mm is over shooting the bolt centers quite a bit. And I do remember seeing a 3000gt in the driveway when my parents were looking at the house. So they will be making the trip to texas. :)

Now I need to get to longview and fix the 1JZ swap some guy attempted lol.

I will try to get some pics up if the rain stops!

Those look really good. Borbet makes some really nice looking wheels, so I hope these work out for you.
