18x8.5+35 & 18x9.5+35 w/ 245/40/18 & 275/35/75 tires
275/35/75? don't think a tire that big would fit properly on a 18" wheel :biglaugh:
Well ive finally purchased my new wheels this week and got them fitted up on my turbo-a supra!
They are veilside andrews
18x8.5 +37, 235/18/40
18x9.5 +40, 265/18/35
just a couple of shots, bad quality and lighting through my phone sorry
What you think??? i'll try and get a few more nice ones

I'm gonna have to steal some of your guy's ideas when it comes time to lower my car and get wheels/tires.....after I get it running.
Yeah I was thinking the same. With those offsets you can go a step or two larger in the rear.Sawbladz;915648 said:

My dad has the same size wheels on his r33 skyline and it handles very well, so i thought i might go the same..
Aww i didn't know that!
they look kind of strechy so i could have fit like 285 on the rear or something?

275 or 285 would fill it out nicely. I would also go up to a 245 in the front. It's not like the car looks bad as it sits. This is just some constructive criticism for the future when you need to replace those tires.

Awesome! thanks mate, ill keep those sizes in mind.. i should have asked you guys before buying tires lol!! Cheers
Not really a wheel fit question, more of a tire fit question:
Anyone running large diameter and width tires while slightly lowered? I'm looking to get some 295s at about 27" diameter (compared to stock 25"). I am lowered about 1". Anyone running a similar tire and what offset or backspace are you running? Thanks guys.

Yes, they look great.
The front looks different. Factory 17 x 8?
Old post, I know.

They will fit, your engine just won't have the grunt to get rolling.
question. i looked through much of this thread , but haven't seen anything about an 18x8 and 18x9.5 , both being +43mm offset.
anyone ?
anyone ?

18x9.5", w/ a 43mm offset is pretty good. You could run a 285/30, or maybe even a 295/35 on there w/o any problems. The 18x8 with a 43mm offset, will however, look a little "sucked in". The ideal offset for an 8" rim is about 30mm. I would get a good set of 10mm H&R hubcentric spacers, and run a 245/35-18 tire on it. Should be just about right.:icon_bigg
