Rear tire should fit no problem and you will want to get the 35 aspect sidewall. For the front the 245 will work great.

ok im ordering some now, 275/35 for the rear and 245/40 up front, or would it be wise to get a 35 up front two? thank you for your help

Ok theres a cheap set of wheels up forsale locally, thinking about getting them just so I can ditch the saw blades.

They are 16"x7" Enkei RP01's, +35 offset, 5x114.3. Just checking to see if those will fit alright, my guess is thats pretty much the stock fit? Anyone got a pic of these on their Supra?

Look pretty much like this:

If I'm correct, BMWs run a 5x120 bolt pattern. You would have to use an adaptor to run that wheel.

Should fit exactly like the stockers. Will seem to be a little sunken in if the car is lowered.

Car is stock height, well the rear is a little sagged out but yeah.. Do you think that style of rim would look goofy in a 16" on an MK3? im starting to think it would.

I don't think it will look "goofy" but I don't think it will give you the results you want. If I were you, I would look at some of the cheapish 17" wheels with a bit better offset and some more width. It will cost more for sure but in the end I think you will be happier. Plus you won't be spending money twice if you find out you don't like the 16's.

That's what I was afraid of,I run adapters on my cressida to fit the 18's,but I rarely run that car above 80 mph.Not really sure about trusting spacers/adapters at 100+

Would 18x9.5 w/+38 offset allround work? Lowered on h&r springs, what tire size would work?

Thanks,
Jim

Rears yes, fronts no they are too wide especially for 18s and riding on h&rs. I would get 8s or 8.5s for the front if available and run a 235 or 245/35 tire up front and a 275/35 in the rear.

They will fit good with no issues. You can go with a lil bit meatier tire like a 235-245/45 up front and a 255-275/40 in the rear.
