Wheel Questions

[Justin]

I'm going to take a look at some wheels tomorrow... so far I know

Lug Pattern : 5x114.3 (4.5 in)

Stock Offset : +37mm


I need to know whether the supra is hub, or lug centric... or is that only wheels that have that classification?

Doesn't matter...just get some concentric rings and you're good regardless.

Okay!

I love how SM is getting to the point where I can post a question and get a reply so quick!!!

Right lug spacing, and offset is good too. I think the Supra center bore is 61mm, or 66mm,(?) you will most likely have to use hub centric rings(inserts). Don't mount the wheels without them:nono: also, if you can find the metal ones, much better than plastic. Any wheel width from about 7.5", to 10" will be good on the rear with those spec's you put up. 8's, 8.5's, or even 9's, up front should be okay too with that offset, however it is always best to test fit them first, before you buy!:icon_razz
What wheels were you looking:icon_bigg at? if you don't mind the inquiry?
Les Schwab has a multitude of metal hub centric rings.

I have MK4 NA wheels on there right now and the front rub, so I'm definatly going to avoid that I'm thinking about ~9.5 in the rear, and maybe 8 up front? somewhere in that range.

Inexpensive, sexy ones! I have no idea

I'm going to check Les Schwab, then Discount, they're right across the street from each other. not even sure if i'm gonna buy any, just checkin it out! I'm tired of rolling on wheels i'm not happy with.

Should I wait till I drop it to get some wheels? Would it make a difference?

 

[cjsupra90]

the hub center is 60mm on the supra (MKIII and MKIV)

waiting to drop the car would not make a difference as long as you got correct wheels (i.e. offset and width) to begin with.

You might have some clearance issues after the drop that weren't there at stock hieght. Offset is really important!
