Unconventional

Before I buy wheels and tires I would like to see some opinons

this is what I'm thinking. Its already dropped, but its not low enough, so I have short stroke struts on order from an MR2 and I'm going to cut my front strut tubes down to lower the coil-sleeve, and add camber plates (all on the same order and its late) the rear I installed an adjustable perch that still has some low left in it.

Then because I want to ride this car low and bring it on a track it cant be slammed on the body on the floor, it has to remain reasonable lol I was thinking of going with a staggared XXR 513 wheel set up (the only wheels that will cover my BBK in my budget range) and cambering it a bit, I already have a camber kit installed in the rear. There is a reason for the uber heavy kinda cheapish XXR is that if I end up in a sand pit or drift into a curb I wont cry when my mag explodes, so no ****** please.

16x8 0 offset in the back (will need spacer)
16x7 +15 in the front for staggared effect (might need small spacer to clear BBK still, and for flushness)

Falken azenis 912

245/50/16 rear
225/50/16 front

Thorowing this around for the moment, what you guys think?

looks good 50's seem a little to big haha idk tho just my opinion ...

[stanced_supra]

you know what the problem is though? They dont make them in 45 profile

I'm stuck with 50s for that width or I get skinny tires, and thats gay on this car....

i'd go 8's all around, i wouldn't stagger with a 7in wide front. Plus if your going to auto-x then why limit yourself like that.

[stanced_supra]

the 0 offset doesnt sit good in the front....

let me see if I can get you an example

this guy obvioulsy doesnt have any suspension work done yet, but look how odd the 0 offset is in the front. These cars are made weird, the difference of track from front to back is visible so if you run 0 on all 4 its almost looks reverse staggared.

I would go 17's on that car, something like 17x9 and 17x10's doesn't sound too crazy. Just throwing that out there I don't have a clue about offsets for that car but Im sure someone can chime in.

[stanced_supra]

you dont find that 17 might get rid of the old school feel of the car?

I just got my photoshoot uploaded this morning! Dont be fooled by the title, I have to get them to fix that asap, it should rear 5mge for now and I'd add a lawl

Sound like E30's. Because of the camber when you lower it, you are gonna need spacers for the back, if you run a square setup.
But if you run a staggered; like 17x9 / 17x10 you are best of running the same offset all around. Seems its the same with your car, not because its build "weird".

And 17x9 / 17x10 would look sick with some 215/35 & 225/35.

bro i love how your supra sits right now. the xxr's will look good on it

I like the meaty tires

[schroedin]

Keep those wheels, get smaller tires, and go lower. IMO it'll be perfect after that.

Looks fantastic, gotta love old school Toyotas and Nissans!

throw a spacer in the rear, problem solved
