So I mounted Sportmax wheels on my car....
Don't look too bad at all... way better than painted stock MKIV supras lol.
Now I need to drop it more and that will be done thanx to K-sport coilovers (maybe 2 more weeks-still in back order)
Wheels: Sportmax/XXR 502
Sportmax/XXR Wheel Pics
Fronts: 18x9.5 +35 225/40/18
Rear: 20x10 +35 235/30/20
Fronts fit suprisingly well and wont need to roll the inner edge of the fender even after I drop the car 1.5 more, where on the rears I might have to roll the edge to drop it 1 more inch.
The car sits on Tanabe DF210 springs and it is still a nice drop... but I like it LOWWERRRRR!!!
Pics of car coming up during lunch!
EDIT:
Pics from my phone, will post better pics once I get it lowered and with the JDM bumper:
How it was before with coilovers and Wedsports:

looks good man, i just had a question about the sportmax wheels. i dont know much about the brand so i was wondering how good are they? cuz i always see them on craiglist for crazy cheap, so it makes me question their quality. im not in anyway tryin to diss ur rims lol they look great, im just tryin to get some info cuz if i dont get some gs430 wheels i was thinkin about some sportmax ones i saw on craiglist.

cheap as in quality? I wouldn't say so. They are cheap because they are mass produced, so the price is low. I had them on 2 track cars and they took a beating... a beating I wouldn't give to any other wheel lol. If I was you, i would get them if budget is tight because they don't look BAD, but I wouldn't brag either because I have sportmax wheels lol. My car will eventually be VIP so Im saving for wheels: these where given to me for a payment on a debt so I can't complain lol

I have the JDM bumper and don't think it makes a difference compared to stock. The only reason I got it was to accommodate the front lip or else I would of just saved the money to do something else. Get a wing, roof spoiler, or even a lip wing. I think that would be more noticeable for you. Just my opinion.

Wald GS: I am getting a devils euro lip kit that's one of the reasons i am getting the bumper
vindedreal: I got them as payment for a debt with tires; i think with tires (falkens) this setup would run you about 800 to 1000 brand new.
wowitztai: 1st of all the wheel sizes where like that when i got them and I think a 20 in the rear will help me get the wheel inside the feder well without going that low while keeping the frons low but not too cambered... you'll see what i mean when i drop my car more (waiting on coilovers to get here)
