^^^^^ very nice.. I'm getting the same fitment in polished, probably less aggressive offset too. I love the white though!

Guys, I'm going to be the guinea pig and do something crazy (or stupid). I'm very happy with my 18x9.5+12 up front with my current Varrstoens. I have them matched with 235/40's up front. And now I want to replace my rears with 19x10.5 +15. Yes, I said 19"s! Staggered to a whole new game. I feel that my 18"s out back just look small for the size of the wheel gap.

I've seen this done on NSX's, FD's, and Poopras.

Yep, not uncommon on RWD big body cars, I don't see why the SC wouldn't accommodate. Keep us posted.

Then again, some Supra's run smaller wheels in the rear to provide taller tire sizing.

This guy had 19's and 20's (according to post). Looks pretty good.

It's going to fit fine.. But I would suggest doing a full 19" setup the 18's are just a bit to small for the sc

18's are just fine on an SC. Gives you more room for some nice rubber!

Here is mine on some 18's but I'm on SSR SP3's.

^^ yep, looks good. With a drop, 18's are perfect. Obviously 19's fill the wheel well better but then you cant go as low without tiny tires, and since these are easy cars to upgrade and have traction issues, more tire, the better..

18"s look great up front, but the wheel wells are huge in the rear. That's why I posted my idea for a staggered setup of 19"s out back and 18"s up front. However, I'm not sure how heavy the "rake" will look. I may regret the idea, but I guess I can try.

Default wheel specs


What are your wheel specs? I don't see it in the sig. I am trying to find out if 19x9.5 +22 fronts and 19x10.5 +22 rears fit flush lowered just to the top of the tire on my sc300.
