Congrats on the new wheels, i picked up a mint set locally a while back and have never looked back, i think they are a good size without being too big. they look good and are even a factory OEM toyota part. I am on NF210 lowering springs and stock supra TT tire sized, i like the way it looks and the first day i put them on i got a compliment from a guy in a 240sx at a stoplight enjoy the new wheels!

I dont have the rolled fenders. I have the metal lip on all four corners removed. Then I flattened the metal lip smooth with the fender. I think I may run either the 285 or 275 without a doubt.

Can someone post pictures of their setup with spacers and without from the rear and sides? All the ones I have found is tooo farrrrr away.

Man, now you have me worried about my car. I had no choice but to run spacers with my wheels because my LM reps wouldn't clear my BBK
What spacers? MM? dropped on what ?? Any pictures from the sides for front and rear???

Thank you man!!!

I have the TT calipers on the front now. I upgraded mine as of yesterday.

that kit is only like 39.99 and i'm sure you can get a simular kit localy. all you need is a drill. it's the way to go. i'm almost tempted to go do it on a piece of chrome and show ya the difference but i dont have any rusty or scratchy chrome cuz i have the kit.. i feel a write up coming.

supposidly, if you can get a similar product like the Bull Frog Rust Remover at local auto parts or boat supply stores. you put it on the trouble area and leave it on for like 30 mins and it'll wipe off, use a micro-fiber cloth to reduce scratches. but the polish kit will knock everything out even the scratches. use some anti-rust wax/gel to keep it from coming back.

In those pics, I'm not running any spacers. tires are the sizes i stated earlier. I'm lowered on Stance coilovers pretty low, but no where near max.

here is one from the front, but the ground dips a little, so it looks like my car is lower then it really is

With this look, I believe I can roll with this look w/o spacers. Here is one of my favorite pictures with them installed. Sorry it is not an SC, but you guys get the point...




Just absolute cant get no better than this.... One of my favorite color combo's. Thanks to everyone for the uploads, if anyone has more and cares to share, please post up.....

Not my car, but I am trying to see what it will look like on my 1992 with a moderate drop and spoiler...

So far one of my favorites. It looks like he has the Lexus chrome caps, but after looking, I like the ones w/o even better.

Back when I had chrome TT wheels. Stock 98 suspension with no spacers. I forget the tire size.



This thread makes me want another set.
