I think it would look good if you have upgraded brakes and all that

What is considered a low profile size? I'm putting 235/45ZR17 front and 255/40ZR17 rear. I'm trying to get as close to Supra TT wheel and tire size.

I went with these Aston Martin 18's and they look very similar. I like them but cannot load pics of them on my car, on this forum for some reason. Anferny pm me you email and I can send pics.
Fronts are 8.5 with 50 offset and Rears 9.5 with 62 offset and 10mm spacers.

Thank you Moretoys for emailing me some pics of your wheels. These look extremely similar to the TSWs but for one extra spoke. There's some thing about odd number spokes on wheels that bring out the lines and curves of our cars.

anything less than 50 (245"50"r18) is considered 'low profile'.

255/40/zr17 are pretty low. the lowest you can go is '35'. what brand tires were you considering?

I would get michelin if I have the money when I get the wheels mounted. Hankooks are impressive. I have them on my car currently. They helped me dodge a fallen couch In the middle of the freeway.

feel free to PM me if you have questions on what tire to run, hankook v12's are nice tires for a nice daily cruiser, i had them on my car for a little bit, those wheels are nice, considering they are TSW's, i am going to assume you are buying from discount tire? they should be able to help you figure out the correct tire size, don't listen to what some people on this forum say, do some of your own research and then ask the forums whether or not the tire size you are getting will work fine.

some people on this forum should be banned! just my opinion, michelin's arent as great as youd think but they do have the smoothest ride.
