Will do, should have them in by Wednesday. The car needs a good alignment anyway, so I'll kill two birds with one stone. Probably put a set of 18"s or 19"s to keep me going til I get the 20"s

BTW, my ARSITO JDM Torsen LSD had some play and didn't want to take a chance of damaging drive train so I upgraded to the TRD LSD now I don't have any week links in my entire drive lines. Should be interesting.....
With the type of power you're putting down, I can't imagine a new torsen lasting long, let alone a tired one. Shame we got the smaller one, the early tt Supra (JZA80) Torsen take a fair pounding

OK, heading down to my local tyre joint tomorrow morning. Have decided to put 19" Work Euroline LS on for the meantime - http://www.rampant.net.au/shop/images/IMG_8520.JPG

Until I can pick up my Auto Couture 20"s

Offsets on the rims going on now are "technically" correct - ie, +40 front and +45 rear - as I want to see how much difference there is in the way the car handles when I put the +30 offsets on. I've experience with my Soarer, that going from +45 offset to a +35 offset, the way the car feels on the road is nowhere near as settled and it tended to follow grooves in the road a lot more. Not pleasant. Will fill you all in on how it goes.

Also have my JZA80 front brake package to go on. Anyone done the rears with the JZA80 2 pots? As I have a set of those as well.
