haha yes the 2 pictures are of the same supra. I'll find out the offset for you, that offset has the deepest lip but my mechanic told me that his offset would be horrible for traction (my mechanic also owns a supra). The sizing for the rims is 9 in the front and 10.5 in the rear. 245/35/19 in the frotn 275/30/19 in the rear. I'll find out the offset for you as soon as i can.

That's funny you mention that rst, when you look at my car in person, it looks like my car is being launched. The front is a lot higher than the rear. The rear looks like it's already dropped haha.

D- I would like to get some new leather before i replace my bumper, i really can't stand the ripped leather seat i have. After that i'll decide either turbo or bumper =x.

its most likely 19x9.5 as volk doesn't make even widths in 19s

as for traction... thats cool... if i ever do anything with this car.. the last thing it'll need is traction... cuz i plan to go sideways

hey man PM a member named nextlevelcoupe, he did a full leather conversion on his 95 coupe (front and rear seats with preforated leather). he could probably steer you in the right direction to a shop.

PM me with your neighborhood, I know a shop on Atlantic and Rockaway Blvd that did some pretty nice work as well!

haha yea i saw the group buy for the leather but being low on cash right now... i can't get them.


D- My mechanic will help me do all the work for cheap, it's just the parts... It's still pretty expensive lol. With the money on the parts and labor i spent on the car already, i can almost buy another 5 spd


Ah well girls spend their money on prada, gucci,etc.. Guys spend it on their cars, it all evens out..
