I love the meisters... I had them on my car for a good 10 minutes. Borrowed them off my friend's supra. The offset fit on his car, but not on mine!

uh oh... i better watch out when i copy supra offsets then...

i remember seeing a gunmetal/grey SC with gunmetal GTCs that had nice offsets in the "what size rims poll" thread...

what were those specs... does anyone know? those had some nice lip/curvature on the back

anyway i can get some curvature on the fronts?

IMO i think it looks better with just the rear having a big lip unless you have widebody.


John i like your blitz more than the second set of rims you had on your car. Sorry to see you have to get rid of them.

John, How strange! I bought my Work Meisters from a Supra owner and they fit perfectly. I'll try to find the offsets, but the rears are 18x10" and the fronts are 18x9".

You should be fine with the standard supra offset. On a 10" rear you'll need a +45 offset. On a 9" front you need a +41 offset. Hi disk if youre running supra tt brakes. My friend wanted a fat lip so he got some crazy offset on his car.

I agree, I like the design of the 03's better, but imo, they are too small for the SC. i wanted to run some 19's plus i picked up the technospeeds for cheap.
