How can your rears wheels not rub? Are your fenders rolled? I have 18x10 +42 with a 275/35-18 and mine rubs. Your setup is way more aggressive. Fill us in.

you need right offset for the wheel.....it's not the wheel size or the tire size..if you got the right offset, the wheel will sit even with the rear fender, but it will also just miss the fender lip....no rub or anything....it's like perfect....and i didn't do anything to the rear fender..still got the molding piece attached on there......i have 30+ offset for rear....

Have your rear sway bar end links checked. In my case, the driver's side endlink was slightly bent and the ball joint boot was also split causing an uneven stance on my car, I bought 2 new OEM endlinks from Carson Toyota and rscott and I installed them in my old garage in about 30 minutes. Solved the issue.

You may also want to do a search for a thread by CL member "howiedoit" where he talks about his endlinks getting hung up on the rear struts (lots of pics), flipping them around seemed to solve his issue and when I installed mine I made sure to flip them to avoid a similiar issue since my car is lowered.

Ron, the car looks tight man, keep it up

it wasn't the endlink...i told my guy to check it and he came back and told me both links are good...it was something else...not sure....

and yes i like the older taillights for some reason...i have 5 SC as my personal cars, and all 5 has the older taillights.....maybe i will switch over to the 97 ones for awhile.....

by the way, i'm selling one of my SC soon.....car will be post in the Vehicles Classifieds this week......

looks pimp... i was wonderin' if i could go 19 inch....

I have the tokico illumina setup for the supra, and it dropped my car 2.25 front and rear.... so my drop is a lil bit more aggressive.

Good look though....
