these actually look pretty good on the SC, similar to the oem soarer wheels once offered

Ok I have looked everywhere for this info and it is not anywhere on here. So I am thinking of getting these 20 inch rims http://www.performanceplustire.com/p...y=6#prodAnchor
But I am getting crossdrilled and slotted rotors and want to know will these fit with the LS 400 brake upgrade +38 offset. I have looked everywhere including intellectual.

You need to know the face/disc type, which will give you the instant answer, but those type of wheels usually don't tell you. Anyways, I will say it will barely fit and if it won't, a 5mm spacer would make it work.

What does everyone think of this setup...
Front - 18x9, +30 offset, w/Supra front brakes (4 piston)
Rear - 18x10, +38 offset, w/Supra rear brakes (2 piston)
Megan Racing coilovers
Stock fenders (trying to avoid it, but I'll roll if I need to)
What size tire should I run on this setup? Is this gonna need a fender roll or will I be ok? Thanks!

sounds like a very good setup...

you can run either 255/35-18 or 245/40-18 on the front, the 255's will probably rub without a roll

on the rear, 275/35-18, rolling will depend on camber settings and how wide the tire truly is...

Hmm..I was thinking of a 265/35, but I don't mind the 275 idea either. I was gonna do Advan Neova's all the way around, since they make a 265/35 in them, but I'm not against the idea of a drag radial either, since they don't make the Neova in a 275. The next step up is a 285, which is too wide for me. I was mostly concerned about the fronts, since the offset is +30, I wasn't sure if there needed to be a fender roll. Oh, and let me know what comparable tire suggestions to the Neova anyone has.

my dad has an 87 starion with the larger staggered rears, very rare. i should take them from him for a bit to see how it looks.

Sorry for the crappy pic, but this is me test fitting some 20's on my sc300, I was running out of daylight and had to adjust the brightness. I will get a better shot with the wheels when its brighter this tuesday.



Tire size 255/35/20

Its a FWD offset, cause these wheels looked sunken in on a ford explorer.

They do not stick out at all. I ran out of daylight so I didnt try one on the rear.

The tire clears the wheel wells by maybe 1/2-1/4 of a inch when turned with all stock suspension! Im going to see about removing some of the plastic to see if I can get them to clear with ease. With the tire straight and me pushing down on the car as hard as I can the tire does not rub! I didnt try it when it was turned. That will be my next test.

just get the chrome MRR's pretty good price.. I think D-2 got them and they do clear BBK

Ok question on this set of wheels. I like very aggressive set ups but do not have adjustable camber. I went fender to sit between the tire and the rim edge with a huge stretch. I have 1.5" spacers in the rear on OEM wheels now and its is not remotely close to what I want.



18x9 +26 front

18x10.5 + 19 rear

I'm looking for fitment a touch less aggresive than this

thanks to Squidd for building a sweet car and letting me steal his picture

Can I get by with grinding the fender lip and pulling a little in the rear?

What tire sizes should I be considering (remember stretched and agrressive)?

Sherwin (CL Member: Cherplex) ran very similar offsets on his RacingHarts (19x9 +26 F and 19x10.5 +26 R). On stock rolled fenders, he was able to tuck 245s up front and 275s out back. If I am not mistaken, he on the stock alignment rods as well.

Given less offset in the rear, a narrow 265 or damn near any 255 should work. You absolutely will have the ridge of the rim sitting beyond the fender.

Up front, your options are pretty endless. If you stretched a 225, you could probably even space the wheel to make it fit just right (since you like things so aggressive).

Check out Sherwin's Magazine shoot thread in the main SC forum. It should give you the right idea as to the fitment you would be looking at with the set up that you have suggested.

I agree with those sizes 225 front and 265 rear
to give you an idea these my car is rolled drop on espelirs
245/35 19x10 +21---285/30 19x11.5 +29
To match this fitment you would need a 20mm(18mm actually) spacer in the front

To match this fitment you need a 3mm spacer in the rear

Well here is another crappy picture.... **note to self** never let friends take pictures of your car**

I will take pictures with my camera tomorrow!!

20's with 255/35 tires.

Putting the wheels away for winter soon, so I can get the correct tire size.

The front driver side tire rubs every now and then on the fender, cause the suspension sits lower over there due to weight. IT IS NOT HURTING THE TIRE.

well since my last post wasn't nearly as aggressive as i thought here is what I dream of. Are these even a possibilty without buying the BN sports or wertex ridge widebody at the same time. I can use a real fender roller anytime i want so...

Front 18x11 -7
Rear 18x13 -37
