If you are looking for the stock look, and really care about new wheels, I would go for it. I myself, like the stock look and they clear my TT brakes. However, I think nearing 1000 dollars, you can just get really nice looking aftermarket wheels.

Another option is getting used ones and paying someone to refinish them to "new". Probably a much cheaper route. I got mine for around 400 with tires, but they need about 100-200 dollars of work to make them pristine.

I've seen a complete sets with tires ranging from 400-600 so $225 each does sound kinda step but then again they are brand new.

I got a set of polished TT wheels for $470 shipped. A full set of nice Supra TT wheels -chromed or polished- will run you well under $1k with healthy tires.

If you are considering the TT route, there is way better value in the used market.

I am confused.

I was simply telling him what I purchased my wheels for. I was not trying to plug a sale. My Supra TT Wheels are on my SC to stay.

Nooooooo, I had your polished TTs envisioned on my car in my mind for a few seconds...then..."My Supra TT Wheels are on my SC to stay."

It was a nice dream while it lasted.

they are the silver ones. I don't think their polished or anything. this price includes free overnight shipping. but no tires. better look for used I guess.

I'm buying some silver stockers to put back on my Supra & I'm taking the LE37K's off and putting them on the Soarer. So if any has anyone to sell, plz let me know. If they're cheaper than $400 ( w/ tires, I'll buy em!) I found a guy here w/ some but they're not in perfect condition & I want nothin but the best for my Supra. I feel bad for robbing the Volks! lolol
