I know an SC/supra can take up to 315s in the rear- have 315s on my dawg and I've seen someone with CCW classics fit 315s with cut fenders.

I'd personally go 19's but when 20's are pulled off, they look sick.

So I say go for 20's and do it right

Yes Andy, Mr. Wheel guru! Can't wait to see what you've got up your sleeve for your SC! We all know it's going to be the baddest wheels to hit the streets of South Florida...

Can we get a hint/preview? what will they be 20 X 12's???

Carbon fiber???

In my opinion, it all matters on where you live and the roads you travel on.
I envy my West Coast members. They can drop their cars 2-3 inches, and never worry. About snow, and extreme potholes.

Here in the East Coast, we have bad unforgiving roads, and terrible weather.

I had 18's that were too small, then I've tried two sets of 20's, (which gave me the "DONK" look) without a kit, and now i'm looking for the perfect set of 19's and then I plan on getting it kit'd up.

Here's my word to the wise:
(92-96) 18's-19's lowered, 20's are too big without a spoiler kit
(97-00) 19's-20's lowered is cool
(92-96) must have a kit to pull off 20's

I think that look/style/color/shine is as important as size if you're looking to put on 20s. So basically, quality... not quantity. I have a 95, no body kit, stock height, and running 20s, and I don't think they look out of place at all.

I'd go with neither 19"s or 20"s. Get 15" 'wheels instead like the original SC300's came with!
