Default TT wheels tire fitment

What size tires are you guys running on your TT wheels F&R? i know the stock size is 235s up front and 255 rear, but i have seen 245f/275 rear is this optimum size

My little brother has them on his SC. The widest he has ever ran on them were 255 - FRONT 275 - REAR. Once the rear fenders get rolled the 295s will be coming in for the rear. Also just so you know, the TTs can max out at 305 with alot of crowning. I'd keep the front at 255 or 245 with a low sidewall.

I had 19s with modest fitment. I now have the Supra TT's and love them. I would highly recommend them over the 19s unless the offsets are right on the other wheels. Modest fitting 19's look like you didn't have the budget to buy the proper wheels and all you cared about was diameter. I'd rather sport OEM-looking 17's if that be the case.

I am running 285/40/17 in the rear, which is the maximum allowable width within factory specs. I have 245/45/17 up front as I have heard that the 255 will rub with the suspension without a spacer.

i know exactly what youre saying, i'm looking at the 3pc myia wheels in the wheel classifieds, they look like they fit pretty well to me. i guess i just gotta wait and see.
