Default OMG - I found my rims... but WHAT Disk!?

I think since Work offers some good variables in offsets I can get what I really want.

These are the wheels


(Yes I have ready all hundred pages of the wheel thread multiple times etc... I just want to finalize this...)

This is a very important decision and its a must to get this 110% correct.

Now this is what I am looking for...

I needs to fit Supra TT brakes Front AND Rear.
2.5" - 3" of lip in the front(62mm-75mm)
3.5" - 4.5" lip in the rear (87mm - 113mm)
Needs to be...
18x9 with a 235/40/18
18x10 with a 275/35/18
Dunlop Direzza's - These have a thinner sidewall, so that extra few mm will allow a better fitment.
The Fenders will be SHAVED.
Needs to be "flush". Slightly poking out is okay but I remember I want to run a 235 on the 9" and a 275 on the 10".



Here is a chart


Im trying to figure out if I can get away with A disk or I need an R disk. I am not sure if a Supra TT Brakes will fit a Standard A disk.

This is what I have picked out, but please put your input in.

18x9 + 18 R Disk (65mm / 2.6" Lip) Big Brake Face
18x10 + 18 A Disk (96mm / 3.84" Lip) Standard Brake Face


Thank for your input. I REALLY appreciate it

R disk is what you need for the front! its has a more convexed face to clear the caliper! i had an R disk on my Work Rezaxs to clear LS430 brakes

O disk for the rear! trust me it will look much better and fits with ease

O Disk will fit Supra TT in the rear?

There seems to be a 7mm difference between A and O disk. Would that be enough?

hmmm never had expirience with rear BBK? do you know how much wider the calipers are to stock?

if unsure..then you can run a O disk +11 rear to compensate for the 7mm difference
