I like that :)

The 17's look an inch too small on a Supra but look perfect on an MR2.

They seem to fit better than other shots I've seen of MR2s with Supra alloys - I have some pictures at home, will try to post them tonight.

hard to tell on that PS....(looking blue and all)
could be different offsets, different tyre sizes...

but if they sit like on that red one, should be cool.

tho i cant remember if i read that there was a bit fo work to fit those, not sure, on the guys orginal thread (on the US site).

from what iv just read below, i cant see a issue fitting std supra wheels to the mr2,

16''
16x8j front
16x9j rear
pct 114.3

i have fully ajustable tien suspension also so this could help with arch rub ect

You'll need to run spacers both front and back to fit the supra wheels as there a +50 offset. 15mm spacers are required all round to fit them.

I have a set on my car for track use all be it the earlier 16" ones but the widths and offsets are the same 8" front an 9" rear. I'll see about getting a few pics stuck up over the weekend

Them wheels REALLY suit that red MR2, love that mod!

and that rear quarter mod is something ive never seen before, but is very nice, kind of brings the curve of the rear screen to the side windows, i like.

yeh, i reckon the wheels will suit your 2 mate, although i do like the ones you have on there already :thumleft:

Mmm, I can't find the pic I thought I had, it was a yellow one with the Supra 16's on, the others don't show much, one is the car above without some of the mods I think...

Image

The others I have are of AndyF's car with my 17's on (they still need paying for over 3 years later ;)) 255/40/17's IIRC, no spacers.

Image

Image

It's the front end where the problem lies, you need a spacer to clear the suspension but this makes the wheel stick out too far.

Annoyingly the car still looks nice with pink wheels, even Ronal Teddy Bear alloys wouldn't look out of place when the rest of it is so nice :)

Sorry but your wrong the 17's on the rear fit no problem with 255 if you go 265-275 you need 5 mm spacer on the rear..

The fronts need 10mm spacers min to fit

I have a set on mine

I did consider cutting and welding the fronts 9/16" which makes them purrrfeccctttt
