Guest MikeNSX Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I just installed a new set of Enkei RP03 wheels on my '95 hardtop, and wanted to post a few pictures of them here. I want to thank Harps (Ross) for all his help in this matter. Ross has these very same wheels on his black Supra, and he and I have been conversing via e-mail the past few weeks about how his wheels fit, how he liked them, etc. He even sent me some additional pictures that helped me in my decision. You sure don't get that kind of help from anyone over on Supraforums. Again, thanks Ross...I owe you a few beers and a nice dinner if you ever happen to be in Nashville. I do have a question... I installed the wheels yesterday and now that they are on the car and with the wheel and tire sizes and offsets I selected, I feel it necessary to lower the car in the front by 1/2 to 3/4 inch. I see that I can buy a set of Konis that have two perch settings that can lower the front by 20mm (.8 inches), and also see that Esperil springs lower the front by about .4 inches and that the Tein H Sports springs lower the car 1/2 inch (don't know if they work on an NA though). Any comments on these ideas. I don't need to lower the rear, as there is only about 1 1/2 finger gap between the tire and the body (which looks great), but the front has closer to 3 fingers.

DamanC Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Looks great fella, personally i dont think you need to lower it any more. It will only degrade your handleing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harps Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Looks great bud! (though I guess I would say that ) Was a pleasure helping out - hope you're as happy with them as I am! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MikeNSX Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Thanks for the compliments guys. I still think I need to lower the front about 1/2 inch. Has anyone ever used the Esperil or Tein H springs which claim to lower a Supra by about that much? If so, do you like them? Guess I should change the shocks when I do this...what would everyone suggest? I think the Koni yellows look like a good choice. Any others I should consider?
