Duffman Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Does anyone on here supply spacers for my rear wheels to bring them out a bit. They are 235 wide but think they would looks meaner and fatter if they had spacers . What kinds of sizes can you get? Anyone else n here done the same?

tooquicktostop Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Looking at your garage I can see why you want more offset at the rear but spacers is not the answer IMO, I would look at investing in a new set of rears or a new set of alloys if you want to acheive that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoff Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I have hubcentric spacers on my rears, but in all honesty Ive not had a problem at all with handling or the ride in general. They are 15mm Eibach ones which I got from Gaz at envy. Having said that though if you can avaoid spacers that would be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoff Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Can you get 255 tyres on the rears? These are what came on the stock car - 255/40/17:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Budz86 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Personally wouldn't go for spacers. A new set of alloys is your best bet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyT Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 IMO that's gonna be seriously bad. Combo of too small a wheel and spacers is asking for trouble Sean. Invest in another set of rims, no spacers. A common size is 8.5" width on front, 9.5" rear or 10" Get a set that will clear uk brakes for future upgrades.

I have 295's and they fit pretty easy. You just have to get the correct offset. The offset can really make a good looking wheel look great.

The offset can really make a good looking wheel look great. You need 295's mate. Your motor is churning out some serious ponies. Also, USA seem to have the market for custom offset wheels. We have some fans here. Price wise when the have to be shipped is prohibitive though. http://www.ccwheel.com/files/gallery.php?id=toyota#a You can achieve a subtle but aggressive look with the better offsets. I hadn't realized just how much better. http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=429834 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
