bradleyh_15 Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I think they would look nice! I like the deep dish! Might be a kind person come along in a min and do a photo shop for you?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets hope so! I think the grey colour would blend well with the blue, would be good to see a pic of what it would look like, hint hint!

creativename Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 i nearly bought these off ebay the other week, a mate used to have them on his supra, they looked really nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I'm trying one now but the angle of the wheel & car don't match, it won't look perfect EDIT just seen the new pic, thats better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foggy147 Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 Cheers for that Jevansio what do you think? I think they would look very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Cheers for that Jevansio what do you think? I think they would look very nice! Honestly, they look nice but they don't look "great" What buget have you got (and does that include tyres)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foggy147 Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 Honestly, they look nice but they don't look "great" What buget have you got (and does that include tyres)? Im just thinking more spokes would make it look even nicer, i would have a budget of about 650(including tyres) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyT Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 You're right. 5 spokes look great if you've got good looking brakes and hubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Wheel design is a very personal thing, what one person likes another hates. Those are a very middle of the road design, they won't offend anyone, yet I doubt they'll have people bowled over. In all honesty for £650 inc tyres there's prolly not many wheels you could show me I could get excited over, not because I'm a snob , but because on a Supra I'd be nearly included to spend that budget on decent tyres alone.

foggy147 Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 Maybe it might just be better to stick with the ones I have, get them refurbed and like new and invest in some good quality tyres instead what do you reckon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Have you considered the Rota GTLM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooquicktostop Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Push the boat out, sell your wheels and get these Bargain http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=199708 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the ones you have aren't really that much worse than the ones you want, & I guess you're just replacing them as they are nearly bald & you figured why not get a wheel/tyre package & kill two birds with one stone, and you have approx £650 budget, then yes I would def spend most of that on new decent tyres & keep your old wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Push the boat out, sell your wheels and get these Bargain http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=199708 I'd be on the lookout for 2nd hand decent wheels with decent tyres too, those would look stunning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Just hold out for a good set of second hand ones mate, or save a bit more and get a nicer set brand new. Check the wheel selection of whifbitz's website. They're all excellent value for money. And if im not mistaken, Paul is doing a brilliant deal at the moment on some wheel and tyre packages. Ah ha, here you go http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=201056 Can't really argue that, £404 for brand new Ultralites is a steal.

foggy147 Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 I think I shall take that route then and just replace with some good tyres instead, thanks for your help guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Have you considered the Rota GTLM? Don't go for them, they're crap Check my garage for pics if you're interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
