Hi guys/girls, Title says it all but I was wondering if there was a decent website that sells wheels, OEM Supra turbo body panels/kits and decent exhausts????

 

eBay seems to be abit hit and miss for me and Google isn't doing me any great luck (unless I'm typing something wrong in the search).

 

Many thanks.

I don't plan to chav my car up however as general nosey question, what is the biggest wheels you could put on these cars without modifying/changing the arches?

 

I am assuming you mean by diameter size? This will depend on width & as Westy mentioned offset.

 

18" is the best between comfort and handling, most wheels no work to arch is needed so they go straight on.

 

19" I believe you can get on with min work to rear arch, think it just needs to be rolled slightly. Though hopefully someone can confirm as I have never ran 19" wheels on the Supra.

I had 19"s on mine when I bought it. They need a roll on the arches. My fronts were fine as they are wider arches than stock, but the rears rubbed something chronic (they were 295 on the rear mind, the previous owner obviously didnt have a clue!!), so I took the 18"s off my NA to go on the twin in the end.

 

Plus, in my opinion, anything bigger than 18"s will affect the ride comfort and handling for the worse.

 

18", +35 offset, 8.5 front (245/40/18 tyres) and 9.5 rear (275/35/18 tyres) is what I run, and I know a fair few others do too.

 

Hope this helps, and welcome to the club.
