Westy Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) Was just looking for some help regarding fitment of these wheels please folks. As far as I can tell: 15x10 LowPad with 7.5 backspace will clear 1 pot rear calipers (just) And wanted to know if anyone knew specs of an 18" front in Supra fitment that would fill the arches properly and clear the calipers (UK 4 pot ideally, but if not then 2 pot fronts)!? I've searched on SupraForums but answers aren't forthcoming. Thanks Edited October 14, 2013 by Westy Pic added to drum up some enthusiasm.:D (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattdavies Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Front wheel wise roughly a 18x9 et35 would fill the arch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 Difficulty is caliper clearance...on an 18x9 I think you would need a high pad with around a 6.1 backspace but that option isn't available on their site?? There is an 18x9 Medium Pad with 6.7 backspace (+43 offset) but I'm not confident the Medium pad would clear the calipers!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdavies Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 The other option is to get a high offset and then run a hubcentric bolt on spacer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 Nah, plenty of people run these in the States mate with no need for spacers...I just need to find out what spec wheels they have ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 Anyone!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Worth posting up on Supraforums? As I am sure I have seen like you say quite a few running this setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 I contacted Weld directly mate as SupraForums have no replies either!? Weld said I would need a wide body car and wouldn't listen when I explained that loads of stock body cars ran these!? Most have stated that they just had theirs supplied by Titan and have no idea what their specs are!? Will contact Titan I suppose, but thought I'd get an answer on here tbh.

Abz Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Shame, then again that forum isn't as active as this. I haven't seen hardly anyone here run Weld's apart from Darrett on his 3.4 Stroker beast, he may know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 Apparently the front specs are 18x9 with 28mm offset (High Pad I'm guessing) but looks like Titan are the people to contact as that size isn't even listed on the Weld site!?!
