  1. hi mate mine are 18s not sure on the off set ? you got yours yet?

     

    Ahh....that would explain why the 19" wouldnt fit my car then :D

    They wouldnt clear the eurospec calippers...

     

    So we tried just about any wheel the dealer had in stock! :D And finally we settled for this one in 8,5x19" and 9,5x19" :)

     

    Ill post pictures of them on the car as soon as the weather clears up :)

  2. I can remember there was a big debate as to whether it was his own voice or Jackson's. Hmmm memory going it was back in 1980 ish

     

    Ditto :D I remember playing the extended mix cause the MJ singing part is more stripped down on that version...and therefore it was easier to make out if it and was him singing or not :D ...yupp....im deffo old too! :D

  3. the lip on these wheels is stailess steal so no laquar problems to be had. yes i have a jap tt but they would clear the uk breaks to . and mine are 8.5" and 9.5"

     

    Thanx :) Ill give the wheels a go later this week and see how they fit :)

     

    Ill snap a few pics and post here...that is IF i can find my bl*** digicamera wich has been awol since i was in agia napa :D

  4. @lpher, whats your budget buddy? maybe someone here maybe able to advise you on a better wheel for your money.....

     

    To be honest...im getting this set for "silly money" as you guys so fittingly call it :) Hmm...ill put it this way...im paying the equivalent of 4 decent tires :D ...and this deal also includes decent tires! :D

  5. no there cr*p mate had a set on my scooby was always haveing problems with flats where the rubber was comeing away from the rim and within a year all the laquer was peeling off and they looked shite as they was carroding

     

    Hmm...ill have to keep that in mind then... Ive established a kind of mutual deal with this dealer so there souldnt be a problem for me atleast if problems araise...but thanx for telling me about it :)

  6. Thanx for answering so quickly guys :)

     

    that they might not clear the large front brake calipers?

     

    Its seems they clear allright...ref. "supra matt" :)

     

    Usually heavy and very soft alloy so easy to destroy.

     

    I will ahve to take my chances then, wont i? :)

     

     

    They are heavy wheels, not the best quality out there but half descent for the money. They are budget wheels tho.

     

    Yeah, i know...but my budget is a bit limited these days aslo...so its this or nothing :D

     

    hi mate ya i got theres on mine nice wheels and well built . but heavy tho and yes the dish is deeper on the back set

     

    Ahh....excellent! :) ...what exact sizes are your weels then? The do look nice :)

     

    the fronts and backs look the same width in the pics? look nice though

     

    Yeah...i noticed that too...

     

    the ones in the pic look like he has the 9.5" front and back

     

    Confirmed :)

  7. Ive gotten a REALLY (and i do mean a REALLY!:D) good deal on a set of these wheels

    http://www.bkracing.co.uk/aspbite/alloy-wheels/gallery-wheel.asp?ID=51

    ...and i was wondering if there are any other Supra-owners that have tried these before?

     

    Im thinking 8"x19" and 9,5x19" in gun metal grey...wich should suit my Anthracite supra very well? Oh...theyre 38mm offset. So not at all unlike the TTE-alloys ive had on the car till now...

     

    Heres a few pics of these exact wheels on a mkIV Supra...in what i think is 9,5x18" all round..(i think the chromelips are different sizes on 8" and 9,5")...not shure if the spokes are gun metal or black though.

     

    So...what do you guys think? :)

  8. "These might come in handy with the amount of rain the buggers get" :D

     

    Probably a good thing the mkIV wasnt sold as new in scandinavia then...it would have had firehose-size washers on the front then i suspect! :D

  9. I can confirm this too :) I tend to use this forum for the odd question myself...and appart from the obvious...LHD/RHD-thingy...they are all the same :)

     

    On that note....i wonder what the Toyota-guy who ok'ed the washerheadlight horns for you uk'ers was thinking?! :D
