Default My MK3 came with alloys that seem impossible to find!




Someone help me out here. I've damaged one of these, and I'm looking for a repacement of just 1. However, from a bit of research, it seems like the MK3 Supra never came with those. So what are they? And where can I get a replacement?

Thats crazy, I have never seen those before! They had to come on a MKIII because the MKII Supra was four lug.

They may be from another car with a Supra center cap installed, thats weird.

Sorry I can't help, if I see one I will let you know! Good luck.

If the damage isn't too bad, go to a rim shop and have them fix it.

Some people are now telling me that they could be JDM. Or worse.. they're possibly TRD or aftermarket company that made them exclusively for Toyota.

I'm getting some odd responses from people

They are rare, and the ugliest wheels ever put on a supra. Not worth their weight at the scraper.

Heh, I like them because they're the only ones I've ever seen with "Supra" actually written in em.

And, TurboSupera, thanks for the advice. That's what I think I'll end up doing. I went and got a quote today - $180 But I guess it's better than forking out the $580 for a set of new mags. The one rim has basically done what they call "buckling".

(Prices I quoted are NZ$, so they're probably 3/5th that for US$).

Glad to hear......I was about to say that that was a rip off if you were being charged $180.00. Good luck on the fix.

Heh, it's not THAT different. It's US$110. And to buy a brand new pair of the most BASIC alloys it would cost me US$380. That's without the tires.

I'd rather spend the US$110
