I got a 91 supra twin turbo R from japan... Yes, RHD. I had a manditory safety inspection today and failed. which means i cant plate my vehicle until i do. The first thing is that the rims i have on there now are 17" BBS rims.. i dunno the model, but they have a odd tire size, 255 40 r17 on the back and 255 45 r17 on the front. I thought i'd be able to just get tires for them seeing that they failed the inspection.. but was i ever wrong.. They cost about 300-400 each on special order cause nowhere around here seems to have them... Now, to make it easier i thought i should start looking for some factory rims. Does anyone know if candian or us model supra rims will fit a jdm model? This is my first question..

Secondly, will i be able to use usdm ball joints on a jdm supra?

These two things are what i need to pass the inspection. If you have any suggestions please let me know as i only have 1 month to repair them before being recharged the 85 $. Thanks for your time.

TT, nice find. how much did you pay for it?

dont hold me to it but i do believe the u.s. and canadian spec rims will work, dont know why they wouldnt, and the same for the ball joints

Cars are identical minus the electronics, engine and Steering setup. Find some sawblades.
