If you don't mind me asking, what is your rwhp (approx.), and how is your traction from a dead stop?

I like the look of 20's as well, but I would be afraid of the ride quality with that slim of a tire. I just bought 19's for my Supra the other day. My question to you guys is what tire size should I go with front and back? My fronts rims are 8.5 inch wide, & my rears are going to be 9.5 inch wide. What size tires do you guys recommend? I was either thinking 275/30/19 or 285/30/19 in the rear, & 235/35/19 in the front? I am also selling what I have seen in the picture below, PM me if your interested or if you want more information about them! I will also put an ad in the classified section for the wheels I am selling.
Oh & I don't want to roll the fenders, if that makes a difference. I am also installing TIEN coilovers as well, Thanks guys!  sorry about the blurriness of the first picture Last edited by pwpanas; 01-08-2013 at 11:10 PM. |

You can't run oem width rear rims and oem width rear rubber unless you're running oem rwhp. I know a guy that tried to run his stock rims at BPU on a MINT/PRISTINE <20K miles '98 Mkiv Supra, and within hours he ended up smashing it sideways into a big rock in a ditch. That's just ONE example of many. Every single component on the ENTIRE MKIV SUPRA TURBO has been spec'd and designed by Toyota to work together by highly qualified automotive engineers with decades of training and experience. You just can't go bumping up the hp and expect nothing else NEEDS to change. When you go BPU or beyond, one of the things that NEEDS to change is the rear rim+tire width. In turn, when that changes, the front rim width and front tire width must change together. It's like a symphony - you can't go replacing a violin with an amplified electric guitar and expect Beethoven's 5th to still sound right. If the rims you think you "want" don't come in the right size, then don't buy them. It's that simple. There are LOTS of companies making LOTS of styles of rims that do come in 11.5"+ widths. Please let me know if you need help finding what you're looking for. After you figure out how wide the rubber is that you need to run on the rear, then you can pick the front rim width and the front rubber width in proportion.
