2) Oem specs are 8" front and 9.5" rear. That's 84%. 84% of 11.5" is 9.68" (close enough to 9.5"). So 9.5" width fronts match 11.5" width rears.

...this was my first rim upgrade. I ran 9.5" oem rear rims in the front, and 11.5" widened oem rear rims in the back.

I dont want to have to trim my fenders, or roll them if thats the same thing,

if I can stick with an 11 and not have to roll my fenders thats what i am after,

If you don't mind me asking, why don't you want to trim the rear inner fender lips on your Supra?

I've done this mod on at least a dozen Supras. It's easy, the results look fantastic (i.e. practically invisible unless you know what you're looking for), it's just as strong (really!) and (of course) you can fit 315 rubber inside afterwards.

I also had the fenders rolled on my Supra (this is before I started doing the inner lip trimming), and the results were not nearly as good. Although 315s did fit afterwards, the process put so much stress on the fender that the fender panels got slightly bent. As you would expect, this really bugged me...so I eventually got it corrected. I'm just telling you about this so you know that 1) I really do have a lot of experience with this, and 2) rolling and trimming are VERY different procedures. Please let me know if you want any more info on trimming and I can tell you step-by-step how to do it easily and effectively with no need for experimentation or figuring things out on the fly.

what's the proper off set for a supra, these are what i'm looking at,
does positive offset mean they will stick out?

I don't think they'll fit properly but I'm not sure. The proper offset for oem-width wheels (8.0" front and 9.5" rear) is +50mm.

Offset is all about the position of the hub mating surface relative to the center line of the wheel...so no, a positive offset does not necessarily mean they'll stick out.

Here's a diagram that may help:

well they fit on the car fine, but they do stick out a little bit in the rear and a tad bit on the front. I don't know if thats bad or not, they rub a little bit on the arches but won't the coil overs allow me to correct that? Those are installed tomorrow. Here is a picture of the old & new,

Yes, most coilovers are height-adjustable. However, note that as you increase the height you (usually) also increase the preloading on the spring which may cause (for example) a bit of a harsher ride (among other things).
