What rims are on it now? Note, the tires are low-profile, not the rims. Oh, and low-profile rear tires provide almost no traction, so that's not the best course of action (depending upon your application).

http://www.mkiv.com/techarticles/par...ned/index.html ...however, if looks is your primary goal then why did you get a TT?  I'm guessing you actually want both looks and performance, so 18s (or at most 19s) should do the trick, as long as you get them sufficiently wide with non-low-profile rubber on the rear to improve your performance too. 11.5" wide on the rear, and 9.5" wide on the front is a good balance with the oem fender widths. Again, do not get low-profile tires on the rear - they should be at least /30s (eg. 315/30R18s). Quote:

http://www.maximwheels.net/ Imho, you want at least 9.5" wide rims up front, and 11.5" wide rims in the rear, with the correct offsets. You can't go wider than this unless you go widebody too. Your wheel's diameter is anything 17" or bigger, based on your budget. The weight (lighter is better), and the specific 'look' of the wheel also depend on your budget. Again, the widths are key to ensuring you have sufficient launch and cornering traction as you increase your Supra's other performance characteristics (horsepower, braking, suspension, etc.).
