I'm really having a hard time deciding. I'm looking at these two sets of wheels.

I'm really thinking about the 17's. But they stick way out compare to the 15's. I compared the 15's wheel specs to my SSR's and are pretty close on wheel sticking out, but will fill in a lot on the inside. I looked at the rears and there is a lot of room there. Kind of worry that it may be too much and hit the springs. Help me people.

*I know this is too extreme and a lot of people is gonna b*tch but I'll make it work.

Here are the measurements. My current rims are front: 15x8.5 -21, rears 15x9 -27.

According to 1010 wheel calculator:
fronts:
17x9.5 -38 4mm more inner, extend 30mm outside
15x10 -20 20mm less inner, extend 18mm outside
rears:
17x11.5 -50 9mm less inner, extend 55mm outside
15x12 -6 59mm less inner, extend 18mm outside

in my opinion i like the 3-Piece Etoile brand 455C's they just go better with the supras body lines but that's just me.

That's the one I was leaning more toward. I also wanted to fill in the inner side of the rears which the 15's would do. But I just got done searching for tires in 15's that wide, only Nitto's 555r offers that size. So I guess I'll have to go with the 17's.

i thought the pana's were to pricey for the way they looked the 17's are sick!!! and way cleaner than the pana's.

Thinking about doing this look now with those 17's. Meaning the wide body, not the logos.

SSR Formula Mesh. Don't know the size on those, looks like 15's. I have three sets of those. One's for sale right now. You can find my pics on here.

[83zed&supra]

if you do that wide body the 17's will look much better than the 15's .
how much are you selling the wheels for?

Thanks for the help 83zed and danny. I just sent payment on the 17's. Can wait to get them.

the scub radius on the front tires would be to much wont handle very good unless you go with a taller tire!!!!!!

These will be going onto the Supra. I don't have any other cars that will produce the HP needed to move these bad boys. Of course there is going to be some major mods. Good thing I live in Cali where anything can be done. Also live very close to Toysport and as you can see from their Celica, it can be done.

Saw those on eBay awhile back. They have signatures of a team on one of the lips, right?

Sure widebody is necessary. Cant wait to see the final product!

Yes they have the BRE racing team's signatures. It doesn't mean much to me though as they are mainly a Nissan team.
