Default Who had Supra TT rims on their GS?

Hey guys,

If I remember correctly, someone put on a set of MKIV Supra TT rims on their GS. Obviously, the rim fits because their are Surpa TT brake upgrades available for our car.

My questions for you are:

1) What are their widths? I've seen conflicting data of the front being 17x8.5 or 17x9 and the rears being 17x9.5 or 17x10?

2) How did they look on the car?

3) To the best of your knowledge, are they lightweight for 17" wheels?

Thanks!

That was me and they are still on my car... The sizes are 17x8"F and 17x9.5"R...They are suprisingly light weight, but I dont know how many lbs.
I dont have a pic as of now. Ill try to take one so that you can see what it looks like. Tiny

Cool, thanks Tiny, I thought it was you...

Sure, I'd love to see some pics of those rims on a GS...

What is the width on the stock GS rims? 8.5" all around?

I'm thinking the Supra TT rims may be a better upgrade than the stock GS 17"s because of the staggered rims and ability to fit the Supra TT brake upgrade.

They're also cheap as hell....go for about ~$500 a set on www.supraforums.com


I'm wondering if they're lighter than the stock GS 17"s too because the Supra TT WAS a performance sport car...
