'98-05 GS300 Supra Caliper Upgrade- Complete
#32
Just did my TT caliper setup this past weekend and it didn't clear my GS350 F sport wheels :/. After i did everything including bleeding the brakes, I bolted up the rims and it was hitting the TT caliper. I ended up scratching the paint on the caliper after I painted them lol. Luckily, my friend had 8mm spacers for me to put on just to roll around until I get my 5mm spacers in the mail. I ordered 7mm ones just in case Haha. I bought the F sport wheels because I wanted a stock rim but be able to clear the 4 piston calipers. 4GS came with 4 piston calipers but I failed to realize, their calipers have a slim design/frame rather than the bulk design the TT calipers have. Btw, I have the AWD F sport wheel setup. Didn't want a staggered setup, that way I can rotate tires. 19x8 all around. I forget the offset but can be found on the internet. Only difference from RWD and AWD is the rear are 19x9 and maybe a slightly different offset

I did the Supra TT Break upgrade in Oct. One of the best things you can do. Only had to use 5mm spacer to clear 18 inch stock rims. I will add extended studs just to have more tread for the lugs to bite on.

Loving the paint man! I'm excited to do this but i'm still weary about my wheels clearing the calipers.

Thanks, As long as you have 17 inch stock rims and 5mm spacer you will be good with the Supra TT breaks. With aftermarket rims, you will have to check your offset of the rim..

So is everyone in here running supra rotors? I wonder because I have a set of new GS rotors and was hoping i could still use them. If not oh well.
