well if ur ordering a japanese wheel (work, AME, Volk, etc...) just make sure u have a wheel that is medium/high disk at least (NOT THE SAME AS OFFSET).

if its an american wheel company just call the manufacturer and ask if the wheel will fit MKIV Toyota Supra Turbos and that your brakes are a couple mm thicker.

Very true - what I ended up doing in addition to this was asking the manufacturer if the wheel would clear the caliper - they said yes and it did

I appreciate ya buddy. And my roomie in college is from Florence, so we've been up there a few times. I know I-75 like the back of my hand.
