I have those wheels too and I'm still waiting to lower it the correct way. It's hard to wait but you'll get used to it. Looks good!
I know but i have no patience thats why i can wait hey when u put on ur wheels did u use a hub centering ring or did you just out them on and go ????

For sure man only a few months away for the Teins thanx

They are the 18" I didnt know these style wheels came in 17" ? ne who i hear alot of ppl talking about the rear wheels spacer for better off set I dunno might go with it
Good call on cutting the springs, free lowering ftw until coilovers come. It's a good plan. My friend was stupid and bought 3 different sets of lowering springs and none of them went low enough so he ended up getting coilovers finally, spent just as much on the 3 sets of springs, haha...I'd reccomend checking out the Powered By Max coilovers, unless you're set on having EDFC. Tein stuff is overpriced.
Don't cut the springs, man... Ride with it a bit higher and be comfortable, don't have to have a crappy ride just to be seen
Man I sould of listened to some of you guys.....
i finally did cut the springs and well here is how she looks now....
Dosent look that bad BUT it rides like crap I cut one to many coils off so i am going to fix it this Saturday no biggie. Still debating on a good set of coil overs or a good spring shock set up no sure any input
im not really into spending extra cash on stock wheels... when where are nice aftermarket wheels for a little bit more which also fit better... but whatever floats your boat... looks ok
for the price, the Tein Basic Coils for the Supra are not bad...bought them when I needed shocks and like you I cut my springs but I wanted something that could be adjusted

I did not know they sold a set of 18" aftermarket wheels for $400 plus i loke things OEM

looks great just get a real suspension.
also agree with above, unless you got a hell of a deal on those i wouldve spent a little more for aftermarket.
Like I said above i think $400 is a good deal for 18's i think...... ne who i know i want a real suspension but moneys tight right now thanks

well I like these IS wheels because they are offset the GS wheels are all the same size.. thanks
TIRES !!! add a set of tires to that price and ur at just about 1K. Besides other things are more important right now such as brakes and suspension components, and when I do go and get a set of aftermarket wheels i want something that i cant afford right now and i am wiling to wait....
