Default 315/35/17 on Supra TT rear wheels....

.....looks like this.




I know the size is not optimal, but the tires were only $104 a piece at tirerack.com. I love the way it looks. I just need some 15mm spacers for the front and I'll be set. So, if anybody is wondering if 315 wide tires fit on the back with Supra wheels, the answer is yes. Thanks for looking.

No rolling at all. My car is only lowered in the front. I cut one coil off of the stock springs in the front because the front sat higher than the rear. That one coil lowered the front perfectly to me. I'll probably get some springs/shocks soon.

Thanks for the compliments guys. Now if I can just keep this thing from feeling loose while riding down the road.............I don't know how to explain it, but it just feels weird. It doesn't have anything to do with the tires(it did it with the stock wheels also) and I just had an alignment done. It's like the back-end is back and forth trying to stay straight. Much more noticeable when it's raining or the road is uneven.

I'll take some more pics during the day so you can see how wide they are from the back once this rain clears out of here.
