ask the seller to get a good look at the set of numbers just inside the lip of the wheel for the 17x9.5s to confirm they are the correct size. If you look at the top of your pic, you will see a set of numbers and letters. The one in the pic says 17x8JJ 50. The rears should say 17x91/2JJ 50. If you can get a good pic of the rears this will confirm it.

I dont know if they even make MKIV TT knock off wheels.... do they?

otherwise, those are supra wheels, but I've only seen center caps like that on NAs but the seller probably swapped it out

Is that the actual picture of the wheel in your first post? Why dont you just take a look at the lip of the wheel between the spokes. The dimensions are there and very easy to read. I know 8 and 9 are not the correct widths. 50 offset is correct.

where at ?


I'm quite certain he is just reading it wrong and that its really 9.5 . That is the actual wheel in the first post . All 4 are the same, he is acutally selling like 15 other sets of wheels. Most are mainly for a 240 or so. He is like some legal consultant who works in japan sometimes. Well their was abandoned container of wheels. And he bought it at an auction , and the shipped the wheels over. He has some pretty rare ****, and def isn't makin much of a profit off them.

went and looked at em , and picked em up. They are actually 9.5 . i guess he doesn't know what 9 1/2 means on the rim. the center caps i beleive are meant for the rim. cause they are the same shade , just a different oem option. Hey paco , where do you get those blanks like you were talkin about ? I tried lookin on ebay got nothin.

if anyone is interested he will ship for a pretty good rate ,85.00 for a set of 4 to cali for example, and I can vouch that most of the wheels are spotless clean

That wheel is from a supra.... but an N/A not a TT supra. The spokes are a little smaller and width smaller as well, but they dont look half bad
Good luck with picking them up though!
