Surprisingly enough fitting drag packages are a bit easier on the SC than the Supra. My friend had to do what Sherwin did, beat the inner metal work to clear the inside of the wheel and tire package on the Supra. He then pulled the drag package off the Supra and mounted them on the SC with no issues clearing the inside, only a cut fender.

Wheels were Greg Weld Alumastars:
15 x 10, 8" BS with 11.5mm spacer
Wrapped with 28 x 10.5 x 15 MT ET Drags

Sick non-hellaflush fitment! I just put my beefy RT-615's on (that I've been holding since December because they just look too pretty) and they look mean.

Yeah it is wierd- the SC seems to have better clearance for super wide rear tires and they put those 225s on them stock? . I trashed one of my tires on the lexus a few months ago and the supra happened to be down for maintenance so I thought I'd do wild and put my supra wheels on the lexus while I got tires for the IS350 chromes- the 315s that I had to cut my supra fenders for fit with NO rubbing on the completely stock rear fenders SC. Crazy right?

I'm sure you'll have a set of wheels devoted to DR's down the road.
Thanks, I was a little iffy about concave no lip but I like the way they came out, I'm tempted to buy an extra pair of 18x11 +42 and slap some DR's or R888's on just in case ha ha.

I bought the 315's on that closeout sale, I'm impressed so far you just have to warm them up.
