i just got a set of is350 rims for christmas. it needs tires and my car will need to be lowered. i have two questions.
1. should i put the stock size is350 tire or should i go bigger?
2. how much should i lower my car?

i wouldnt go wider on the tire. i would definitely get bolt-on spacers for front and rear. otherwise the they look like crap. the wheels are 18x8.5+50? i would get 25mm spacer for the rear and at least 15mm in the front. lower it as much as you can. are you going with coilover setup or shock/springs? IMHO i would get 35mm spacer in the rear and 25mm in the front, roll the fenders, and slam is as low as its is humanly possible but it will also depend where you live and how the roads are. good luck. i have a set at my shop that my boss is selling for like 500 with tires. i dont know if i should do it or not though.

Im 22 and still have no money. lol. thats what college does to you.

if you do just spring go with some mk4 supra lowering springs. they will be lower then ones made for the sc.

good luck and post some pics when youre done.

mk4 springs will give you a nice drop. Im runnin is350 rims (no spacers) with supra spec springs/shocks and the front rubs a tad (could use a roll) and the rear is tuckin a lil. If I ran spacers I would definately need to roll both front and back fenders.

Will stock supra turbo springs lower the SC?

the stock supra shocks and springs are about an inch shorter then SCx00 ones i believe.

Have you put the wheels on yet? I'd love to see how they look on an SC.

I'm in the process of installing Bilstein HD supra TT shocks with oem supra TT springs fwiw.

easily my favorite rims on the sc...so clean, but still stock looking. I'm getting a set here pretty soon (knock on wood)...as far as lowering goes though, my plan is to get a set of stance coilovers and drop it that way.
