hey pras! if you need wheels let me know, i'm happy to lend you a pair from my ever-expanding collection.

i'm a bit strapped to pay the shipping costs, but shouldn't cost more than 50 bucks to get a pair of te's up to you. Either that or can send a pair up with your car when it gets back from brett! :)

Thanks mate, I actually just started this thread on Friday to get some ideas of what was out there that cleared the brakes, and I was very bored so I felt like looking a wheels pics ha!

When I get my te's repaired I'm going to try to find a really cheap set of 17's to use
for the week or so, so thanks for that offer, let me know if you spot any cheap pairs or a set going around, condition doesn't matter as long as there aren't any cracks.

I think I might have a single white te37 in a 17 as a spare in the boot at the moment.

[f**k] I didn't know this thread was around, I would have contributed earlier.
The 350z track rims do clear the supra calipers by miles, the specs on them are 18x8 +30 all round.


No worries man, it's nothing too serious, nice pic, they are at the top of my list at the moment actually!

^ look very nice. Are you planning to finish them with some centre caps, or leave them with the clean look?

Ruthlessly raped sparkeystav's thread for this pic
Rx8 wheels - specs unknown 15mm spacers to clear

Yep their mine.

the RX8 ones are et50 IIRC

i had the 15mm from when i had the brakes with the stock alloys so just used them.

could prob get away with a few mm lower IMHO

Need to state more information as everyone will have something slightly different.
