New wheels on the Mystichrome...

[Gary101386]

Finally got tires.

Zedd SL5's 10.5's in each corner. 315 Toyo rears and 275 Continental fronts.

Brushed looks good on mystichrome.

I like it, is it weird driving with two different kinds of tires up front? I'm about to buy a set of r888s but I'm thinking of going with something different for the fronts. Did you roll the rear fenders?

 

[MG0h3]

Never heard of those or seen them but they look terrific!

Heck no.

You need W/D tires to steer and drag radials to grip in the rear. Haha

I had never heard of them either, looking on Craigslist I came across them, met up with the seller and bought them.

You know, I was worried about losing the Chrome that I had on the FR500's but I am really digging the brushed myself!

 

[MG0h3]

^^Absolutely! Your paint is bright and chrome wheels take away from it.

I like it.

Looking at my pictures... I really need powdercoated calipers and nice looking drilled and slotted rotors now.

It never ends. Haha

Yes, a brake package would really make those wheels/brakes pop! Do it!

I really like those wheels. Different, and they go well with the Mystichrome paint. Awesome looking ride!

I'm sure I will... gotta recover from what I shelled out for the wheels/tires first!

I like it. A lot.

Can you please post up specs? Are they 17's? Offset? Springs? Irs?

Full lock-to-lock, no interference with the 10.5's up front?

Thx -

And congrats, looks perfect

Thanks man!

All 4 are 18x10.5 +25 offset.
275/35/18 front and 315/35/18 rear
Stock springs with 3/4 coil cut
Stock IRS with recessed IRS bolts
I've only driven the car once around my neighborhood last night after I put wheels on and didn't get any rubbing at full lock either direction.

Looks great! I love to see pple go out of the norm and work of course. Curious, why 10.5 up front?

I found the wheels on Craigslist. A local guy bought them for a Supra nonetheless and never installed tires on them or mounted them. I assumed they were staggered but all 4 were 10.5's, so after some research and test fitting I knew they'd work and im very happy with them.

I never measured but I believe I had 10.5 all around on my 2001 GT

 

[ricafortegio]

gotcha ive put a 10" wide on the front of a foxbody so i know theyd fit but was just curious why.

Love those wheels. Tried to grab a set but was having issues locating them since I guess they are no longer being produced. Found a similar wheel to go with instead. Looks great though man!

Thanks! I'm happier than I thought I'd be with them.

Damn, I missed this was a square set. Now that I look again I see the same lip. I still like them.

 

[CSCOBRA03]

I'm not a fan of the wheels, but it seems like many do like them.
If your happy that's what counts, nice car.
