Correct Offset for 19x9" wheels

I would run a 265/30R19 or 255/30R19. If your running this size, you will want a 41-45mm offset for the 255 and a 45-50mm offset for the 265. Of course you will only want to run the 265 if you have a 285 or larger rear tire.

What if I run 235/35/19 all around... with 40 offset?

Please tell me your asking about some car other than a Supra? If so...please tell what kind of car. If not.....NO don't run the same size on all 4 corners.....that's just something you DO NOT do in (to) a Supra.

Actually the wheels were on my 2k Celica previously to purchacing the 94 TT... but the reason why I want to run the same all around is becuase I want the option of rotating the tires...

but about the size.. would it be okay (besides the fact of having fat "meat" in the back)

Yeah what he said!

Later, Steve

No....it would not be OK. Handling would suffer SEVERELY...and with a powerful RWD car like a Supra.....you definetly need more meat in the rear. Besides.....why make a Supra look like it's been neutured?

Sell the wheels and get some to fit the Supra. You car will have pretty severe over-steer with the setup you are considering.

I completely agree with you guys.... okay.. how about this.. get some larger tires for the back.. like 245/35/19 and leave the 225/35/19 in the front

Along with the larger tire in the back.. I would get some spacers to widen the back up a bit.. hmm??

You could run some 265's on 9"wide wheels and a 40mm offset. In the front and leave the 225's on the front. Though a 225 is really narrow on a 9" wheel.

Yes they are.. but then again, they used to be on a 2k Celica GTS... 265/35??

Well well guys.. i tried installing my wheels yesterday and well.. first off.. they are actually 19x8

second, x8 in the back w/ 225/35/19 looks like SHIT I need to bet x10 or just leave the stock wheels..

third... the front wheels hit the calipers.. so I guess stocks for a while..


I have a few questions... what is the stock offset, and what offset do I need on 18's. Also, what size tire is recommeneded for the front/back

Thanks!

The stock offset is 50mm's. I recommend my a setup similiar to mine. I have a 18x9.5" 50mm offset with 265/35R18's front and 18x10.5" 55mm offset with 295/30R18's on the rear. You could also do a 285/30R18 on the rear.

BTW I have done a wheel/tire fitment spreadsheet for the Supra. Hopefully I will get this on my website this week.

hmm sounds really nice.. Ya.. I was thinking that I shouldnt go 19s... with lowering and a nice set of 18s Im sure the car will look great..

Do you ahve pics of your setup?

side note: What do you guys think.. sell the rims and use the money to upgrade the car instaed of getting other rims??

Thanks!

You can see pictures on my website at www.geocities.com/steve_jarvis_me

BTW there is a post of my fitment spreadsheet in the MKIV tech section.
