Right now I am in the market for some nice 18in rims, but I want something that will be beautiful as well as functional.

Is it hard to launch a supra on 18in rims, is there a lot of wheel hop?

I know when I got my honda and I went to 17's I got tremendous amounts of wheel hop which forced me to change wheels at the track for good hard consistant launches.

I want to be able to go to the track possibly just alter my tire pressure and be able to rip off the line. I have the phillips 2-step right now on my bpu++ in TTC mode right now and I am doing pretty well, 12.4 on Toyo Proxes RA-1's.

Do you guys recommend I stay with 17 in order to retain a blistering launch or will 18's really not affect that since it's only one inch bigger?

Thanx

You will need the BFG G-Force TA drag radials, they come in 18" sizes.

I did 2.16 60' with 285/35/18 Toyo T1S, and stiff TEINS. It resulted with 12.5 @ 122 MPH

if you want to drag, get 17s
if you want looks, get 18s...or both

Just put some BFG DR's on your stock rims and save those for the track.

nice times paul, why don't you make your coild-overs really loose? can't you adjust them?

cybercyde do you have a built auto? that's pretty impressive. I ran a 12.5 with 2.1 60' @ 116 with an unlocked 3800 rpm convertor. I did run a 12.4 on a 2.01 60' but the traps fell hard for some reason
