Hi all,

I have just insalled blitz 03 on my car.
Rear 18 x 10
Front 18 x 8

The shop could not install the front rims, the rims hits the caliper (car has stock calipers and stock springs )

They tired using spacers but when they use them, the lug becomes shorts and therefore the lug-nut will not fit.

They told me to go some where else, the other place told me that i need a new ' adapter'. I remember him mentioning that i need 4.5" x 4.5" adapter for 5 lugs rims. He said that the adapter is thicker than the stock and he says that this will probably solve the problem.
Honestly, i am not sure if can trust him, he seemed to be intrested in my money.

I had to take the car back to my home, i have the stock rims in front and the 03's on the back
I need to fix this problem before sunday ( going to moroso )

Does anyone know know anything about this? has it occured to you before? Any suggenstions?


Here is a pic of blitz 03 on my car

You got the wrong size&offset Blitz 03's. Sorry. You need 18x9's.

If you absolutely need the wheels on for the show, get longer wheels studs and the right spacer. But Andi said it, you got the wrong 03.

if you can't exchange the rims>>>

which i would do....call dave at gt auto sport ...he sell hubcentric adaptors/longs studs, that work fine...

but if i were you bite the shipping cost, and exchage the rims, for the right offset

Wrong offset buddy.
You must ALWAYS, ALWAYS remember that TT Supras have BIG calipers, so selecting proper offset is a MUST.

go sell the rims and get something else...
Don't put spacers on...you'll regret it.

however, 18x8 with proper offset will fit your car.
