The stock Turbo-Supra wheels have a 50 offset, the Wheels I want have a 40 offset they are 18x9 on the front and I am going to get the other 18x9 wheels widened to a 10 on the rear which will change the offset to (I DONT KNOW), and these wheels do have the right bolt pattern. The question <how much of a difference will if make the fronts look with a 40 offset as aposed to a 50offset>, The rears will end up getting widened and have near or over a 50offset, so I am not worried about those.
If anyone can help me out it would be the begining of a good looking SUPRA not that it already is.
thanks

I can will tell everyone what the Brand and a pic of the wheels on the post...............

ive got 40mm offset on the rear too, 17x9.5. i run a 275 tire with no rubbing. though it is pretty close with the far drop ive got. you should be fine in the front

THANKS MAN!!

Thanks for your help man, I also have a 2" drop with the Intrax springs so I hope there is no rubbing, or I will need to raise the car up.
thanks

If you widen your rear wheel to a 10" width, you will have a 53mm offset. This wll allow you to run a 285/30R18.

SO... last question.....

So if the rim that I am getting widened is 18x9 with already a 40 offset, then get it to a 18x10 the offset will become 53? I beleive you with no doubt but will that set up look weird or make the car ride right?
With front 18x9 with a 40 offset with 255/30/18 and rear 18x10 with a 50-53offset with 285/30/18? so that set up should work out fine.
I am surley not trying to ask to many questions, but I guess people can understand spending the money to get it right the first time and get what they want.
thanks a lot,
JORDAN

I am currently running an 18x10.5" 55mm offset rear wheel with a 295/30R18. An 18x10" 53mm offset will be moved inward about 4mm vs. my setup. The 285 on an 18x10" 53mm offset will stick out about 10mm more than the stock rear tire.
