got some mega wide wheels for the supra and the offset is slightly wrong on the front rims. dont HAVE to have this done but would like to. want the inside face (hub face) machined in around 10mm and then the stud holes would need to be welded up and re-drilled.

could do it all (except welding) at work but it just would not be enjoyable.

wheels are veilside andrew racing dish. 10.5" wide front and 13" wide rear. 3 piece by the looks. 8)

Cheers.

forget about this thread.

Offset isnt wrong at all. Was just my imagination and shape of the car playing tricks on me.

I just rode in waynes 1uz powered marvie. Totally kicks ass considering its hauling a 2.5 ton truck and is totally standard and running very rich.

Tq pwns and the 2j would loose all that shit down low the instant the twins are ditched :(

you obviously don't know bex :lol: she had the aristo sideways on a roundabout the other day, and quite nicely crossed up into the driveway from the main road. the amount of times shes said that the traction control is a pain when pulling out is getting quite hilarious!
