OK...

Good points

Look OK
Correct stud pattern

Bad points
Wrong offset so need spacers (not cheap)
Same size front & rear (staggered fitment always better)
Heavy

Standard Altezza/IS200 front tyre size doesn't fit under the mr2 spring perch. 215/45R17 is too tall. Rear wheels are tucked and look ghey.

Agreed. I think the fronts were 205/40/17 and the spacers sorted out the 'ghey' rears.
