Do these fit straight on?

What tyres are you running?

Looks great, lovely wheels!

I dont like them but I dont like them on the Supra either. Sorry to be negative, just my opinion.
If you can't see the angle, you're in trouble.

They will not fit straight on, you will need 10mm spacers front and at least 5mm rear.

The rims are staggered 8" / 9". Running 215/45/16 up front and 245/45/16 rear.

Cheers :thumleft:

Yeah, that's what I wanted and i'm really pleased with them. They fill the arches better without looking too aftermarket. I was a bit worried 245 on the rear was going to be a bit too wide for the MR2, but I think it gets away with it fine....cheers for the comments peeps :thumleft:
