Pic request: mk2s with 16" alloys

Post by Minty Fresh Death »

Could anyone post up mr2s with 16" alloys, i'm thinking of getting some BBS RS 16" but i'd like to see how alloys of a similar size look in the arches :thumleft:

TOM'S C3 Evolutions
OHLIN Struts...

In honesty I shoulda been wiser on tyre profile choice on the rear wheels as a 225/40 profile really doesnt work on the rear hence the massive clearance in the arch.

Those supra wheels look well on the black one! Have you hub adapters fitted or something?

Supras have a 114x5 PCD same as MR2s. I imagine it just needed hubcentric spacers and possibly some spiggot rings?

10mm hubcentric spacers on the front, and 5mm on the back to clear the struts, that's all :thumleft:
