I think a lower offset wheel in the front would help alittle. Looks great tho!
My +22 in the front with 275 tires have maybe less than a .25" gap to the spring perch to the inner tires. Its a tight squeeze.

Thanks for the followup! Those 285s really are aggressive, but they should pay dividends on the track. Any rubbing up front under suspension compression?

The wheels look great on the car!

I will find out on monday. So far, no rubbing /w stock height. will also follow up after alignment tomorrow. ;)

These wheels are built for a square fitment as well as front wheels for our staggered setup. As a result, we can't make the offset of these 18x10s too low because they need to fit in the rear of the car as well.

This is what I posted in my build thread..

https://www.supramkv.com/threads/my-pewter-supra-build-log.5904/post-145015

one interesting fact... excerpts.

"... with the tire size, 285 35 18... on the way to NYST, speedometer constantly displayed 4 mph higher than GPS (waze on samsung galaxy S21) at speed limit of the road, but on the way back, only 1 mph higher than GPS. I will have to see if it changes back but it was something I thought it was interesting. ..."

One other thing to add... these wheels were in my living while waiting for spacers to come. during that time, I put 3 coats of CMX, 24 hours between each coat, hoping that it will yield easier wheel cleaning after track days.

It worked! Although it wasn't just hose it and done, cleaning was much easier than my other set that did not have any coat. rubber pieces were taken out with water hose and with just few stroke with brush, wheels were clean and no brake pad deposit. now I need to find out how long this is going to last.. :p

Nice! Which CMX product was this? The spray coating?

Just want to give everyone over at Apex a shout out for making a great Supra specific wheel! Finally got mine installed last night. I have to say, the way these things fit is just perfect. I dont think you guys could have got the offsets more perfect. Cant wait to do a couple more mods so that I can fit an 11" wheel up front!

The only thing I had to do was drill a hole in the fender liners in the rear and suck them in with a zip tie. They rubbed a hair without doing that.

This setup looks amazing! Any additional shots of the 315 in the rear? That's a crazy wide tire!

Tom - the lighting is bad right now. Too bright out/casting shadows in the wrong spots. I will get some booty shots when I get home. They are huge tires for sure. Here is a comparison to stock. Might not look like much from the picture but its a good 1.5" wider at the contact patch.

For those of you interested in alternate finishes in our SM-10 design, head over to our finish survey thread to provide feedback on what you'd like to see next in the SM-10 lineup!

All of you Satin Black fiends need to make yourselves heard!!! ?
