Thank for the wheel and tyre info. I am just about to buy my wheels and tyres set of Advan T4s 18 x 9 and 18 x 10 with 255/40 front and 295/30 rear in an Advan A050s. Can I ask if you had any trouble fitting the 9.5 and 10.5 wheels within the guards without rolling them, especially with the 295s on the rear. What offset are the wheels. I would prefer to go with your wheel and tyre sizing but my tyres of choice don't come in those exact sizes. If you don't mind sharing what price where your wheels and tyres and where did you source them from. Many thanks for your advice.

Hi Charlie, sorry for the late reply. My wheels specs are TE37SAGA 18x9
5 +20 and 18x10.5 +30, with 265 35 18 and 295 30 18 tyres respectively. No problems fitting under the guards. The supra guards are very generous as a stock car. Hope you have your wheels sorted by now.

It's Autumn in the Southern Hemisphere, the yellow Supra fits in with the natural environment just as well as its at home on the race track.

Great choice and setup. The A050 is the best semi along with Hankook Z221. The only thing is I'd keep an eye on are those 295s on the rear. These tyres run wide. In the 295 its actually too wide for the 10inch rim. I had the same setup on a M2 and the tyre popped off on the track. The ideal size for the 295 is 10.5 to 11.

Many thanks for the advice. I might have a think about the Hankooks as they are a lot less expensive. Did you run soft or medium compound? I will also query the 295s. I would have preferred a set of 11.5s on the back but the ADVAN rep advised against.

A few recent track day photos. Still getting use to the touchy throttle on the track. A custom tune via BM3 has made significant improvement but as soon as you put the engine in sport mode it reverts back to the snappy behavior again.

I was using the mediums. What did you end up using?

Love what you did with the matte wrap. It compliments the yellow so well!

Looks awesome, well done!

Carbon door trim sections would compliment it well also

Did you have any videos of the exhaust since the upgrades?

Thanks buddy. Haven't got an exhaust vid in particular but here's an in-car vid of the track day I did at Bathurst. You can hear the exhaust note.
