From: ATL-What U Know About That???
Hey all, just purchased some tanabe gf210 springs and will soon be purchasing tokico d-specs, cusco sways and the gt spec lower tie and lateral bar package.
At this time I really don't want to invest in a set of new rims / tires but I do want to widen the stock wheels so I can run Yokohame A032R's 245/45ZR-17 front and 275/40ZR-17 rear. What I'll end up doing if I commit to this is move the rear wheels up front (since they're already wide enough) and get the front wheels widened a couple inches and move those to the rear. I will have to get spacers to run the rears definetly and maybe the fronts as well, but I'd like to know if running spacers would have an adverse effect on the Z's suspension and/or steering?
EDIT: Forgot to ask if 315's could be a possible fit in the rear with little to no mods to the fender lip??
Also here's a pic of a stock Supra rim that a friend had widened some years ago. He went from 8" to 11.5".
