I’m sure the wheels your “keeping a secret” someone has them.

I was going to buy CCW 505a’s but Tony bought them, so I decided against it. Volks are nice, but the classics really make the car look mean.

On another note, I was reading about the classics and Supra’s aparently need some spacer that makes them tilt out a bit that I dont know if im fond of. It’s either that or grind down my calipers, which I dont plan on doing.

yea people have the wheels i want, but not a lot from what i have seen and no one around here.

505’s are ok… but just ok imo. they are kinda showy.

i love the classics and would only get them if i found a sweet deal on some used ones. but i just hate how everyone and there fucking mother has them. its like a national standard drag wheel.

Actually quite cheap by the standards. But, are starting to show up on every vette and viper in the area.

$2500 ish is cheap for a good set. I would keep looking for something real unique personally (but the 505A are tits)

I would not buy the same wheels as someone else with the same exact car. That doesn’t make any sense. There is reason a ton of Supra’s have CCW’s. I’d have HRE’s but im not spending 6-7K on wheels.

360forged wheels are on par if not more expensive than HRE.

I really like these as well after seeing a fellow SF members car, from DPE… a bit more money as they are 3 piece…

These are HRE but the DPE look just like em:

Here lies the issue.

1. DPE has made like one other set of wheels for a Supra. And it was widebody. So that’s a bad judgement. They are pricey, but I have a small hookup there. The fact they only made one other set for a Supra meant that not many people had them. Rarity factor. DPE’s retail for around $4000 a set. I’m getting them for less.

2. CCW’s. Very common, going to look good, but im going to look like every other Supra. Very good wheel. Cost: $2900 or so shipped. no tires

3. Volk. Great wheel company, I like the GT-V’s a lot.   
Good quality, lots of Supra’s have them, very JDM… would suit the car well. Looking at around $3000 a set.

That’s pretty much where im at, the DPE’s are a gamble, but could turn out looking sick. I can also get them in a number of finishes/fitments.
