Michael,
Being 25mm offset, how do they do with clearance with the car front and back?
How far do they sit inside the front flares and how far in at the back?

They clear the RA60 front struts that I have fitted by about 10mm to the tyre and they sit inside the front flares by about 5 - 10mm (I'll try and get a better pic when I get back to work on Tuesday).
On the rears, they sit in about 25 - 30mm without the spacer that I have used with the brakes that i have fitted.
Basically they sit out a little further than the std 14x7" Supra rims
Cheers

They will fit a range of cars, and were reportedly fitted to a 300ZX Nissan

When you look at the offsets, the backsapcing on the Simmons is about 125mm and this gives a front spacing of 78mm, whereas the std 14x7" Supra rims are 96 BS and 75 FS, so these mags sitick out another 3mm than the std MA61's

Greg,
I didn't convert the rims, I did the car
However, it might be a great chance/reason to change to 5 studs and I'll help ya with a killer brake upgrade as well !!!!!!
Might even get rid of the front calipers as I have a lead on some Porsche GT3 monoblock calipers .....

Quitter !!!!! What is holding you back ????
You know you want them.
You know you need them.
You know they will look so sexy on your car.
I can even be tempted to do a deal on the calipers and mounts to go with it !@!!
Go, you know it is your destiny.
Make me an offer I can't refuse....
