Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
This web site that deal's with the 82-85 celica/supra say's that factory supra rims are 8mm offset, which I know is true since those car's are RWD and their rims stick out from the hubs quite a bit. (The 86-90 celica's went to a fwd chassis and may use rims simular to ours.) You cannot fix this in anyway, those rims are not useable. Using a spacer would only make the problem worse by moving the tire in further away from the hubs towards the fender lips even more. And with them being 7" wide, it would make a 195/60-14, look kinda funky when mounted, IMO.
