Standard rims are either 14' or 15'. The ones in the picture are 15x6 + 15x7 (And should be running either 195/55/r15/ | 205/50/r15 & 225/50/r15 if my memory serves correct). You'll have a very limited selection of tyre sizes.
 
17x8 & 17x9 +35 should fit without too many problems from what I've been told and will probably be the most common size. I'm running 17x7.5 +30 & 17x8.5 +40 and have no rubbing at all. (I believe 17x7.5 +40 should also be fine)

Is there a parts supplier like Rare Spares is to Holden's and Fords for Mr2s?
 


Possibly the best used spare parts source is right here on the MR2 forum in 'Wanted to buy'
Also try Forum sponsors Gorilla or Road and Track.
 
But often you'll need to go overseas.
For genuine Toyota stuff, Amayama as already mentioned, and Lithia Toyota Parts in the US, but you will need to find the correct part number from somewhere like Toyodiy Parts.
 
For other assorted MR2 bits, Google up:
Twos'R'us in the US.
MR2 Ben in the UK
RPM Garage in Hong Kong.

Hi Again,
 
I saw your request to Gorilla for price of freight for wheels to Perth.
Have you looked at posts by DB8 on this forum. I believe he is in Hong Kong & shows freight & time to ship.
 
He has lots of wheels.

The wheels pictured on my car are Stern Beasts; 17x8 +35 fronts and 17x9 +38 rears.
They'll be for sale soon if you like the look of them... :)

I'm also new to the Forum and didn't realise there were so many Mister2s around Perth, or WTF Auto even existed.  Thanks Flyboy for the info as they are Toyota/Mr2 specialists.  I need my front wheel alignment done since I replaced both front wheel hubs with rebuilt near new ones, in a hurry before leaving the UK so both wheels have been pointing outwards for sometime.  It drives fine but there definately toed outwards but didnt get seen on the roadworthy lol.  Will give WTF Auto a call.
