Getting some new tires soon, any ideas?

Where have you found your supra's? I believe they come in 14x7 and 14x6... so depending on what you have it will look more or less stretched.

The whole stretch thing is not really important though, it's just a cheap way of reducing sidewall flex on tires that dont have stiff sidewalls. Most sports tires do have stiffer sidewalls. I just like the way it looks and intend to drive my car on slaloms now and then, which is the only place that you're really going to notice any advantage to the whole stretching thing.

185/60 is a nice size for supra's and will fit well with a bit of lowering. Bigger tyre sizes also have their advantages, you can get more grip, and have the benefit of some protection against curb damage. But if you're not using expensive sports shocks and stiff springs you'll run into rubbing problems sooner.

BTW, I went ahead and ordered 4 Falken Ziex's... waiting any longer wouldnt make sense since the weather is too damn dangerous to be driving on 1mm profile tyres at the moment.
