I'm thinking about offsetting the the pearl white body with electric blue or ....... ? wheels, or maybe just straight black Any good color ideas?
The other thing is, can I slap on 17", wider wheels without any modification or drastic losses. I thought it might give it a meatier look without lowering it.

Man, 17" are still small wheels for Soarer. I have 18" and are barely OK. Sure you can. Offset 35 is ok and safe. And for the colour? White is always better than black. Good luck

Thanks fellas, I need to do the Japanese safety check this month with the original wheels ( Shaken every two yrs ) After that, 18" rims will be the go. Used mag stores are booming here now so, they'll be cheap enough. I'm gonna be a tight a*rse on this car, just because it was a freebe and I'd like to see how cheaply I can turn it out

Picked up two sets of wheels & tires $570. 1 set / snow tires 16", the other set 18" I painted gloss black. Pretty rapt with the look, I'll see if I can find red covers for the calipers.
BTW great site, found all info I've needed fast every time, great contributors.
I'm sure you could easily source a set of cheap LS400/JZA80 4 pots over there to fit up & paint red though that would then require wheels with big brake clearance, haha.

I'd Agree with you Mark, anything over 18's would be a compromise for the soarer. But regarding the look of the above rims, gloss black on pearl white does look attractive.
