Just bought an mr2 turbo rev1 it's got stock wheels and the tyres need changing so I thought it'd be better if I bought some decent second hand 17" alloys with good tyres.
Ive been on eBay and don't know what'll fit!
Any help/pics will be much appreciated!
Please give me some advise, also if anyone clocks a decent set and doesn't want to bid on then themselves please send me the link.
Thanks for ur time!!!!!! :-)

Cheers guys, I would be interested in your wheels rabster, if they're 17's and they fit! Are they staggered coz I've been told that they should be for an Mr2, but I'm not too sure!
I'll put some pics up asap but the cars at the other end of the country in storage so it'll be after New Year!
Thanks again!!!

You wanna be careful putting 17" alloys on a Rev1. They have a very touchy suspension / geometry setup and you will probably find it twitchy and that it tramlines a lot! If you can try and keep the rolling radius the same (which is smaller on the rev1 because the stock wheels are 14" where rev2+ are 15" with different geometry) but doing this you will end up with ludicrously low profile tyres which really hurt your ride!
