Toyota Supra MK3 16 inch alloy wheels original

16-inch alloy wheels for the Toyota Supra MK3 (A70) are famous for their distinct 1980s styling. Depending on the year and market (USDM vs. JDM), there were two primary designs used for the 16-inch factory options.

1. The “Sawblade” Design (1986.5–1990)

This is the most recognizable wheel for the MK3. It features a directional, multi-slotted turbine look that was designed to pull air across the brake rotors to assist with cooling.

• Directional: These wheels are side-specific. There is a distinct “Left” and “Right” wheel to ensure the “blades” rotate in the correct direction on both sides of the car.

• Finish: Usually a brushed aluminum face with painted grey or silver windows.

• Specs: 16x7J with a +37mm offset.

2. The Five-Spoke Design (1991–1992)

For the final two years of production, Toyota updated the Supra with a cleaner, more modern five-spoke star design.

• Availability: These are significantly rarer than the sawblades, as production numbers for the ’91 and ’92 models were lower.

• Design: Curved, chunky spokes with a recessed center cap.

• Finish: Often found in high-silver or “Pearl White” (specifically for the White Package models).

   

• Specs: 16x7J with a +37mm offset.

Technical Specifications

Regardless of the design, all factory 16-inch MK3 wheels share the same fitment data:

Notable Variations

• The “White Package”: In the late 80s and early 90s, Toyota offered a “White Package” (Option Code 040) that included color-matched white sawblade or five-spoke wheels.

• JDM Spec: While the 16-inch wheel was the performance standard in the US, some Japanese base models (GA70) came with 15-inch “Phone Dial” style wheels.

• Center Caps: The “Sawblade” center caps are notorious for going missing. They are plastic and feature the “Toyota” text or the Supra “Dragon” logo depending on the region.
