So I like the brutal honesty that people give on this forum. I can't make my mind up.
Do I keep the same style wheels on it now but with different offsets to flush them when coilovers are installed OR keep the 2.25 drop I have now and go with a 19" sexy wheel. Here is the car as it sits now...

19" wheels in mind are the MRR Design HR2 or the TSW Holsten.

Go with the 19" MRR's. Those little SportMaxx's do nothing for your car.

Oh, and lose whatever is written in the "No Fear" font.

Honesty? ok. Honestly? sell the car and start over.

But if one look works for these cars, its the VIP hellaflush look. do that lol.

I say keep the wheels and flush it with coilovers, in my opinion I love these size cars with smaller wheels, not that huge shit.

Ditch the stickers and grab a set of the gunmetal 18x8 bbs CKs off the new Avalon SE.

remove ALL of the stickers, lower it some more, sell the wheels, and use the money from the sold wheels to purchase bigger and better wheels

Stickers are from last year at shows, just been to lazy to remove them, I'm not a big fan of gunmetal wheels...

I couldn't get anything for the wheels that are on it now, they are in to rough of shape.

I have ponder the thought of getting rid of the car, but seeing how its just a year from being paid off so I'd rather just wait till next year and I'll have an actual project car.

Always. Stack your chips and pick up a set of 18" RS

Don't "flush it" because what you mean by that probably isn't flush at all. I would cop some 18" Work Eurolines......about the same cost of new coilovers and your current wheels but it would be worth it.

Damn sure would NOT go with that option. It's a Scion, not a Tahoe. Later, QD.

Yeah which is why the TRD option wheel from toyota is a 19" wheel for this car. Who even does below a 22 on a tahoe these days anyway?

I didn't ask what the TRD option was. You asked opinions, though. I gave mine. If I had a Tahoe, I would ride under 22" wheels. Who cares? Later, QD.

I know you didn't but I guess you missed the point. I do appreciate your opinions thats why asked. I didn't ask if you would ride under a 22" wheel on a Tahoe either.

Yeah I would love to do this when I'm not driving it everyday, roads here are terrible and so are the trucks.

It will be dropped at the most another 1.5 thats as low as I can go. Coilovers should be on order in the next couple of weeks.

There wasn't a point to miss. You asked an opinion and I gave mine. You brought up a TRD option which has no effect on my opinion.


I do appreciate your opinions thats why asked.

And that's all it was, dude. My thoughts. Whatever you end up doing is all you, homey. It's all good, dude.


I didn't ask if you would ride under a 22" wheel on a Tahoe either.


You pretty much did, man. You asked, and I quote, "Who even does below a 22 on a tahoe these days anyway?" I simply answered the question.

Like I said, it's all on you. I'm not here to rain on your thread, here, dude. Later, QD.

Do as they say, remove all stickers and make it real CLEAN, those cars are cool when they are clean. Drop and wheels is up to you, asking others about that is not gonna satisfy your taste.

look pimpin... first off i'd like to say your vehicle is VERY clean. just remove some stickers.

i'd rock anything between 16" and 18". i would NOT do 19's. depending on how low you wanna go would determine what size wheels to get. ive seen some hot examples of these with 18's. like this

GREAT trade! I'd love to mess around with a new beetle. build the shit out of it, and crazy stance.

honduh
02-14-2011, 02:40 PM
yeah, it has a full non adjustable billstien suspension. It has a nice stance just would like a little more aggressive look the paint and body need some work as well as the interior but those are things a I can do for practically nothing. I should have some pictures up tonight..
