What do you guys think would look best? I am torn apart on the wheels that are on it or somthing wider.

I would like to tuck a 10" all the way around, but here is the real kicker, 15x10ish or 18x10ish?

If I go 15's they will be old school Works or the likes.

If 18's I am not sure yet.

So my question, stay 15's or tuck 18's?

Pics are welcome too.

how about save up and get a 1jz

[ZipTiedCoupe]

Thats in the works after I finish the 5spd swap and front coilovers . I am in college right now so that would be too practical for me at this moment in time. The down time would be a problem for me.

[Dousan_PG]

if thats the case
keep whatever wheels u already have

[ZipTiedCoupe]

I do however have the 1jz about covered with cash. I just dont have the down time. Anyone on Ziptied wanna hook me up? Been trying to get on there for a yr now.

[Dousan_PG]

hook u up?
huh?
ask aphxero if u need wiring help
the rest just do it yourself. its not hard

I dunno man, this guy's a jesus freak so he might not have the smarts to do it himself.

about the wheels, if you're in college then don't do shit to the car, just save up. there are more important things in life than wheels.

[1994Boy]

Keep those rims and just paint them.

[ZipTiedCoupe]

spiknspan, who says you cant be a jesus freak be smart? lol

[240trainee]

15's

that style fits the body better.

We are trying to get like 15x7 or 8 -50 something offset wheels to fit his.

I am going to have a lot of fun with a sledge and a fender roller, lol.

1JZ's are rad, wish he had one.

Oh, random Q. Any way to get more negative rear camber? Fucking semi-trailing arms suck dick.

[TheArkitekt]

could use a mandrel bender on the suspension stuff to get more neg, its an old e30 spec racer trick

[Pank]

You bought that off of carolina nissans didnt you. I know he's been trying to sell that thing for forever.

also, its an mx73, not x7

Hmmmm, ok, that might work.

[txrxs]

spiknspan, who says you cant be a jesus freak be smart? lol

I do. :kiss:

[TheArkitekt]

Hmmmm, ok, that might work.

yeah i would have to look on my friends cressida to see what would need bent, but my guess is the shock housing itsself. you could also slot the fork of the front shock for more camber....

[240trainee]

Yea, front is good to go, it has corolla style coils with camber plates. It's just the rear, on KYB's I think with cut TRD springs.

Would make fitting the wheels easier if I could get 2 more degrees of negative camber.

[lolwut]

15s for sure. Im actually really diggin the style wheels you have now, although the orange is a little loud for me.

IMO, 18s would look incredibly out of place on that car.

[LS240]

I don't like the color, but those wheels are badass. What are they?

[ZipTiedCoupe]

Centerline Hammers.

[zugoi]

How about you get that peice of shit out of here and find a toyota forum. haha im jk your car looks badass. I say stick with 15x10 and keep the oldschool look.

[Matej]

16x10J with 205/40.

Tucking wheels with flared fenders is not possible.

[ayuaddict]

i had a x7 and i ran 15x8 -25 i believe.

fit nice.

my friend has a x7 as well and has 18x9/18x10 +10 euroline DHs all around.

looks wayyy cool.

where do i find nice wheels like this i really want nice size 16's with negative

[firelizard]

If you've got massive dish, people will like just about any diameter from 15 to 18.

I still think 15 or 16 is the magic number, but going big can work if you're after a more luxy style.

Any chance I can get some pictures?

I am trying to et Driven08's front coils and finish the conversion. I have rear S13 JIC's on the rear.


Eventually it will become track car. I am just waiting on some time I can put the car under the knife.
