Not so sure I like the stetched tire look in the rear, but they don't make a Nitto NeoGen in a 225/35r18.


Thanks Fujiz!

so did you have to roll or do they fit pretty well, i finally saw the thread on club xb with the those guys running the same wheel, there all sick, looks good man

[FrankenScion]

No Rolling, it doesn't look like I will have to unless I go with a 225.

[DriverLost]

:blink2: Dang! Dem's sweet bro. :bow:

No roll? That's awesome.

[hank]

oh shit very nice :up:

[06xb30]

:bash: looks sweet , Watch those curbs :bash:

[dfwaltima]

good god, those look better than what i thought.. man that lip is insane..

[Frday13]

PIMP

[aalbertson3]

God damn those are sexy as HELL!!! :bow:

[FrankenScion]

OK, I decided I REALLY didn't like the stretched look and one tire wasn't holding air. So I went and bought new tires. Now I'm rubbing like a mofo and I'm on a desperate search for rear springs for tomorrow......lol.

Jeremy call me!

[Sciko Hubby]

The rims are bad ass, hope you solve the rubbing issue.

[FrankenScion]

Ok, I got some factory springs that I'm going to cut to fit tomorrow to get me buy until I get my 225/35's which will be Wed.

Should be interesting. :crazy:

[whatmovesu]

Those are the wide tracks sweet I have been wanting those in gold is it the 80mm or the 110mm :bow:

[Nebster]

man i'm glad you got rid of the stretched look. why not just get coilovers? or will you

[FrankenScion]

I can't afford coilovers at the moment.

And Kenneth they are 90mm fronts and 110mm rears.

[Krdshrk]

Oh snap! Nice!

[xBvegan]

hey Jon,
the new wheels look friggin' sweet!! :up: definately agree the "stretch" has got to go! Can't wait to see it when it's all done!

Congrats Man!!

[FrankenScion]

[dredge38]

sweet to how did it turn out with the heat gun and all

[FrankenScion]

It worked great, I chipped the paint in a few places, but none visible.

And I know for a fact the heat gun worked cause yesterday when I tried it without the heat gun I cracked the paint. :doh:

[dredge38]

ya same thing happened to me, thats could you gotta it fixed up and ready to roll with out rubbing now

[Intimidator]

Looking hot. I hope to have new rims by spring! :up:

[DriverLost]

The 40's roll any better than the 35's?

[FrankenScion]

Actually, ya they do.

[Nebster]

looks good jon. ya i didn't like the stretched look either. glad you went with a wider tire.

[FrankenScion]

Wider tires and Clay and I ended up putting factory springs on the rear before we drove to KC. Once I filled up the gas tank it was rubbing like a motherfucker.

Now I'm rocking the old school Camaro look, all I need is a mullet.

[06xb30]

i would pass on the mullet :roll: , so is it back to the tire store .

[FrankenScion]

I have some 225/35's on order and I'm thinking of picking up some TRD springs since they are only an inch drop for the rear.

[BrideOfFrankenscion]

:roll: This is like set number 6 or more... the boy likes shoes. (These are my favorite.)

You just had to have a bigger lip than mine. :wink:

[FrankenScion]

I think we might be even now......lol.

[06xb30]

Trial and error thats the only way to know ..


:rofl: if your even sombody better get another set fast :roll:

[RedLine_tC]

those are some sweet rims :shock: look at that lip :D

[Krazylowgsx]

after he filled up with gas at Qt, i could smell the rubber burning and i was following him a ways back..lol.

gla we got it taken care of for the KC show tho. Its always something with us!

[FrankenScion]

Cool pic that Hunter took on the way back from KC.

Nothing but lip:

[06xb30]

[trebor]

Simply amazing :shock:

[Flecs]

DAYUM! looks sweet... but i must go aginst the crown on the stretche dtire look... i liked it!

[STARK_INDUSTRIES]

thoes are fn awsome im getting something simular but from what it looks liks i will get them for 1/2 off or full sposorship by this company that i invited to be a vendor at the car show in bakersfield. they will look awsome with the wide body kit. good pic jon.

[Retro Style]

I'm jealous. Looks hot Jon!

[zereaux]

damn dude... we're going to have the same shoes, well, almost...
i bought the Axis Widetracks earlier this week:
F - 18x8,20mm offset, 90mm lip, 4x100
R - 18x9, 20mm offset, 120mm lip,4x100

i love these rims, i cant wait to get them in and put them on...

[FrankenScion]

Yep. those are exactly like mine.
What drop springs do you have?

Have fun making 'em fit. :wink:

[ROFL Box]

nice...

[zereaux]

i have the tein s techs... yeah, i just priced a heat gun just in case, $20... only thing sux, i just put on the otg shims, now i'm going to have to take them off since the rear tires are so wide... might leave them on just to see what it will look like...

[FrankenScion]

They will definitely have to come off, you will be rubbing on every bounce anyway.
You might want to look at a stiffer rear spring like Road Magnets. www.scionpro.com

[xBvegan]

so Jon, did you take your shims off.... :ponder: ....lol

[FrankenScion]

Yep, mine are on Jeremy's car now. I can't imagine how bad they would rub if I had left them on.

[xBvegan]

Yep, mine are on Jeremy's car now.

Doh!! :doh:

[FrankenScion]

We could always repo 'em. :rofl2:

[xBvegan]

We could always repo 'em. :rofl2:

I'll bring the ski-masks and baseball bat, you bring the jack and tire iron!

LOL.

Nah, actually I just wanted to look at a set as I could probably make them here in the shop.

[FrankenScion]

They are easy enough to take off that he would probably let us. It's a solid piece of billet aluminum.

Oh, and I have a few more ideas I would like to talk to you about when you get a chance. Maybe tomorrow night if you go to BYB.

[xBvegan]

cool.

i got some stuff to bounce off of you too. I'll see you tomorrow night.

:up:

Guess you better get to bed early tonight so your not "toast" again tomorrow night...lol.

[FrankenScion]

That's for sure, I could go to sleep right now.........lol.

[xBvegan]

Just looked at the weather....80% chance of rain tomorrow.....if it's raining, I'll just cruise out to your place, if that's cool.

[FrankenScion]

Absolutely.

[zereaux]

my shoes should be in monday... kinda sux too, car show this weekend :(
