I got the 19" - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #16374 13 posts Started by Ricky
So I finally got the 19x8 wheels on my car. I got the 19x8 with maxis lip in the rear. My car has a 2" drop all around.

There is NO rubbing anywhere and so far it does not bottom out...it rides without any problems

check the rims here http://www.axiswheels.com/mod.html
How about some pics with them on your car?
Wheres my BS flag!

Sorry Ricky, I dont doubt that you have 19's, but I only have a TEIN drop (1.5" front, 1.0" rear) and I have bad rubbing in the rear. Unless you already cut and re-welded your quarter panel lips that is.

If you did, please email pictures as I will need to do this before the Celica hits the road again. >smile.gif>

19 x 8 I got, whats the tire size and offset for the rims you got?

If you have a inside offset (40+) , maybe you wouldn't have to cut the lip?

Hum, I'll put my flag away for now - lol >smile.gif>

I'm running on 19 x 8.5 with a 35 offset. It looks like a Supra! But until I re-weld that back lip, she sits her ass end on the tires on every launch and turn.

Why would somebody lie about something that simple? I don't think nobody would bother to write simple BS like that. >smile.gif>

Hey now, I mean no offense and actually rebuted myself throughout my reply. I'm interested in seeing your drop. I couldn't do it with mine, but as I said, many other factors play into this.

I know you have 19x8, whats the offset and tire size?

I'm not one to unjustly call a BS, its just I've only known 2 others besides me who've put 19's on a Celica. All of us needed rolled fenders, thus i'm interested in seeing the stats. Also, alot of people say they have 19's when they dont, thus the use of pictures.

For pictures Ricky, I use Photobucket.com. Its fairly simple. Just copy the [/img] link into your reply.

Ok here is the info on the tires... 225/35/ZR19 TOYO Proxes. The offset I will get for you.. Im not 100% sure but I believe they are 35.

I will get pictures during the week... I can only tell you that it looks off the chain..

About the BS flag... I was not offended at all... its all good it adds fun to the forum.

I do however need to correct myself.. I used Drop Zone springs for my drop and it is 1.5 all around not 2 like I stated. I was told by the installer that it was 2 but I called Drop Zone and asked is actually 1.5.

chack them out at www.dropzonesuspension.com they are local (Miami) which is very convenient for me.

I will check photobucket..
