AudioOput, I know u are very active in this forum. Also very keen on upgrading your Celica. However, please help me to solve the JDM tail lights u bought from me on 27 APR. Paypal just send u all the refund because of unauthorised fund found.

I am looking forward for your response.

yup.. that is what my dream celica would look.. but in black!

haha Thanks Initialdrift55 and everyone else for their comments. >smile.gif>
I'm flattered that you used one of my pics as your wallpaper. I don't even have my car as my wallpaper! lol

Yeah FINALLY it's done. Well there's still some minor things that need to get fixed or finished. Especially the bottoms of my front splitters. I didn't show the pics of the fiberglass all tore up from this winter. It's pretty bad. >frown.gif> Sorta bummed, but what can you do right?

Anyways, I spent $1300.10 on the wheels and tires. Been shopping around online and ended up just going to Discount Tire to order them. That way I'd have the warranty if something happened. Plus the salesperson hooked me up in a way.

They're 17x7's, offset is 48. Tires are Nitto Neo Gen's 215/40's.
Isnt their warranty for tires only? I didnt read anything about rims.

Yes, their warranty is for tires only. Sorry I wan't clear on that.
However they are replacing one of my wheels. I noticed a slight color difference on one of the wheels and they're replacing that.

dag. That's really nice. Do you plan on installing your JDM tails?
they sorta remind me of the 7th Gen Wheels, nice though >biggrin.gif>

yea i really like those wheels on your celi. i was thinking of getting those same ones in bronze but my friend got to them before i did. so now im thinking of the FN01R-C's in black with the polished lip.
jdog, our cars will end up looking a lot alike, we can say we've travelled to eachother's areas and nobody will be the wiser >smile.gif>

btw, that two piece black w/ polish, it's price came down, A LOT.
17X8 in 35offset.

Yes when I get them in, should be here any day now. Well actually, in the next few days since I just payed for them on 5/16. Says 2-3 days shipped once payment is received. So keep your fingers crossed erbody! >biggrin.gif>

Then I'll have to retake some pics with the JDM tails on.

we're twins, lol. glad to see the price finally went down. my #1 choice is the SSR anthricite wheels but the price is still very high
~420 each, i know >wink.gif>
i was eying those as well, at 15lbs they're amazing, but i also heard bad things about the early SSR competitions when being ran hard, i'm guessing they addressed the issues because they're used in pro series now, but still... slightly weary to pay $400 for something that ever had that said about it

5zigens = amazingly affordable and nice.
you get the 17X9 w/ 35 offset first (see if they fit >tongue.gif>)
8" or 9" either or would be interesting at the 35offset that's really common
wow looking great !!!

I will return one day.

o man that would look amazing. possibly 17x9 in the rear and 17x8 in the front. dont think you can put a 17x9 in the front...wont be able to turn.
