I voted OEM, but I have a feeling your more of a Z-Glide kinda guy.

QUOTE(Valo666 @ Jan 26, 2006 - 9:17 PM) [snapback]385084[/snapback] Just so you know, those are OEM sides. The z-glyde sides are the ones that dustin15brown has on his car.\ Yes, its false advertising.

In my opinion, the Z-Glide looks much better on 94-95 celicas. It looks like too much with the added fogs and lower front bumper... Those pics are of a 96+ celica... Id go with z-glide.

I like the front piece and the side skirts pictured,
but I dont like the rear piece. The rear piece would look better if it didnt go up along the sides. --------------------  98 ST204 ZR - Black Beauty - Roaming the streets of Sydney 73 TA22 LT - Tiffany Blue - Mint Classic Weekend Cruiser 75 TA22 LT - Snow White - Mint Classic Weekend Cruiser 77 RA28 LT - Flubber Green - Mint Classic Weekend Cruiser 94 MX-5 NA8 Clubman - Red Racer - Looking for corners WIP Project: 69 RT40 Corona, 2nd WIP Project: 66 RT40 1600s Corona 86 Corona RT142 - Daily Driver 6GC 4 Life Baby!!! |

personally i like the OEM, the Zglide kit look more like an extension. The front kit look alright though, gotta love the holes to cool down the tyres

Why do you want cold tires anyway?

if they get too hot, they might get sticky. Which could lead to exessive traction, we all know that means bad news.

because the celica travels so mindblisteringly fast that the tires reach temeratures in excess of 1300 degrees thats why you would want them to be cooled lol
