So SexciCelicaChikk and I trying to do something different from your average 6th gen. By going to different limits and doing clean custom work that will set her Celi apart from the rest. This inculdes as most have you have seen an outragous audio system, custom body kit(still in the concept stage), and more. But I actually want to put a little focus on the wheels for a moment. She found a set of rims that sparked her insterest and ladies when something sparks "IT SPARKS" Unfortunatly their lowest size tho nice is pushing the envelope quite a bit for most peoples taste, which is what is drawing me closer to liking them as well. So what Im asking for is thoughts, opinions, and ideas wether negative or postive. Question is Do you think this can work? Here's some pics to help with more of a visual idea: The two Rims she's eyeing right now ![]() ![]() Her Celica ![]() ![]() -------------------- From Japan to Texas my st202 follows me.

There's nothing really wrong with going a route that others have gone thru, it only means its tried and true. If you are set on getting wheels, stick with 16 or 17,, but increase the width,, more rubber contact the better handling. If you're set on having something "different" save up the money and get a 2 tone paint job. I've had many cars in my life, supercharged mustangs, turbo'ed eclipses, jeeps, rangers, you name it. If you need ideas send me msg and I can toss out a few more paths you can take. |
