Best fit for scion rims Options

[Tyglon]

I Picked up a set of TC rims for ultra cheap to go on my 95 gt. I want to lower it with an eibach kit and was wondering a few things: spacers(sizes), tires(size), and shock choice.

I've read that 225/45/17 are recommended. Is that at stock ride height or would that work lowered too?

38mm spacer for rear brings it to 7mm. That too far? Should I get the 25mm? I like hellaflush style, but not necissary.
And 15mm for front? Im not sure. Getting rear fenders rolled, I gathered that much.

Lastly, what shock is recommended to use with the lowering springs?

I appreciate all help and input. Thank you.

I believe the best tire setup is 215/40/17 given that our 15in tires are 205/55/15. That implies keeping stock tire diameter. You can use anything you want, but 225/45/17 is bigger than stock, so your speedo won't read right.


If you're looking for stance, get coilovers. Otherwise, KYB, Koni Sport (yellows), etc. are good for up to a 1.5" drop.
