I really have hard time to decide what wheels to put on my Orange box, Now I kind like the idea of moon disk hubcap..........so maybe you guys can give me some ideas.

It has NKB full kit already (thanks to David @ Memoryfab :D), and will be lowered with Tein S-tech very soon.

kit = awesome...but doesn't blend well with moon discs ;)

...now going with the NKB cups would definately complete the Euro Sporty look :D

Best bodykit I've seen. The photoshop on the moon disks is kind of crude, but if you're going to drop the cash on a nice bodykit you might as well go all out and get some 16x8 dish rims to complete the look.

need to drop it fast...I want that kit so bad. Also you gotta put some deep dish mesh wheels on it to complete the look after the drop.

Might as well go all the way. Get the any of the NKB wheels in 16x9! I think it would look really good dropped 3" too...

Did the kit require any mods to the bumper bars/supports?

16x9 NKB cup will definitely be my first choice, but since I am in the stage to start a new business so $$$ is really a concern now ($1100 + new tires). However, I am looking for something cheap and still looks good....at least i have something to cover the ugly steel wheels.....

the NKB kit is a direct bolt on, at least this is what the body shop guy told me.

For the euro style, check VWvortex forums for used deals. Brand new, I think you can get a set of Schmidts for aroun $1100... I think. Check out Tunershop.com...I like these:

Those are HOT!!! does anyone have a pic with those on a box? I would really love to get a set of those for the box not sure what they would look like in 15 and 16 inch.

Thanks for the reply. Also, is the kit fibreglass, ABS, or polyglass (or whatever its called)?

And Dave (toy xbox) has them also. Ken (NCP31) was going to run his moons at Exposed (back in February) if his mesh rims weren't painted in time.

Moons are sweet, cheap, and old skool. Look at all the insane money people drop on modding out a lead sled Merc and still the best way to complete it is Full Moon's. That body kit is the tightest I've seen. Clean without being overdone. That kit with shaved handles and no graphics would Sick. The euro plate is kind of funny, but the shape fits the lines well.

Hand laid fibreglass

Also, it's possible to get the front, back and side separately if you want.

I think this may be it!! Tinted front windows, lowered, cleared headlights, and those suggested wheels.....

So this is the lucky guy that got the last NKB xA Kit this month. Thomas @ Scion Mag is a real cool cat :P No modifications for both kits is needed. The kits were made especially for US Scions.

It is good to also see the xB Kit finally on! Time to get those coilovers and wheels over here, I'll do some great deals as a package for any returning customers :twisted:
