Seksi stance. What spacer size you thinking about?
09SocalTC 05-28-2010, 03:15 AM i got a 8mm rear right now wanna get 15mm's, for the front ill just replace with the 8mm's right now they have 5mm's.
all those mm's make me want M&M's
Not the same affect lol.
I just got 9mm for the rear on my ride too. Any wider the rear bumper will rub
09SocalTC 05-28-2010, 03:37 AM i had to cut and trim all the bumper tabs, but it still rubs i need to flare them out...
Yeah i trimed the bumper and hammerd some metal piece back. I am having trouble with the front driver side fender. It still rubs like crazy even after rolling. And yesterday i bent the fender in with my tire! lol
09SocalTC 05-28-2010, 03:51 AM ya i hammered that thick metal piece in that connected the rear bumper to the quarter panel, my neighbor gave me the dirtiest look after he saw me hammering on a brand newish car haha what profile are your tires? you probably need lower profile ones.
Lol tell me about. I still get people b___g about the mods that add to my car lol. I am running 225/40/18 and i took 2rings each side on the front basic coils. I want to stick to that size for cushin on the road. What about you?
09SocalTC 05-28-2010, 04:00 AM im on racelands and have the front on the absolute lowest setting...rides like ____ but its what everrr, and ya i have 225/40/18's i need to get 215/35/18's fronts are buckling like crazy on u-turns...
Lol mine too. My fenders are all chewed up.
chicotunner07 05-28-2010, 04:07 AM yo socal, i just bought 15mm spacers for my rear, how it sits right now with -2.5 degrees of camber it was sunken in, im hoping this will get me where i wanna be, whats your camber in the rear if you know at all? lol
09SocalTC 05-28-2010, 04:09 AM my camber is unknown but i would guess its anywhere from -1 or -1.8 i need an alignment baddd
chicotunner07 05-28-2010, 04:11 AM ahh, hopefully i didnt overshoot with the 15mm's, lol
chicotunner07 05-28-2010, 04:12 AM btw in the second pic, does the lip of the wheel ever contact the fender? looks like it would, kinda worries me, lol
09SocalTC 05-28-2010, 04:13 AM i would be scared your RPF1's have such a nice finish it would be a stab in the heart to see it get messed up :(
chicotunner07 05-28-2010, 04:14 AM ^lol, so does that mean yes it does hit the fender?
09SocalTC 05-28-2010, 04:15 AM btw in the second pic, does the lip of the wheel ever contact the fender? looks like it would, kinda worries me, lol
yes it does the paint is pretty messed up on that rim, but not to worried...just rotas lol and going to repaint them next month.
09SocalTC 05-28-2010, 04:16 AM ^lol, so does that mean yes it does hit the fender?
yup when i have more than 2 or more people in the back its really bad, but i don't think your rear is as low, you should be good.
but i could be wrong!
chicotunner07 05-28-2010, 04:18 AM we shall see saturday, ima do a full on weight test before i go rolling down the street, lol
Hey chicotuner how is the ride on that camber degree?
chicotunner07 05-28-2010, 04:27 AM hmm, no real difference then stock really, although its tough to ask me since i drive like a grandma with these wheels and drop, lol
no but honestly highway driving at 80-90 feels no different then when i had no camber on 235/40/17's
Yeah with those wheels you better drive like nana. Thanks for the info
wild1413 05-28-2010, 05:06 AM city of industry.. its right next to puente hills mall. search up the 60fwy, and azusa exit south of the freeway.. there should be a krispey kreme there.. if you wanna roll with, pm me. but try not to be late =D

scion_jon 05-30-2010, 08:03 AM specs?
alexion 05-30-2010, 08:10 AM So iam looking to get the gold boost drift rotas as someone is selling them rims and tires for $700 still in boxes. They got them and found out they would not fit his car. will they fit the scion tc as i have not tried to test this. also i did a search on the company rota and found one out of ireland and one out of the phillipines.
http://www.rotawheels.com/
and http://www.rotarims.ie/
what one is the real company?
i found the wheels on the IE site.
http://www.rotarims.ie/alloys_sub2.asp?id=23
i have a crimson scion tc and i think the gold will look better then any other color that i have seen.
any thoughts?

09SocalTC 05-30-2010, 04:34 PM specs?
Rota Torques 18x9.5et30 front/18x9.5et27 rear...camber is unknown, tires are 225/40/18, but really should have gone with 215/35/18.
ktothesass 05-30-2010, 05:51 PM 215/35 = need moar tire
tCtCtC 05-30-2010, 05:56 PM 09SocalTC, you probably have one of the nicest setups. Nothing major, but with a reasonable stretch.

Sonic_tC 06-02-2010, 05:12 AM i have a question on what spacers i should get to have an agressive fitment while still clearing my fenders on the back wheels.
I am currently running on 19x9.5" +48et on 225/35/19 tires
my fenders are rolled, and i want to space them out as much as possible without having the actual wheel hit my fender because i have a pretty big lip on my wheels.. lol
a friend suggested 10mm spacers but i want to get some more input.
i am lowered on tannabe DF210 that is 2.2" in the back with the stock shocks.
Thanks in advance for your help!!
09SocalTC 06-02-2010, 05:44 AM you could run a 20mm spacer rear and a 15mm front...that would be pretty flushh.
Sonic_tC 06-02-2010, 05:54 AM you could run a 20mm spacer rear and a 15mm front...that would be pretty flushh.
but im sure the back rims would hit the fender wouldnt it??

yellowxhoodie 06-09-2010, 02:42 AM well that didnt take very long. lol
did you roll and shave it?
09SocalTC 06-09-2010, 02:54 AM rolled/hammered the lip back so its flush, my car is just having a bad day.
Same problem here Socal. Same side too. My fender sits on the tires when i go up a curve sideways.
chicotunner07 06-09-2010, 04:13 AM ^REASON FOR MY WEAK FITMENT UP FRONT! lol
id cry if that happen, as i have mine now i can wedge a credit card between the fender/tire when turning, cant imagine how you guys go, lol
also, i thing bending the inner lip and hammering it flat only makes the fender lip weaker, whats more likely to bend a L or a V, if you know what i mean, mines slightly rolled back, but far from flat, just enough not to chew up my tire
09SocalTC 06-09-2010, 04:16 AM ya idk how im gonna sell this...gonna have to buy new fenders awww ____
jaewrek 06-09-2010, 04:17 AM welcome to the messed up fenders club =)
chicotunner07 06-09-2010, 04:31 AM ^lol
Socal, ive thought about the future of my car too, like the hella-trimming i did of the metal tab in the rear, lol a few other things too, hope the next owner likes aggressive fitment too, lmao
davedavetC 06-09-2010, 04:46 AM i've already accepted defeat :(
ktothesass 06-09-2010, 05:03 AM toyota and their paperthin fenders. thanks...
1GreeKtC 06-09-2010, 05:11 AM I guess it's just the price you guys have to pay. It looks nutz though! iLike
My driver side fender is actually after market. I got into an accident on that side and thought they replaced with actual toyota fender, but nope they wanted to save money. So these fenders are actually thiner than toyota.
NBM08tc 06-09-2010, 06:54 AM ^lol

09SocalTC 06-11-2010, 01:49 AM my fender is ____ed! idk why it keeps caving in, ever since i got backed into ive had this problem...
ktothesass 06-11-2010, 03:05 AM fenders will get killed. its bound to happen
09SocalTC 06-11-2010, 03:33 AM ya i smelt burning rubber on my way home, once i got out of my car my tire was rubbing on the fender pretty much bent all the way it! DMV took my $273 for stupid little registration stickers. I was planning to use that money for some lower profile tires.
/rant
i blame the DMW for all my problems
NBM08tc 06-11-2010, 04:21 AM Damn socal thats horrible. I hope you find a way to get rid of it.
ktothesass 06-11-2010, 05:00 AM as soon as it buckles pull it out with your hand. it should be hot enough that it wont crack paint.
09SocalTC 06-11-2010, 05:45 AM the paint is starting to crack, since i have to keep pulling it out...dam well new fenders aren't that expensive, but it would probably cost a lot to get them painted.
shinjitai 06-11-2010, 07:47 AM ill paint it for you. haha.

scion71tc 06-20-2010, 06:49 PM Rett, get a new home depot lip lol. It looks like you sprayed it black or something and it's chipping. I know you can read it up close but not from far away.
juzlookzfazt 06-21-2010, 03:05 AM Ah..that's what that was..writing on the HD lip. Stance is sick!
What are you lowered on? Specs on wheels / tires?

I love how it looks from behind. Not completely stuffed in there but still enough poke.
NBM08tc 06-21-2010, 04:54 AM LMAO! Its fun! People stare at my car on the highway trying to read it then they get mad when they see the "If you can read this, good for you!" lmao. But yeah i like it. Gives character to my baby!

Aroddalobster 06-23-2010, 10:51 PM rolled stock metal + camber, should fit nicely. i'm not even sure his suspension's fully compressed there
yellowxhoodie 06-24-2010, 12:11 AM get BN style fenders. Do itttt!
sky-on 06-24-2010, 04:00 PM rolled stock metal + camber, should fit nicely. his suspension's not fully compressed there
fixed, that's the plan =]
may need to pick up new coilovers, we'll see...
Dizzzle 06-24-2010, 04:50 PM Socal, What are you going to do about your fender? Because I have the same damage to the same fender. I found a site that has oem parts, that are a very good price, But they are primered parts not oem color.
http://www.racepages.com/products/?N=5578&Nr=OR%28AND%28make:Scion,model:tC%29,AND%28universal:1%29%29&Vi=11674+1709&mk=Scion&md=tC
FlintMica2005 06-24-2010, 04:52 PM damn those fender prices are good
davedavetC 06-24-2010, 05:05 PM yea prices are real good till you include shipping, 2 fenders shipped is 173, i was all set to order them till i saw they charge for shipping, and THEN handling...
FlintMica2005 06-24-2010, 05:26 PM lol thats weak
09SocalTC 06-24-2010, 06:32 PM hows the fitment on those? im thinking about ordering a drive side fender.
Dizzzle 06-24-2010, 07:17 PM yea prices are real good till you include shipping, 2 fenders shipped is 173, i was all set to order them till i saw they charge for shipping, and THEN handling...
But I only need a front bumper ("cover" which is the plastic part "bumper") and a passenger fender. and I will get bsp paint and spray them for now.
They are oem fitment, Ive been reading up on them. they are steel and they are primer already.
09SocalTC 06-24-2010, 07:39 PM oh wow they have bumpers to! i guess ill order a bumper and fender...the dealer wanted $293 for a bumper cover unpainted!
Dizzzle 06-24-2010, 08:03 PM Yep, Thats what im doing :P I heard duplicolor makes are car colors in a can..
I was told if I do this it will look like the stock car paint
1. Black primer (already on the parts)
2. Sand the primer for color coat
3. Paint the color.
4. Wet sand it for no orange peel
5. Clear it
6. wet sand the clear
7. polish/wax it
Only thing they dont have is hatchs, doors, or quarter panels.
I have a huge dent in the seem of my door line. (b pillar alignment line.)
FlintMica2005 06-24-2010, 08:06 PM rattle can will never look like stock. but a decent replica (not really)
paintscratch.com for aerosol paint close to stock. rusto never made a specific color for any car.
