hey im looking at buying 18" Work Vs-xx but i got a few questions. im trying to get a flush look on a dropped tc with TRD struts and H&R springs, about a 1.3in drop. im not exactly sure what wheel width and offset i should be going. also, is there a TPMS sensor that i can get that will fit this rim?

 

if you want to go flush info on rim width would def help...

and you can either take the TPMS out of your stock setup and transfer it or purchase a new set. (theyre kinda pricey)

 

8.5in +23 on the offset in the rear will be pretty flush and i think like 8.5in +27? maybe sounds good for the front... there are a few guys running the work vs-xx...look in the rare/custom wheel thread

 

yellow:i was thinking about taking the TPMS from the stocks but i heard that they usually dont fit on aftermarket rims

tricky: thanks i think ill pm some guys there

 

yeah..i forgot his name but its a flint mica with gold vs-xx... probably one of the nicest fitments ive seen.

flintmicatc?

Those are 19" custom AutoArts, not VS-XX's.



Ohhhh yea I forgot skyon got the gold vsxx's with sick fitment. .... sigh

 

where did you hear that the TPMS has issues going onto aftermarket rims? I've never heard of anyone with that problem?

 

its a sticky, 07+ have the monitors in the valve stem.

 

no i know they do I'm just saying I've never heard of anyone having issues transferring them to new wheels that's all

 

multi piece wheels usually have different types of valve stems, like take Rays for example cus im familiar with them on my GT-Ps and GT-Vs the valve stems were out at a 90 degree angle because they had to go in the barrel and pass through the face. there arent any sensors for those that i know of. my SSRs were similar but not the same (ie they were different then stock) and the stock sensors wouldnt work with those, but they would work with a 1 piece wheel like konig or enkie (possibly).

 

1.3" is not low enough...needs moar low for good fitment



Fitment pic:


IMHO, needs more wide

 

ohhh ok..gotcha..sorry for my ignorance...now i know..and knowing is half the battle~! lol..

 

dave: so im outta luck for TPMS?? that kinda stinks is there a way to fix the light or am i gonna just have to ride with it?

sky: that looks sick, how much are you dropped? and what are the specs for your wheels?

every1else:thanks for answering my questions

 

i have an 07 and my tmps light or whatever it is has not gone off... yet. i was wondering what was gonna happen once i mounted them and nothing did.

 

??? kinda lost u there...

 

my bad... i thought a light or some sound goes off when you dont have tpms. my works are mounted on my car without tpms. my tpms are still on my stockers since they dont fit.

 

yea the tire pressure light is supposed to come on when u dont have the TPMS installed (the car isnt sensing any pressure signal coming from the sensor)

oh yea and what lugs are u using?

 

well no light came on yet. im using gorilla lock lug nuts.

 

it will take a littel while to get the light to come on most times.......mine takes like half an hour of driving to get it to trip on the Yaris.
