*3/10/10 photoshoot on page #2

I've had my car for two years now and I haven't gotten aftermarket wheels/tires until now. I'm very happy with them :)

Tell me what you think about the photography and the car itself. I love my car!

These are just some of the photos from the photoshoot this past weekend!
These photographers are part of my crew from CupcakeMeet.Com

Comments? Questions?

looks good

No stickers or volk center caps for me. Haha

haha good good,

and the car looks pretty good :)

what are the sizes?

:clap: good job tiffany! i saw those pics on facebook, but the car looks great!

18x8.5 with 225/40/18 Nexxen 7000 tires

:clap: good job tiffany! i saw those pics on facebook, but the car looks great!
Thank you!! :rolling:

Looks good :)

not bad I like it. not as aggressive as those 9.5's that every1 has now, like these much better. looks good.

I love the gold rims on the SW...And I like how you threw Domo in the tail pipe...Do yourself a favor and get a carbo hatch to complete the look from front to back, and I've never liked those tails, but I know a lot of ppl do...

what offset did you go with?

I love the gold rims on the SW...And I like how you threw Domo in the tail pipe...Do yourself a favor and get a carbo hatch to complete the look from front to back, and I've never liked those tails, but I know a lot of ppl do...

It's not a SW. It's a RS3, blizzard pearl color :] I has those special tYC tailights hehe

and yeah, thinking about getting the cf hatch toooo

-looks hot, wish i had a SW tc to start with. wonder how those would look on my BCP tc.

It's not a SW. It's a RS3, blizzard pearl color :] I has those special tYC tailights hehe

and yeah, thinking about getting the cf hatch toooo

Daannngg...My bad, I thought it looked a lil off on the color, but it does look good though, mine was a SW and I loved the white...

thought these are the rota grids??

^^Yes they are rota grids.


Car looks good, what are you lowered on and do you have any problems rubbing?

ohh oki.. for awhile i thought they were volks.. haha

TRD springs? More low I would say to compliment your other mods better. I have TRD and want to go lower. Oh, and you should sell me your RS3 grill!

car looks good.. nice choice of rims.. i have the same style but in bronze.. not a big fan of gold.. but just a suggestion from the picture i see that the exhaust might be touching the right side of the bumper.. you should really move it a bit to the left cause then later on your bumper will mess up real quick.. wouldnt like to see the pearl to turn flat black..

Looks good Tif. Congrats on the new wheels!!

Looks great. Love the gold wheels...

rock on

car looks nice. i'd like to see more side shots with more light though

Oh, and you should sell me your RS3 grill!
there's one for sale in the classifieds.

how dare you place Domo in your exhaust :mad: SHAME on you!

Update pics :]

very clean

I love those seats!

who's 350z is that, looks amazing.

i like your rs3. it has come a long way.

Ish is hot.

do you have any problem with rubbing because im on trd's also and love the way the rotas look and have always wanted them but im wondering if they rub?

SEXAY tC & Z

looks great! is that really your license plate number xxx xxx? if so thats awesome lol

Looks Schweet!...

Just a personal Opinion..ok?...Not feeling the EVO looking hood.

I like the wheel color it compliments the RS3 color well.

TeeCizzle, I had this hood for about 2 years. I'm selling it to this guy in San Antonio. Getting a CF OEM hood to make it look more together, should get that hood next month. Just wanted to get more pictures taken before the hood is departed.

Haha, nooo, that's not really what my plates are. I didn't even realized my photographer changed it to that! :]

I have no problems with rubbing. Haven't rolled fenders or anything.

That's my photographer's Z! My sponsor did a lot of work to that Z and it looks amazing!! (Sideways Auto Salon)

Thanks for the compliments!!

I'm thinking of selling my wheels or maybe trading. Nothing wrong with them, I like the panda gold look. I had them for about 6 months? I just keep wanting to change things. :]

I really like the look of your RS3. Very simple and clean, nicely done.

1st set of pics: meh. Pretty average. Looks like a PnS.

2nd set of pics: really digging these. Very nice work.

3rd set of pics: too much PP and the rest are meh.

Still dig the tC though.

Each photographer has their own unique ways in taking the photos :] I like the photos they took! I'll post up more photoshoots with other photographers soon!

Thanks for the compliment on the car! Just trying to go really simple. Once I get the OEM CF Hood on, it'll look better than ever :]

The 2nd set of pictures is one of my own personal photographer and close friend! He's been improving his skills and each shots he's been taking have been great!

it looks awesome! i'm loving the gold rims =)

are these the 18x8.5 or 18x9.5? just wanted to double check.

These are 18x8.5.
I was thinking of doing the 18x9.5 route, but decided on these :]

Thanks, MIA :icon_surprised:

any rubbing?

nice, slick, and clean :]

Hey tif,

Expect new pictures with a couple of cars that....are no where near how much a Scion tC cost with my car soon :money:!!

I don't have any rubbing issues! :]

Thanks. Alexis!!

Will, Yes please. I bet Ty want in on this too, but I only want my car next your beautiful G! Haha!
When are you free?!

When are you free?!

I am always free!
Sadly the G is about to be out of commission for more then a month. I am dropping it off at UPREV next week. I am getting a new built engine so I can up the boost... aiming for 450RWHP. And then as soon as it is done there I need to take it to Sideways Auto Salon to get my new front/rear bumpers and CF trunk painted and installed.

So to answer your question... sometime in May lol.

I want to get these but I'm real curious if i'd rub on 9.5 on a hotchkis drop with 225/40 tires. If so I'll get the 8.5 instead. And is it just me or do the 8.5 seem a little less concave or is it just the angle of the pics?

I am always free!

Always free? Shoot me a text so I have your #. Do you want to take the photos or do you want me to ask one of my friends to take it? I know I can't take the photos. *Me = AMATEUR, haha!*

450 WHP, greatness. Man, makes me wonder how much I can do to a tC, lol.
Glad you're happy with UPREV and going to Sideways Auto! When you say, "get it painted", are you having the whole car in just one color??

kcscion, most likely you'll need to roll your fenders. The 8.5 does seem a lot less concave than the 9.5. I think the 9.5 looks really aggressive like that. I just didn't want to get my fenders rolled and all that jazz.

I got my wheels at wheeldude.com :] great service. I got them in 3 days!

The car looks great. Keep up the good work.

My bad about my car being dirty in these photos. More professional pictures coming up to show off the new OEM CF hood :]

omg to that civic with the rear end conversion :love:

lulz and idk about "professional" pictures, cause i sure as hell hope you didnt pay someone for them lol, ____ even if they were free there still not professional lol

The last pictures I posted weren't professional. These are all taken by friends. I haven't paid for any photos to get done. And when I said "more professional pictures", I meant another photographer to take real good quality photos than the ones I just posted.

Thanks, Scion!

ohh ok wheww! cars look good! more pics of that civic with the rear end conversion

They look good. You should have went with the more aggressive set up though...the 18x9.5 that you spoke of.

Here are some pictures friends took at the Imported Performance & Cupcake Meet 7: Cupcakin' For Kids Car show in Dallas this past Saturday:

I'll be having a photoshoot soon when I get my new wheels :]

I think it looks better now lower. Are the coilovers at their lowest setting? What's the plans for the new wheels or you keeping that hush-hush?

Nope, the coils aren't on it's lowest setting. We had to tear out the fender liner because the tires were ripping from it. I autocross the tC, so I don't want to go too low :]

The new wheels I'm considering are gold VSXX or thinking about volks. I'm interested in something with a big lip :]

Looks fresh Tiff!

So bummed that I had to miss CCM7. I keep seeing pics EVERYWHERE, looks like it was an awesome turnout... CONGRATS!

damn, these are the best looking rota grids imo. congrats!!

Love how the hood to roof flows, well done!!

Yep, still in Killeen. K&R seems pretty popular. I have driven by there a few times but never actually stopped. It looks pretty run down... but I guess you can't judge a book by it's cover!

nice drop tiff. i like it. you know how the roads are around here. pot hole central. you going to be around for the scikotics all state meet next weekend? i might go if im still in town.

Thank you!
Any lower and I would rub like a mother. :] I like how it is~

Where's that meet going to be at??
There's going to Heat Wave in Austin so I'm going to that :]

Okay guys and gals we are working on putting together a meet for the entire South Central region. This isn't a car show really just a get together to hang out.

We'll be having it in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and will be the weekend of July 23-25. On Friday there is a Scion Drag and Brag for those that get there early enough to go. On Saturday were working on getting discount passes to Six Flags Texas. And on Sunday we'll get together for breakfast and then head home.

We're still ironing out all the details and as more information becomes available I'll update this post.

Looks Good

-really clean looking

Thats a nice set up.

MOAR LOW

paradox idk if you posted the specs on those rims, but what are they? im gettin those rims too soon after i lower my baby...looks good on white, will look good on flint mica too :D

MANiAK, read EVERY page of this thread. Hint: the size and width is on page 1, offset is on the previous page.

Thanks :]
I scrape even when I'm this low, so no thanks. I autocross the poop out of my car so I'm glad I'm not rubbing or anything like that. I rock with no fender liner though to make that happen.

I love how it is now & thank you for the compliments!
More info on the wheels are on the first page & the wheels are for sale: info on them is under the wheels for sale tab

looks good!

Got a chance to see your car in person @ the Cup Cake meet in dallas a few weeks ago. Real clean! You were all over the place so I didnt get a chance to intro myself though. lol I was there w/ the red and white turbo tc...
