You are an idiot.
rhythmnsmoke 04-08-2006, 05:01 AM Nice, but the wheels really don't come out, cause they are the same color as the car. They are to close to the look of the OEM wheels, that they really don't do much for me. Just my 2 pennies. But congrats nonetheless, if your happy that's all that matters.

I thought that too.. but they look really good in person. The polished lip catches the light and makes them pop a bit. It's my gfs car anyway, so I wanted to keep it kind of sedate and classy.
Niteridr75 04-08-2006, 05:08 AM Why am I an idiot?
lukkytoodye 04-08-2006, 05:09 AM i can tell that the photo is real by the side showing the lip and spoke, but i can see how from the direct side shot he thought it wuz photo chop, nice rims by the way.
LargeORangeFont 04-08-2006, 05:11 AM Why am I an idiot?
it is clearly not a photoshop.nless you were being scarcastic, then I take it back.
LargeORangeFont 04-08-2006, 05:12 AM i can tell that the photo is real by the side showing the lip and spoke, but i can see how from the direct side shot he thought it wuz photo chop, nice rims by the way.
Yea the rear rim looks a little fuzzy in both side shots.
Niteridr75 04-08-2006, 05:12 AM thats 100% photoshopped, the windows have the same reflections, there is now way you can replecate that unless you left the car there and changed the tires in the same exact spot, clearly photoshopped
Niteridr75 04-08-2006, 05:13 AM i take it back, im a fool. im a little tipsy my bad

Yea you are an idiot. Cars generally don't move when the wheels are off. Your "theory" is exactly what happend. The car stayed stationary while I swapped wheels and tires.
Niteridr75 04-08-2006, 05:20 AM Ease up. Honest mistake. No need to be an e-thug. By the way i dont like them.
tC9o9 04-08-2006, 05:21 AM those wheels i dont really like...they are nice but its not really doing anything for me, but :clap:
nightwishkid 04-08-2006, 05:21 AM its not shopped the mirrows dont have the same reflection. and 1 pic had his gf's head and 1 doesnt. i see the tire spacers. it looks nice even tho i am not a tc guy i am looking to do that on my xb
DTRUONG_112 04-08-2006, 06:10 AM dont like them. Maybe if they were another color.
tC9o9 04-08-2006, 07:04 AM its definately not chopped...take a look at the stop sign, the position of the car in relation to it is completely diffrent, so next time you wanna make an A$$ umption, do the research
Kilo6_one 04-08-2006, 07:29 AM where are the centercaps? or do you have to pay seperate for those? some volk dealers are shady and make you pay extra for them..........
Hyghgynx 04-08-2006, 08:24 AM Pics do them no justice. Probably look 100Xs better in person. Might I suggest you look into painting the calipers black? For that 'stealth' look and to set off the color of the rims.
SciontCya 04-08-2006, 08:35 AM Ease up. Honest mistake. No need to be an e-thug. By the way i dont like them.
1) You were an idiot to post that stupidity.
2) YOU were the "e-thug"
3) Nobody cares if you like them.
:no:
scrap 04-08-2006, 04:20 PM its not photoshopped you can tell, in the first pic the sun is hitting the whole car in the side profile pic the sun is only hitting the front of the car. Look at the detail before you make statements people. Nice rims thou!!!
MJVsTC 04-09-2006, 12:52 AM Good choice of highly quality wheels. Finally, someone with conservative taste.

Thank you!
Reese 04-11-2006, 01:03 PM it doesnt look chopped to me the car isnt sitting in the same spot if you really look at the pic BUT anyways. The wheels to me dont seem like an upgrade Like I had to scroll back up to notice the difference. For some reason they kinda look stock to me.
PrettyniceB 04-11-2006, 01:25 PM The last picture at an angle are starting to grow on me, but my first initial impression was like, Whateverrrrrr! Its not pimpin in anyway, that's a guarrantee
Now the first pic, with the stocks are starting to look 1990's or somewhat throwback or outdated.
I need to stop looking at tires.... theres no difference (unless u stare for 2 or 3 minutes)

South OC So Cal I want a reply!!!!! JudgeMeToo!!!!
heyitznosaj 04-11-2006, 02:19 PM +35 offset sits perfectly flush with the tC. I would have chose a different color though but nice rims.
LargeORangeFont 04-11-2006, 05:14 PM This is my girlfriends car... she is 28, not 20. It doesn't need to bling, nor do I want it to. I wanted it to look like a much classier car then the $17K price tag suggests, and stand out from all the stock TCs running around here.
mrwilson99 04-12-2006, 02:23 AM Personally I hate gray scions. Those rims look like stocks.
MJVsTC 04-12-2006, 02:24 AM I think they kick a$$. Not flashy and high quality. I'm just not into the whole "2 inch crome lip" craze.
LargeORangeFont 04-12-2006, 04:46 AM I think they kick a$$. Not flashy and high quality. I'm just not into the whole "2 inch crome lip" craze.
Don't get me wrong, I like the deep lip look...just not on ugly ricer wheels.
My car has about an inch and a half.

LargeORangeFont 04-17-2006, 09:05 PM 03 Cobra?? Now you just need a Kenne Bell!!!!!
It's an 04..same difference.
Its got 500+ to the wheels now with a ported stock blower. I'll be getting a turbo kit for it next year and skipping the larger supercharger. :)
j3st3r 04-18-2006, 01:41 AM So LargeORangeFont what do you think of these!!

LargeORangeFont 11-08-2006, 04:54 PM I took some more pics. I will be adding them soon!
DonnyDarko 11-10-2006, 04:42 AM Gratz on Wheels I know what I got mine on I was flippin out!
CuRiOuSfIsH 11-12-2006, 03:55 AM +35 offset sits perfectly flush with the tC.
I agree, the offset is perfect! I'm usually not a fan of those wheels, but it definately makes the car more classy and perhaps more "European"?

Yes that was the look I was going for. I wanted upscale, not race.
eston 11-23-2006, 04:01 PM I absolutely love these wheels - they are probably the nicest wheels I've seen put on a Scion. If you don't mind me asking, how much were they (with tires)?
purpled_out_tC 11-23-2006, 07:15 PM You definetly got what you were trying to do. They RESEMBLE stock, but you can totally tell the difference. Not flashy whatsoever, clean. Props on the choice in brand also.
_CACKYWHEELS 11-24-2006, 07:29 PM Very subtle change, but I like it!
You must be well off to be putting that kind of rims on your girlfriend's car =)
LargeORangeFont 11-28-2006, 09:41 PM I absolutely love these wheels - they are probably the nicest wheels I've seen put on a Scion. If you don't mind me asking, how much were they (with tires)?
Thanks for the compliments.
I actually got these used. I found them on Craigslist and snatched them up. Their condition is about 9.5/10. Depending on style, Volks in this size would sell for $1600-$2000 for rims only.
purpled_out_tC 12-02-2006, 02:28 PM ^^^^WTF!!!!
Anyway nice setup!!
