|
|
Hey guys-
I just bought a set of TC wheels for my girls XD (paid 70 bucks for all four) and I plan on powder coating them black (on a black XD and then tint the tails) and wrapping them with 225/45/17s. But I really want to see how they fit on these cars, and if it will need spacers to fill out the wheel wells after a modest drop (either TRDs or Nf210s).
So after all of that, I am simply looking for some XDs with Stock TC wheels.
Thanks!
Ben |

| Thanks, looks sick! Could I get some shots off the car to see how they fill the wells out? Just some shots running down the side of the car. That does look sick, now I am really excited to get this done! |

Thanks -
I running the stock 215/45-17 that came with the wheels. I got the wheels and tires off craigslist from a 2008 TC that the guy wanted to put 18s on. They only had 150 miles on them and i got them for $100 a piece... |

I love hug tires on vehicles, so, my Scion dealer told me that 245-40-18s would fit, all the way around, I bought 4 Michelins off a guy (tires are like new) for 150.00 for all 4. Well, they only fit on the back! The front hit, so, I bought 2 225-40-18s for the front.
I've always liked larger tires on the back, and smaller on the front anyway. |
