i didnt think 20's would fit lol

so i have been doing alot of research on the 002's and from what i found is that even with the s-techs i have now i will rub and would need to roll the fenders....my problem with rolling the fenders is i heard of many people cracking the paint when they did it and with the paint that is on my car i can't afford to crack it......i want these rims but im just not sure if i really will rub if i keep the s-techs on that i have now.....Jim you had these wheels before right? Do u think i will be safe with the s-techs and not rolling the fenders???

heh probably not. they rubbed like a fat chick in spandex lol.

dont roll the fenders yourself. pay a shop to do it. make sure they do it right. Im going to wind up cutting out the inside of my fenders to push my 19's out further, and then run camber plates.

i seen that steve (dasaint) was running the 002's with the s-techs and he had minor issues with the back rubbing...

So pretty much any local body shop can do it? Did your paint crack at all? Im sorry bout all the questions i just wanna make sure everything will bo ok before i order these......and i figure if im gonna roll the fenders i might as well get the df210's haha

i dont know about a local body shop. Call around and ask. I never had my fenders rolled. I said i'm going to cut my fenders. I think you're going to have rubbing issues no matter what u do.

nothing beats getting off of the phone with your ins company making a statement cuz the person you barely hit is filing injury claims.

the ins lady said that she doubts anything will get paid out but she needed to take a statement from me about what happened. then we talked about how LITTLE damage was done to the honda.

what a joke, i hit the lady going 2.78 mph. my monday just keeps getting better

or you can heat up the paint with a heat gun and do it that way.

....or you could take it to a professional....

Hey guys. I need to ask you all for a HUUUUUGE favor. The Scion Dealership where I bought my car is having it's first Scion get-together. It is NOT an actual show (ie- no trophies), but it is an event meant to show off your car. I know the Scion salesman that is putting this deal together and I told him that I might be able to get a few friends with awesomely modded Scions to come to this event to get some of the "stock" ppl interested in modding their cars. So please, please, PLEASE consider coming out to this event. I would very much appreciate gauging interest in Scions here in the Poconos. Event details below:

Halterman's Toyota/Scion
400 Analomink RD
East Stroudsburg, PA
18301

Here's a chance to celebrate your Scion. Bring your Scion out and party with us. We'll be here with our tC.

Join us for our first Halterman's House Party, Thursday, September 20, 2007, from 6:30pm - 8:30pm. Since we are Halterman's Scion, we have to do this right. Our live guest performers will include Mystere and DJ Chainsaw at this catered event.

Are you a gamer? We'll have PS3's and 60" TV's available with Dance Dance revolution, among other games.

Just to make sure everyone has a good time, we'll be giving away the following:
iPod Shuffle
Flip Video Digital Camera
Wireless Bluetooth Speaker Phone
Halterman's Scion Sports Packs


Please, let me know if you plan to attend so I can give my contact at the dealership an estimate of how many ppl plan to attend. THANKS AGAIN!!!!!
