Ok so I decided i definately want to get the upgraded wheels instead of the stock ones. Until now I thought i only had the choice of the 18in Racing Hart with 225/40ZR-18 tires. But now I read there is a 19in Enkei package with 225/35ZR-19 all-season tires. So my question is....

1. I have seen the 18in but what do the 19's look like?
2. What are the differences in the wheels (ride quality etc.)
3. whats the difference in the tires (does one wear out quicker etc)
4. will the 19's rub with TRD springs?

Thanks a lot guys :D

 

You mixed them up. The 18" is a 7-spoke enkei. The 19" is a split 5-spoke Racing Hart wheel. Search for more pics.

 

i got that info from the Road and Track review, so i guess they were wrong? or someone is wrong. but anyways can anyone tell me anything else?

 

ok does anyone actually own the 18's or 19's?....maybe no one has them??

Edit:
found pics of the two wheels, just thought i would put them up.


please correct me if these are not them. thanks

 

If I were you I would personally go for the 18" TRDs. They are nice. They have pics posted at partznet

 

I would really like to have the 18" Enkeis. I think they're better looking than the two TRD wheels as well as the stock wheels. I just can't justify the price, especially since it already comes with the 17s. Also, if I get the 18s through my dealer, they aren't going to take back or give me a credit for the 17s. So I'd be stuck with an extra set of wheels (which I probably wouldn't want to use for snow tires) and tires. I don't have any clue how much I could sell the stock wheel and tire package for.

 

oo those are nice, i like them a lot. Do you think the dealer could get them for me?
For anyone who hasnt seen them I thought I might as well put them up to let you compare.

 

i placed my order for my BSP tC with the 18" enkei rims. it cost $1069 at port. but i'm still thinking about if i should cancel it. it does seem a bit pricey... and i might be able to find somthing cheaper. let me know what you guys think... should i get or not get for 1069? anyone out there already have them, how do you like it?

 

u can always buy my wheels
thier 17s
but so pretty

 

are you trying to sell your stock 17"? b/c if i get my 18" scion enkeis, i will also be trying to sell those. are there people actually going to buy them? i heard the market is over stocked with stock tc rims

Go with 18"..19" are really hard to sell and they are more expensive than 20" usually

Also...Enkei is a good name but if something happens to the rims it's goingto take a long time and alot of money to repair or get new ones,IMO stay away from Enkei unless your certain that they'll be perfect.

 

19's................

 

if your gonna get 19"s jus tput the money out and get 20"s!their cheaper

 

20's dont fint under a 2" drop.
Goldline drop and 19's look tight.

 

I need a little help...

I am thinking about getting the konig unkown 18" wheels for my Scion TC.

What size would be better 18x7.5 or 18x8 and what size tires for them.

Thanx in advance

 

19's will look the best.

and you know you want to stand out from the rest of the tc's out there so dont limit yourself to trd. there are so many wheel styles out there that look better then the trd ones.

i have 19's and i prefer the ride quality over the 17s.

 

Pics show your picks.
oh and what size wheels are you running?

 

19x8.5 with Falken st-115 225/35/19's

 

I like those Stern wheels.the St11s caught my attention recently
I don't like the BSP w/ black sterns though.too much black IMO
