it's just the way the spoke and the lip are

your not focusing on the edge of the rim to the tire, instead you are looking at the spoke.

dude dont ever considere anything like that thats junk

if you want power to back you up try a real turbo or the super charger.

that thing doesnt work i have no idea why you would consider that. plus i think it wouldnt be good for the car, its not even make specific

plain and simple its not worth it and its junk

the TRD super charger just had a price drop for the 05-06 models
MSRP: $2,130.00

Your Sale Price: @ TRDsparks.com
$1,850.00

for 07-08 the price is
MSRP: $3200.00

Your Sale Price: @ TRDsparks.com
$2950.00

the center of the wheel are the spokes,

support consisting of a radial member of a wheel joining the hub to the rim

youll probably laugh at me but is this any good or will it not help at all? cause theres no way i would spend 2000 for a supercharger and almost another 2000 for a drop and new rims

i didnt even open tha link cause i read "electricchargers.com"


man none of these things work, if you want a carger whether it's super or turbo dont cheap out on your car.

that stuff is ricer status.

plain and simple you get what you pay for

and that will do nothing for your car
