Those F-Sport wheels look great. What are you going to do for centre caps? Would the F-Sport ones fit over the ends of the axles up front?Originally Posted by 2tCornot2tC
The F-Sport center caps do not fit over the front axle...and I got the tC TRD center caps...they don't fit either! They are too small...they fall into the hole. The F-Sport center hole is about 62-mm and the TRD is 60-mm. So I cut them both up and made custom ones...I f-ed 1 up experimenting...so I ordered 1 each to make a 4th one.
Anyone know anything about XXR wheels? The 518s and 522s both look interesting, are fairly lightweight and run under $200 a piece.
^ is it wellesley who got XXR? and is it papa_bear said he'll get XXR also?
and i've been checking them XXR 522... 400+ for 4 of em... so yeah i've thinkin about it too... but i know nothing about XXR. all i know is they're cheap. :D

I had the XXR 006 on my camry. Wouldnt say light weight but they didnt look bad and held up really well for driving daily on messed up roads.
Yup, I'm running XXR 006's on the tC2. Check my thread in my sig for pics/info/etc
I like the 518s better, but all I can seem to find is +43 offset and I'd really rather do 30-38 offset.
And they aren't really all that lightweight, but at 24 lbs for the 19x8.5s, they are much lighter than anything else I've seen at the same price in the same size.

^ yep definitely nice looking wheels. I think they're reps of the ProDrive GC-010E. Rota also has reps called T2R in 18x9.5 +38 but come at $250/wheel.
like you said, the NT03+M are awesome looking wheels but they only come in silver and since I have a cement tC, I don't know how a silver wheel would look on cement so I might settle for hyper black rota's

^ hyperblack only comes in 17" according to enkei's sizing chart. gold is probably custom colored. I know tougefactory did a limited edition on NT03+M in matte black but it's +20 which is a little too low for me. I think enkei does SBC special order if you order atleast 10 sets.

You can go as wide as 255 on an 8.5" rim, but hearing that 255s do rub a bit under load, I'm thinking 245/35R19s on a 19x8.5 rim. But it'll be a while, so I will most likely change my mind a few times before I actually make the purchase.
ahaah i change my mind again. ima buy exhaust first maybe next month. :D
but thanks for the info.
