I'm all for people trying to wedge too wide wheels in there, but this is too much.

Hey that's your opinion. More power to you. If you think thats retarded then talk to the japanese folks that do it and are inspiring us to go big or go home. They do numerous things that we obviously follow being fans of the JDM culture. If you have nothing good to say shut the F*CK UP

All I have to say is for those of you who doubt or trash talk, give it a chance. You don't have to come in here and say negative things. Instead try to help out. The only negative I want is CAMBER!!! Just like they do in Japan...

THEY MAKE poop FIT!!

Thank you to those who support not just me but who support and help everyone else out. And I thought this was supposed to be a SUPPORTING SCION COMMUNITY...

WHATEVS....

Okay, just so you're aware, if you post pics, you're gonna get opinions, both good and bad. Also, not a good idea to tell a site moderator to shut the eff up...

Oh yea, the hardcore JDM guys wouldn't run Rotas if their life depended on it.

Ah! That's not going to fit without some extensive body work. You are now looking at cutting up the rear finders to add some extra large flares & even with that, they are not going to fit that well. Maybe you should sell these off & go 1" less with a 16x8 or something. If not, it's going to be a really tight fit.

WOW we have name calling now. Thats great. I've had soooo many people that have told me that SCIONLIFE people love to talk sh*t. One thing is that I never said that hardcore JDM guys would run rotas but being into the import scene is a lifestyle. What I was trying to get at is the inspiration that we get from japan. This is like art and about expressing your creativity. They do so much crazy sh*t in Japan. So now what you are telling me is that Sportmax is better to have than Rotas?? Cause I could have sworn that I saw the BBist xB support the whole sportmax wheel thing. Those are also replica style rims. To me it's the same thing. I like my rims and I think they look great and I will make them fit. I'm curious on how it's going to look. Now to talk about telling a Super Mod to shut the f*ck up to me is not being an idiot. I don't care who you are but if you come in and say something is retarded is kind of offensive. At least try to use a different choice of words to say that you don't like it. I'm all about freedom of speech but dayam I was asking questions. So whatever. Super mod or not...

I

HATERS!!!
You are my motivation!
-Thank you for being such D***'s.

Here are some pics for you guys...

The subject and his first post give a ton of information and somewhat answer your question.

BTW - while I'd never even attempt that look - it's your car, do what you want.

I want wide wheels but DAMN thats crazy but I definately give you props for doing what you wanna do!

-Thank you for being such D***'s.

This attitude isn't going to get you very far here. I'd like to refer you to the rules (which you agreed to before you were allowed to make your first post). https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=15164

Pay specific attention to:
-Use only language acceptable in public. Misspelled profanity is still profanity. If you must cuss, use "#&$*#@%!!"
-Any personal attack to a member will not be tolerated.
7. If you receive a warning from a moderator, heed it. Members who ignore moderator warnings will be banned.
-Moderator's decisions are final as they keep this site in check!
-Attacking a moderator is not a good idea! You will pay!

Now that we got that out of the way. Ditch the attitude and play by the rules. My personal style opinions aside, I want to see this when it's done, so consider this a one-time pass.
