Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior if you 19 inch rims, open this!

if you have 19" on your celica, let me know how much you lowered it and if you have any problems with the wheel well or turning or bumps. i have the trd lowering springs right now and want to lower it more but im afraid of problems.
let me know, thanks.

Hey if you sell yuor TRD springs i'll buy them.

get coilovers

I have 19" rims and lowered 1.8" and have never rubbed.

8,5x19" ET30 rims on 235/35 tyres - lowered the car about 2.4" up front, and 2.8" rear. NO problems, what so ever.

If you'll have a problem or not heavily depends on what width and offset your wheels are.

19s good lord..just get tractor tires and lift it up...

I guess it hurts that some of us can afford to buy some new cool rims, instead of having to paint our stock wheels to try and make'em look new, huh?

how much of a drop is TRD?

trd springs- 1.25" drop

you need a sig

i have 2 of the illest sigs but i cant figure out how to have the actual pic come up.

i can make you one if you want

Most of us can afford 19" rims but prefer not to get them. The tire is about as thin as paper, they are heavy and look funky IMO. 19's are cool if you dont drive your car hard and just use the car for shows. I dont understand how you do not rub with 19" wheels and the drop you have. Do you have pics of your car or no?

aww..did i offend you??? you have nice cool SLOW rims...but hey you are for show so they fit you well, i know you prolly get smoked like shit on the street, but thats your choice!!

19's isn't a problem, even if you use your car every day. I've used the celica for a year now, driven it every day to work etc, on 19's. And my last car (a volkswagen golf) also had 19's, and used that every day.

I returned a complete body kit I got last summer because of fitment issues, and ended up driving around with the car almost stock - so I wasn't very happy with it - and ended up taking only 1 decent picture of it. And here it is:

19s...

For the pice of 19 i can get 18 or 17 plus coilovers and tires and my shit will look cool also so I say get more for the buck 19s or any rim wont make the whole car its just a part of it.

yeh, but if you can afford 19s, then you should get them coz they look awesome!
that's what i'm gonna do anyway! and will also lower the car, etc etc

Harsh man ...your car must have been slow with the 19s

i got 19's and love them!! i don't have my car lowered though because charleston roads suck. however i was thinking about kitting a coilover kit just for the look of the springs. heres a pic of the 19's though

yea i don't race, i got a gt
