nice choice theyre are the exact rims im saving for, to put on the exact same car but in white, are they 17" or 18", im going for 18s i think.

if you dont mind me asking what did you pay for them, rrp is $2000 with rubber from tempe in syd

looks nice, may wanna drop the suspension next, but im a fan

This is a pick of them on my mates series 1 which is white, they looked good on that too.

Yeah I got them for $2100 but thats with the finance recovery cost added on top which is around 12%.

They are 18 x 8.5 with 235's on the front and 265's on the rear. Youll need to be careful though because on both my mates S1 and my S2 the front rubs on the control arm at full lock. They couldnt get the right combination of spacers either. So in the end they added a 3mm spacer and grinded about 3mm out of the control arm where is was rubbing. Very small amount grinded, and now they are fine. Grip has improved alot.

And yeah, please do take the photo and lower it, would love to see it.

leaving 1-2cm between the wheel well? and the tyres makes the car look best......I personally don't understand this obsession with "dumping it on its ass" look that so many people go for. Makes people looks such try hards.

yeah lowering it doesn't look that much better, I'd get some cool sideskirts that'll make the car look lower without you having to drive 2km/hr over speed bumps. The AH and JU ones from CARMATE looks pretty nice

Yeah, maybe thats the way to go. I plan on changing the suspension down the track, so that will probably have an effect to begin with, and ill go from there.

Nice rims dude..

But i still like your mesh time types rims (in your sig)

But as somebody already said it needs more lowering. You dont fully have to dump it and go 2kms an hour over speed humps..

Right height and it will look the goods..

Add your pics to this thread if you can:

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
