what's up everyone,

newbie here, got myself an 06 BSP 5 speed.

just wondering, since scionlife is so overloaded w/ info. can anyone start some organized sitckies for the wheel/tire fitment?

i'm looking for wheels myself, but more time i spent either in this forum or SL. more confuse i get.

i was thinking maybe have a sticky for every wheel diameter. for example:

sticky: 15" wheel fitment guide
sticky: 16" wheel fitment guide
sticky: 17" wheel fitment guide
and so on...

in every sticky, people should state the following:
-brand
-color (or post a picture)
-width
-offsets, front and rear
-lip size
-tire size
-suspension mods (inches lowered/rear camber shims/spacers, etc.)
-fender mods (rolled/cut/pulled/widebody, etc.)
-rubbing issues
if i miss something, please add...

that is all,
shabba!!!

isnt that kinda what wheel gallery is for? to see wheels of a certain size. most people have info about their wheels there. that, and i know Tommy is currently working on getting a wheel list organized with a lot of brands. im sure he'll introduce it here soon.

and i dont think theres enough people on here that know about wheels. theyre all still at SL...

hey scotty, thanks for the info, but i've been to the wheels gallery many time, most of the pictures only states the typical "diameter x width"

it's just really frustrating/confusing to pm everyone and asking their wheel specs.
plus most people won't reply right away. i was just hoping that people who have aftermarket wheels would spend some time adding their info to a thread and letting us know about it.
isn't it why a message board is created?

just my thoughts,
shabba

by the way, who is tommy?

[ric2542]

yo tommy thats pretty awsome what a great idea and what a way to shop wheels it's like a fashion show of wheels with mod-dolls OMC

 

[AirecK]

i just submitted some pics...

 

[clubxbdave]

Thanks ric... im still working on it ... theres still alot of features i want to add but the basic idea is there

 

[AirecK]

...nice!!!!

 

[clubxbdave]

Added a couple of features in the wheel gallery...



Hope that helps... this would function similiar to a wheel sticky... since in a sticky it would be hard to organize...
