I wanna get some wheels, and I found a set that i can get for cheap. They are the 5 spokes from a AE86 SR5 coupe. Now, because its a rear wheel drive offset, will it fit my AE92 wagon? I think it'll look good with my new paint job!
A cheap easy upgrade in handling and braking is the tyre and wheels...
alloys are good as they reduce the unspung weight...but can get expensive
I gave my alloys to dad for chrissy as i was gunna get some 17 inch rims but lost my work due to a back injury! So to keep the car going i went to a toyota service parts centre and got a set of 15 inch steel rims of a current model corolla (eg a car had alloys fitted as a factory option and the rims were kept by the service centre) bottom line is that they fit over my larger brakes..take 195/50/15 tyers and cost a slab of beer!!!!!
auto places sell some very nice hub caps now that look like mags anyway
hope this helps as i know your on a tight budget.....
A nice touch i did to my car also was getting headlight covers and tinting them heaps and cutting two holes in each to give the appearence of four lights....cheap mod and works good
I think i might go for the SR5 AE92 rims...I know where I can get them from a 1991 SR5 corolla coupe...the spoked ones..or I might go for the 01-02 corolla S rims....maybe someone could do a photoshop of the spoked SR5 rims? heres a pic of my wagon
Thanks guys...helps a lot...ill try and post pics of the bodywork...painted bumpers here I come!
