Well I put the new wheels on today for a little while to see what they looked like.....I love the look! Amazing in just what wheels can do for a car. Disregard the quite flat tires....haven't done anything to the wheels yet, even pumped up th tires, just put them on for a bit. Here ya go, comments welcome.

looks like you got yourself a old school x-runner...sweet ride is based towards show/go or both?

Yup yup, I'm loving them. They look really good. So what's the latest on the pickup?

Camread · 11-24-2006, 11:11 AM

are those old supra rims?

felkajamine · 11-24-2006, 12:07 PM

that was my first thought too, they look like the old school celica/supra rims, but those are WAY too big, i think the old celica rims were like 14/15's maybe, these look to be like 17's.

looking good, man! real good, better than the swirly thingies that you had!

^^They are 16"s

midnightmach · 11-24-2006, 03:15 PM

Very nice man!

Mushroom_Toy · 11-24-2006, 04:43 PM

Yup and everyone who doesnt know....theyre definitely not celica/supra rims. They are 16" 5x114.3 bolt pattern. They came off of a 1986 Mitsubishi Starion Turbo...nice car. As for lowering....I'm done with the back, might get some meatier tires for the back as well when I get to. But also I will lower the front just a tad more. I had the back pretty much done to an extent but didnt like how it felt so I went back to just a 3" drop. I'm now going for a musclecar stance.

^^Also the car is not really going to be a show car. All go, just as soon as I find a 7mgte, 5m tranny, and supra rearend. Also gotta find somewhere to store it all.

, and have to wait for some money to come in.

man if you can pull off supra Indie rear end instead of solid axle i say your tony of the 89-94 truck section.

TTercel · 11-24-2006, 07:44 PM

Oh damn, I love that thing makes me wanna go out and buy a pickup...LOL. Instead of the 7MGTE why dont you go 1UZFE, might be more expensive but at least you have some bragging rights saying you got a V8 LOL...

Looking very nice..... Starions are like the only Mitsu I like, and have always liked the wheels...... Good job!!!
