Sportmax xxr 002?

[retartedasian]

So my next upgrade to my little car are going to be some wheels since i'm rolling on stockies (16x6) and they are REALLY sunken into my wheel wells. Was thinking about getting some xxr 002 16x8 0 offset for my car. These are the only sportmaxx wheels that they offer in 5x100 and 16". Any opinions on the wheels?Gonna go on 01 celica. If not anyone got other wheel opinions that won't blow my wallet. preferbaly wheels that are wider than 16x7 or 17x7

How xxr's look like on a celica

[theothermanoverthere]

Personally I don't like the look of them on that car.

You can find legit wheels for cheap if you look. Have a gander on your local craigslist. Don't buy weak fitment fake 3-piece XXRs.

If you are patient and thoroughly search, you can find some truly sick 3-piece wheels that are much wider than that for the give or take the same price as you'd pay for those XXRs. Also, you can consider running adapters. I would take this time, while you're looking at wheels, to pick up a set of 5x100 to 5x114.3 adapters. Rotiform makes them as thin as 15mm.

I'd love to get adapters but I dont really have the money to fork up $300+ for a 2 pairs of spacer and then another $400-$600 for some rims. I might as well get some gram lights or something with that.

My blunt opinion, that looks terrible on that car

[Kokuren]

I was never a fan of XXR's because they are cheap as hell.

I do for some reason like them on the celica. I would say do it. If you do not have cash, do not break the bank on a set of rims, and XXR's are nice and cheap.

Why? Hella flush or flush or what ever is for dumb a**'s who like ******** you there car. It's stupid to do it a dd car. You're talking about new tires ever month and you're rid is going to make so no chicks want to be in it. No chick like a broken back with ever car rid. It's IMO looks stupid.

being flush does not make your car ride like s**t. It means making the cars tires even with the fenders so that they are not sunken in. With a camber kit and a subtle drop my car's tires will wear out evenly. My gf drives my car so I could car less if girls want to be in it or not. that being said i'm not looking to super camber out my wheels. Just a rim wide enough with the correct offset to sit flush, no poke and no sunken

Oo well that's not as bad but you do know that drop in height means you have to make it stiffer so the rid is harder. Also if you camber the tries out then you a lot of wear on the one spot making them wear faster. As long as you keep the contact pach close to what it was its not that bad but any camber will make them wear faster how much camber will tell you how much faster.

Trust me, when you drop your car to the point of removing bump stops, no one who wants a comfortable ride will want to go with you. I like having no suspension travel, most people don't like it though because of the roughness. It can also leave you at the side of the road with a cracked oil pan, busted control arms, and much more than you can imagine if you do not drive carefully. Air ride is a more comfortable solution, but costly AF.

As for tires go, just pick up some hard compound cheap tires and stretch them over, I got a good 19,000 out of some coopers stretched around 18x10 sportmax 521's.

If you want flush, go to Stance Works. Consult with them to see if low it right for you. If not just go semi flush, semi slammed.

I got some KYB gr2's coming in, an 18mm sway bar, and some tanabe springs sitting on my floor ready to be cut so I can slam my lil semi slammed project.

lol I do want to slam the car, but i'm just on sleeves and tokico whites. so it doesnt get that low. Just gonna try a subtle drop to tire, maybe tuck a little bit, spacers, and call it a day. and 19000 miles out of cooper stretched tires, thats pretty good. How much did it cost you per tire? Why didnt you get the kyb AGX. I heard the gr2's were more OEM like.

The car is an elantra gt, and it gets like 40mpg on my way to LA. Its no sports car (beat a 325i yesterday from a 40 mph roll) but it gets the job done. I dont want to spend too much in terms of upgrades so I am going a cheap route. Plus I am getting the tiburon gr2's, because they are meant for a much heavier car, so it should make up the difference for the AGX's. It weighed in at 2691lbs at a truck scale with a 1/4 tank of gas, while the tiburon is over 2900 dry.

The AGX's are too pricey, and I could pick up some pretty decent coilovers for that much. I got the springs for $25 and the strut bar for $40 from a friend, both were lightly used, but no visible damage. The strut bar made a world of difference in handling.



The coopers were around $150 per tire. That car was an na 88 rx7 that was stripped down, and stanced on megan racing coilovers, with a s**t ton of negative camber in the rear. The tires wore pretty well, and if i remember correctly supposed to go on 18x8 or 7. Cannot remember the specs, but I got them from express tire with a bunch of discounts.
Stance I am going for

Losing to RX7 at 90mph

40mpg



Its an auto with really long gear ratios, 3rd gear topped out at 115 mph, hyundai was high when they made this tranny.
