i am not guaranteeing my answers to be 100% correct

[cali yaris]

LOL. What are you doing to your car now that you took off the turbo kit?

[33OH]

Let me even ask you a question about Rota's: what should I search for to find a wheel similar to this design? (i.e. ebay, craigslist, classifieds..) :biggrin:

15X7, +35 will be fine. minimal rubbing will occur that can be solved with a heatgun to the bumps in your fender liners.

they'll be released for sale by the first of june.

with that wheel/tire package, you could easily run 13MM

they are great with autocrossing, are a great "in addition to" mod when doing a swaybar.

I'm only asking $750 for rims and tires that were purchased for $2850 last year. And have low miles on them, only ran last summer and a little this spring.

[ROCKLAND TOYOTA]

nice wheels but 750 buys a new set of knockoff's.....

have we learned our lesson about spending lots of money on "name brand" wheels?

Oh, I didn't spend the money. The dude I bought them off of did. I got a hell of a deal. :biggrin:

ah, sounds deceptive!

[33OH]

ah, sounds deceptive!

The guy who purchased them bought them for $2850 last year, not me. I just picked them up a few months ago, February or March-ish.

[Tamago]

ok, moving forward, more questions.

[33OH]

Okay sorry.

Question: In relativity to other 17" rims, is 17 lbs. each a decent weight?

[Nexus1155]

Compression ratio is 9.3:1 and the air will be cooled via FMIC which keeps a lower Delta IAT than the other aftermarket ones. Fuel will be shot into it with 60# (770cc?) injectors

[Tamago]

depending on offset, 17lbs for a 17X7 is acceptable for a wheel.
