well i tried to hold back from posting....but i just couldn't...pics just look too nice....got me some new shoes....

19x8 Moda R6's on 245/35-19 Toyo Proxes4

1) these tires grip like no other. oh my god, i'm in complete awe. only downside is going through construction sites, it does more than it's work of picking up every single damn pebble.

2) my right rear and front left is rubbing a bit when i hit a bump. i'm gonna raise the coils a bit, but i'm already working on gettin my fenders rolled. i guess the uneven height wasn't so noticable on 16's, but now on 19's, i can see it clearly, those 2 are lower than the others, which are NOT rubbing.

other than that, here ya go....so so yummy. i dont know why it looks like an extra large IS300.

 

dam lthat ooks nice with the drop

 

 

god i love those wheels, I am thinking about putting them on my 6th gen.. I had them in 18's on my forth but they were jacked.. BASTARDS

 

That looks awesome. If you don't mind me asking, how much did this wheel/tire setup cost you?

 

those rims look hot....& that DROP

 

Wheels/Tire Combo: ~$2k
Mounting and balance: $65
Smile on my face when i was done: Priceless
Frown on my face when i heard the fender rub all up into the tire: also Priceless

 

that's hot man....

 

i've been waiting for a 5genner to get the r6's and finally

 

Beautiful Polo.....so how low will u go now?

 

on the contrary man...front right has enough clearance to avoid the fender. front left does NOT. so that got raised and as of last nite, it's still too low and on tight turns, i hear it rubbing.
rear left is all good, rear right rubs on hard bumps, so that's gettin raised.

if i get the fenders rolled, then i'm prolly goin back down to a good tuck. and for shows, it's dragging on the floor.

thanx for the compliments guys. i actually think i'm done with the car...i've done everything i could possibly think of. nothing more to do but go turbo, which i don't plan on doing for another 2 years (more important debts to pay off)

i'm all out of ideas. anyone got any?

 

Your car is ugly.

 

I got an idea......hehehe.......WIDE BODY!!!!! (no rubbing)

 

Man, those wheels look fantastic. The lip really sets off the look too. I'm not much for tucking so I think it'll look even better after you raise her up a bit.

 

Hot! Hot! Hot!

 

Wow, that looks really amazing.... good choice in wheels, matches the car perfectly! someday my car will look that nice... after i pay off my car in 5 years... lol. well anyway, looking damnn nice!

-Chris

 

car looks great! what about some custom leather? i went through your pics and only saw cloth.

 

what tire size was you previous 16's?

 

hotness Polo...good job with it

 

PoLo......you've done a GREAT JOB!!!! Your ride is crazy.......

 

Beautiful, dude. Where in Queens are you, so I can keep an eye out for you?

 

WOW, those wheels look good on your max. Well done.

 

Two words. Low Rider

 

hey, car looks amazing. props on the rims

just wondering, where did you buy those rims??

-IgS

 

ChromeSE5 - will let you know when i get home

Arnold K - want my address too while you're at it. nothing against you man, but last thing i want is people knowing where to "look for me"....if you see me, you'll recognize me. no hard feelings. i don't trust many people on the org. stories have been told. things have happened.

Conrad - and to think it was lower, but it had to go up cause of the rubbing

IgS - Ange...Redlinemax....she'll beat tirerack if you're local.

Redstratic - i like the leather idea..some stiching on it perhaps...twotone...it's an idea..hmmm

 

cf hood? man there's always something more to do/improve.... =)

 

CF hood and some leather seats will look hot on that car. Are you going to be at HIN in philly on june 26?

 

what offset did you get? im goin to be buyin some axis's in 19x8 in a day or so

 

Are you serious? Well then I don't blame your suspicions then. I've had sh*t happen to my Max, too. Oh, well. Queens ain't that big and I've seen a handful of other org members around the highways and all. Congrats again.

 

thanx...ya gotta remember that just cause they're on the org, doesn't mean they're good people. we're all just as grimey as the person next to us. being on the org would prolly be a common thing amongst thieves, since we yap our mouths off about our mods (smack myself)

ChromeSE5: 16's were tire size of 215/55-R16

Phat2k1AE: i actually have no clue what the offset of these wheels are. anyway for me to find out. is it stamped somewhere inside the rim. i just bought them w/out really thinking about it. i personally didn't think 8's would really cause an issue. but...i guess they have!!

 

Oh BTW Marco, for promising not to post pics and then posting them.

 

Nice Marco......about time Pendejo !

 

They look great. I should know, I had them on the Max right after I got it in Oct 2002. I have the 18x 8" version with 245/40/18 Yokohama AVS ES100s. Not dropped yet, but still like the look. Pics are on my Car domain site.

 

Looks hot. Very nice rims!

 

wow.. thats what i want my 5th gen to look like.. i had r6's before but in 18's on my 4th gen.. seeing ur car makes me wanna go buy some 19's too ahh i miss them.. watch out tho..t hey are a soft rim.. it will bend easily if u hit a pothole..

 

your car is beautiful, I love it. What is your fender height

 

Love it! Looks great!!

 

roughly 24", but since i'm rubbing, i had to raise it in a few spots, so i'm about 25" now.

 

Marco, the rides looking sick! Love the entire look your going after.

I'd get a cf hood next and maybe 2 tone leather. Other than that its perfect.

 

Your car looks great bro! It will look even better if you clean that smudge off of your camera lens before you take photos, j/k, nice car.
