wow nice wheels. Doesnt the staggered setup affect the awd system?

 

Nope...got 2WD.

 

thats a pretty agressive rear, how far are you from the rear strut from tire? you need a lower drop though. the wheels look sick compared to many other peoples' on here. ill give props when due.. for those authentic wheels!

 

nice choice in color combo with the silver and black. did you ever get a weight on those rims/rubber combo compared to your stock setup?

 

The wheels looks good and aggressive but sorry, I don't feel it on the RX. I haven't seen one single set of wheels that makes the RX looks hot, it's either way too much wheel gap
or RX isn't meant for big wheels with skinny tires.

 

I had eibachs installed but looks like I will go the route of air suspension. The springs haven't settled yet ...but there will still be a gap. I wanted to go 245/45 but Toyo T1R's don't come in that size so I went with 245/40.

 

there's still about 1.5"...8.5 wide wheel and 40 series tires gave it some room. I will probably try to fit 245/45 or 255/45 for my next set of tires. I thought the eibachs would lower it more but I will wait to see how it looks when they settle. But Air Runner might be the answer. I actually ended up going with a setup pretty close to what you suggested...just a few millimeters less agressive in the rear but stuck with your recommendation in the front. THX!!!

 

Very nice wheels!

 

I notice you are using sport compact high performance tires. I am rolling on 40series as well on 20s but on performance truck/suv tires. Mine do look a tad bit thicker though being the same size.

 

I asked for SUV tires but the guys at Toyo recommended T1R's...I do want my next set of tires to have a little more meat on them but I am very happy with the T1R's. I told them i wanted a tire with a round profile...there are alot of SUV tires out there that look very flat and boxy and I didn't wnat that look.

 

Nice, real nice set!

 

I will try to get some daytime pics this weekend...if weather permits

 

Wow. Nice wheelzz. Thanks for the 411.

 

no problem...I will have daytime pics this weekend from the DPE Europrojektz Charity Meet/Fundraiser @ Supreme Power Parts in Placentia.
