the wheels on the Yaris now are 15x7 +35mm.

we're probably going to run a narrower tire (195) and add a 10mm hub spacer in the rear.

we will hopefully get to autox the yaris here in the future.

Abby is looking into some 16x7s for the street then we'll slap on some 195/55/15 R888s on the RE30s.

New article about one of IWSTI's own.

Uncompromised: Daily Driver, Weekend Warrior » t3h_Clap’s Wheel33tist Blog

I'm working on the Yaris article as well, we just need to find some locations to take the photos.

also playing around with the idea of some rear over fenders for the STi. Still not sure though as I think i'd rather stay "stock" body.

I wasnt gonna say anything ...

And well, it kinda turned into a fiasco, i went to get the deposit back from discount and i think they ended up charging another $170.00 to my card

So i need to look further into that, and i left a message on Luke's voicemail again today so hopefully he'll get back to me tomorrow...

Soon though, very soon i hope

could always just order the wheels through discount and get the tires through tire rack.

although then it's up to discount to mount them.

They gotta order wheels and tires from TR anyway, so either way TR is getting business.... and i know discount will be cheaper, but only by a little bit.... TR wont scratch a wheel, and if they do they can change em out real quick, if discount scratches one, then they gotta ship it back and its more waiting time for me....

Yeah i told you i got a good deal from discount... then they couldnt find the tires anywhere (already knew the wheels were comin from TR) and so i told em to call TR, and when they got the price from them, my price went up, and it would only be saving me like $40 bucks....
I'd have to do the install, but that isnt a big deal
