 [font="Impact"][/font]  Hi everyone iv'e been a member for a while but i didnt want to post until i had a relevent topic! I recently decided to buy tires for my 94 celica gt coupe but came across some pretty much brand new Scion FRS wheels with new tires for 495.00 shipped so i fig why not. When i began to put them on i quickly realized that the front wheel rubbed my caliper bracket. Easy fix guys 5 mm spacer should do the trick and get you rollin any questions message me.

Any idea on the weight of those wheels? It'd be too much to ask you to pull the tires off, but if you could weigh the combined wheel and tire, and identify the tire brand/model/size, I'm sure I could find the tire's weight listed somewhere.
I'm hoping it's not too bad, considering the focus on weight reduction the rest of the car received. Can't imagine Toyoda would accept Toyota dropping wheels as heavy as those of the Scion tC (22 lbs) onto the GT86. |

yeah I was just thinking it was too much to the sound of the 2000s tuner crowd and I swear Ive seen chinese replicas that are about 80-90% similar and that was around 2009, that car could pull off pretty much any kind of wheel and...meh

The TC/celica centerbore is about 2mm smaller. -------------------- |
