18" wheels with ww front lip

[crystalalien87]

ok like the title says if you have any pics could you please post them up. im debating if i would would rather have 17 or 18 inch rims while rocking a ww front lip, molly rep sides and ww rear lip. i feel like 18 might be to big for such a low profile look. and dropped would help:gap:

Get 17's. I had 18's before and never again going back to them.

18s on a Celica = hot wheels car.

17s will suffice just fine.

I felt it was a good balance, 18's with the ww lip and a tein s-tech drop.

Whats wrong with 18's? :sadpace:

there's nothing wrong with 18's.

ot the OP, your lip combo will be okay with 17's. i have 18's on my car and i like it. if i ever find the right 17's maybe ill change.

it depends on your drop your looking to do, 18's look Awesome on a celi, since i had them as well. 17's look great as well. But if you do a Subtle drop such as Tein, TRD, or anything lower than 2 inches and below id rock 18's, but if you go lower than that like coilovers id go 17 mainly cause of rub issues.

Dont listen to Costco, cause thats prob where he bought his celica. In the Matchbox section with 17's on it cause the Hot Wheels version was to spendy.

[crystalalien87]

Im going for a flush look. so i plan on getting coilovers. my problem is deciding between the two
1. going with 17 will help with no rubbing issues but will need a more extreme drop in order to close the wheel to fender gap.

2. Going with 18 will give me rubbing issues but i wont be kissing the asphalt every time i hit a bump.
here are the rims on soo_fuego car. i wanting a similar setup but i want a little more poke. he is running 18

Both will rub just as much as the other...

While your ouit there getting some 17s get some TRD side skirts as well cause yours dont flow with your lip.


Then sell me your Carcept sides!!!!!!!!

[TRlPPlN]

[Soo__Fuego]

OP as far as i know it will also depend on the tires you are planning to buy. There 17inch rims that looks like 18 and there are 18s that looks like 17s. Rubbing depends on offset and width, so many factors to consider. :)

Raul i want Trippin's side too :gap:

Too bad hes acting tight with them.:thumbdown :laugh:
