has anyone here mini tubbed a ke55?

 

legally in nsw you can tub to the chassis rail,and i reckon i might be able to squeeze a 275/50/15 in there.

 

mainly after some advice from people who have done it and what there results were.

 

some pics would be nice too :cool:

Search for 1JZKE55.

thanks,but thats not exactly mini tubbed :lolcry:

Yeah...my bad.

Don'treally need to mini tub for that sort of tyre size. Considering i can get +42 wheels with 205's on the rear of mine I'm sure you could push the other 70mm out with the right offset and a good lip or roll.

yeh it has been done, as you can see there is about 1-2 inches to be had before the rail.

 

Leaf springs also need to be moved.

 

Would fit a 10 inch rim under quite well i would think, as 8S fit under pretty well untubbed.

i've had 245's on 9" simmons under a standard rear end. but i think if i move the springs in and go to the rail i should be able to do it.i just havent seen it done in a corolla.(n ot saying it hasnt been done)

are you dragging the car or doing it for looks?

 

moving the leaf springs inboard is quite likely to have a rather negative effect on handling

i will be racing it at the drags. :yes:

excellent. start a members rides thread perhaps :y:
