This may sound absolutely crazy. And i understand if it does sound crazy, so don't go skitz. I have a KE26, it's blue, lowered a bit in the front and 2.5inch in he rear.

 

I have RA40 celica rims (14"), had a sudden ridiculous thought to put some flappers on.

 

Thoughts, anyone?

 

PS. I know i'll need a sun visor, but i don't like the mesh ones.

do it

Yes do it. Flappers are awesome

You are right, it is ridiculous. Just get real whitewalls....

how can you lower only a bit in the front and 2.5 inchs in the rear? reverse rake?

Bitta lean you know. Yeah i've seen that KE26 before. That's what tempted me ages ago.

 

Or i go jap spec Mark3's or 2's. Or starsharks. But they are freakin' expensive.

Go for it man. A guy I know had flappers on his orange ke25 and it looked awesome.

Yeah think i may aswell give it a shot haha. As it's alot cheaper than getting any sweet rims.

 

I'll keep yas updated. As i think i know where to get some.

Anyone know where i can get 14 inch flappers. Johns Rod and Customs don't get them for a month.

Want them.

excuse my ignorance, what are "flappers"?

I was guessing them things on the windscreen wipers?

jordy - http://www.antiquetyres.com.au/contact-us this place stock flappers. pretty good priced aswell

 

ke70dave - flappers/portawalls/whitewall inserts

 

what does the antique tyres dude charge for flappers?

 

he was charging way over the odds for narrow vw tyres... i found the same thing for far less at my local total tyres, and got them in a day instead of the weeke he quoted. so that did it for me as far as getting my business

 

i have bought atlas flappers from a dude in cyprus on ebay. best prices i have found any where.

i think he said $120 or 160? not sure

I got my flappers off ebay from this guy for $40 delivered. Atlas brand, haven't fitted them yet but they look great.
