May 29, 201313 yr Author comment_657309 I have been getting some work done. All 4 wheels are painted and cleared. I ended up putting a clear on them. it added a glossy appearance, but I'm ok with it. Here they are complete: I am able to get the car in the garage to work on it now, so thats a plus. I mocked up the rims on the car. Rear will fit PERFECT. I am going for a filled out wheel well and the rear can't get any better than this: The front are close. They stick out less than an inch out of the front gaurd. These are 7.5" wide wheels, and I will run a 185-60-r14 Falken Ziex ZE-512. I should have a little stretch going on so they might tuck in nicely. There she sits until i beat the dreaded California SMOG! Report
May 29, 201313 yr Author comment_657312 MA61 wheels are 7", +8 offset FYI. I got 7.5" from inside of either lip. Ill check again when i get home. Edited May 29, 201313 yr by Skellington Report
May 30, 201313 yr Author comment_657428 Here is what I got on the MA61's: Dude nice... How do you plan on lowering it? I will make front coilovers. I will probably use https://technotoytuning.com/toyota/te37 or something like it. I am a DIY guy, So I may just gather parts and do it myself. I am undecided on the rear. I am thinking of using the leaf springs with blocks. Adding a panhard rod and 2 lower links to help locate axle, but if I go that far, I might as well just 4 link it. Who knows. Report

I want to get those same front coils for my te31 and use blocks in the rear... I hear the ride quality is shitty but I'm not sure... Report

June 28, 201313 yr Author comment_660203 Here is how it did at the smog shop. The guy first told me it would probably fail. his manager came over and made him re test it when he saw the CO%. He then laughed and told me it smogged bet Report
