[juvenile]

I like it, ready for the track B)

are they 7" wide xpyyy ? and what offset?

Thanks

[xpyyy]

Hi, John!

Yeap, it's 7" wide (was looking for 8", but they got ET35 offset), ET43 offset.

Also for everyday cruising to work or smthing else, i've got the rims, don't know exact are they BBS or not, something like that:

in 17" 8" wide, ET38

And now search the used tire 225/45 17, hope this week-end will install them on a car.

With Yokohama i've got some problems - it's much wider, that they say. It's 225, but in fact it's about 237mm wide, even wider, than my friend's Hankook Ventus RS-2 235/40 18. So they scratching plastic in front of my car.

Here we go!

New rims for Street installed, it's 17" 8J ET38 Blest Mesh in Silver

Your auris looks good :)....Looks nice the new wheels with the lip.

[juvenile]

Once again looking great, but are they staggered fitment? the photo of the rims without tyres have two deeper lips and on the car they look the same size,are they different rims?

[xpyyy]

Photos without tires i've googled on Yahoo!auction just as a sample.

I don't know what 'staggered' means

Staggered is when you have two different sizes, wider on the rear than the front ones.. Thats what that photo looks like..

Nice one xpyyy :)

[xpyyy]

Nope, they all one size and offset, maybe it's because of rear -1 degree angle.. Or i'm noob at photos :D

Thank you, John. Your opinion is very important for me on this forum. I can assume that 17" is the FINEST size of wheels for Corolla (Auris) 07+.

No problem, i've said before i like 1 inch bigger than stock thats why i like 17"...gives it a racy look and not an oversized look..

What camera do you use? your pics are so clear. Keep up the good work :)

Cheers

Last pics i took at my portrait lens Canon 85 1.8 , camera is the Canon 400D or Canon Digital Rebel XTi/ Kiss X - same name. Sorry for dirty car, now it's much shiner and clay :)

Tomorrow I'll go for the first time on a big track (about 3 km ring near by Moscow) hope it'll get a good experience in car driving.

[Get Funke]

[xpyyy]

The car has been sold out :(

Now i've bought a little bit used (4130km) Renault Clio Sport 197 (2.0L 197hp, brembo 4 piston front 312 and 300 rear brakes with 'revo-knuckle' tech from RenaultSport, just the same as the last shootout with auris)

Suppose, it won't be interesting to write here about Renault, that's a little farewell, guys!

[flipsta24]

[J e r e M y]
