hey

so here are my new rims... they're a bit like rowan's (eSEXSIX), but different...

they're 20x8.5" wrapped in nankangs 245/30/R20... i wasnt happy with these choice in tyres, but apparently they're the only 'legal' tyre (in terms of load rating) that we can put on our aurions...

i'm sure there are others, but they must cost a LOT more...

anyway... i wasnt too sure on the rims in the shop, but once they were put on the car, i was extremely happy with the outcome.. :)

enough talk, more pictures... :D

Rowan ain't joking. Fuming would be around the best word to describe many of the feelings running through my head. I really need a good comeback now.

Oh yeah, loving the 20's as well Ash. Just makes the 19's seem basic in comparison.

daym she is looking HOT! Just need to lower it now SecaBoy :D

Looks hot. I agree though it needs lowering to set off the wheels even more.

So you selling the stock rims or keeping?

Looks great Ash, suits the car really well.

Looks like you have a arched chrome lip that flushes to the edge of the tyre, like mine. Be carefull man when attacking driveways, too much angle will chew the lip.

They can scratch really easy if not careful. Same if you every get suspension or work done where they need to take you wheels off. I always tell them to not stack them or place them face down. With normal rims it doesnt really matter, but with these types of rims its soo easy to scratch them. And most coys wont even notice that the lip rolls to the edge.

Good choice dude, they make your beast look sweet.

Hey Dj wasn't i getting hammered for posting repeats other day?

What do you call this thead? after previous thread was posted 2 or 3 day ago with 20 inch rims?

http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/inde...showtopic=19703

Just hijack of prevoud thread.

Just seems double standards here? It been long 15 hour day for me and bit annoyed that other get raps for double threads and other get flamed for it.

Yeah sure Iam new comer to this forum but no exuse for some to get flamed and others to get away with it at the end of the day we all share the same interest here.

sorry I had to point - Iam not here to stir the pot just to share & gain knowleadge & interest of my toyota

It's not called double standards mate. There is a difference between asking repeat questions, and posting photos to show off your ride in a similar fashion to the 'Members Rides' section. This thread falls along the lines of the latter. It is a different type of thread. If I had a problem with this thread, I would need to have a problem with every other thread in the 'Members Rides' section.

i reckon the stock rims look better on it

I think the same actually. As the stock TRD ones really look good! But these are still nice.

My question is why couldn't he post it under the other 20 inch rim thread it would of still got looked at by all members thats what baffles me and the threads still in the top 5 post which people would of clicked on.

also if falls under members rides then why wasn't it posted in members rides?

I rather carry this on with pm's

Sorry Ash for that little bit of thread jacking that went on there. Look forward to seeing you at the meet. It is always so hard now standing by watching everyone progress further. I hate falling into the shadows. <Kicks self for not bidding on the TRD rims that sold for $800>

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....

Azza: grow up and stop being petty...

i started a new thread so i would hijack rowan's thread... that would just be rude to me... :lol:

yes, probably should have been in the "members rides" section... but to be honest, i dont check there for updates on other aurions, i check in this section...

the only two parts of this forum i look at is the aurion section and the upcoming cruises... so i just automatically posted in this section...

to all the guys that have posted real comments in this thread, thanks for your comments...

imo, yes, the stock trd rims suit the car well, but i actually quite like the look of these rims on the car... :)

i most likely wont be lowering my car, but i like how the car sits and i already scrape on some speed bumps when i have one other person in the car...

i will admit that the front of the car does sit a bit higher than what i'd like, but i'll deal with it... :)

bondie: tell me about it!!! i already have a really minor scrape on one of the lips from a parking lot and trying to negotiate a tight corner... :(

Posted (edited)

haha if anyone finds a forum that has no shiet fights i'm gunna join it!!! is it really that hard to get along?

tbh i dont look at any other sections of the forum other than the aurion coz we are so leet that we are above the rest of u (except the klugers and prados) nah dont really have the time to trawl.

hate the stock TRD rims, love the 20's... they would look so nice on a white presara that i know hey. how much?

i was upset that u were upset that u thought that u had the same rims as esexsix and u were not unique anymore... well im gonna copy you just to spite u.

only jokers!

I kinda wish the TRD rims were like the prototype they had before (shown below). Those would look okay in my opinion; and is that some minor dish on them as well? So now all this 20 inch fun, looks like I should join in with some nice deep dish. Hmmmm, the temptation. I think a set of AirRunner suspension would suit best.
