New wheels on the XRS...

New wheels on the XRS...

Finally got my wheels/tires today.

17x8 Drag DR31 +35 with Yokohama S-Drive tires.

Im first to say they look good. Pictures seem to need more light.

OMG. It matches the car perfectly. Nothing sexier than bronze wheels on a black car.

thanks, and yeh... a couple shots were lacking proper lighting. but i didnt have my tripod with me.

i agree with you whole heartedly... thank you lol

They look real good on ur ride man

breathtaking

thank you, sir.

haha wow... i havent heard that one yet. thank you though!

Holy sh!t Nate. That looks awesome. That's a hell of a finish you got on there too man, what do you use for a wax?

haha thanks man, i use mothers "deep crystal" carnuba wax.

nice CR Kais!

now you need to take a picture of your car while its being driven..

haha jerk

i think im going to work on that tomorrow.

LOL

seriously, car looks good!

thank you, and thank you!

Xrs Ftw

Very nice!

What do the new XRSs run in the 1/4mi?

Looks good men! I like it!

definately!

low 15s

haha thanks

did you take your car to the speedway yet?

not yet, why?

I really like the way the car looks right now. are you going to do anything more to the car?

i actually debadged it and smoked the tail lights tonight...




ill get some more pics asap!

nice.. I was going to suggest you smoke your tails to match the 86 but I see you are one step ahead of me.:thumb:

Wow. You made it even sexier. btw, what did you use to get a light smoke tint? Vinyl or spray? I've been looking for a light smoke vinyl, but I don't know how it compares to full dark tint.

debadged ftmfw. "maing, it's just an S maing, lol"

BTW, do you still have the black corrugated plastic thing in the trunk? If so, is yours in front of or behind the brace?

Looks sharp man - the wheels, smoked tails, overall look of the car just clean and subdued - Nice! Incredible finish as well, the last couple of pics with the reflection from the rear sail area and from the doors, might just be the angle and the wax, but it looks like you polished the hell out of the car .

great minds think alike!

i went to a hobby store and picked up "tamiya" brand "SMOKE" spray paint. i just did a medium coat and then wet sanded, then another medium coat, and then i polished them. the cans are small though and you only get 1 decent coat for the whole set of tails out of 1 can... $5.50 a can.

yeah, its in front of the bar hiding it. but ive meaning to put it behind the bar for awhile now... thanks for reminding me lol

just a normal wash and wax! thanks for the compliments!

just wondering,its nice to see corolla going to the track instead of honda.

i might take it to midnight mayhem this friday... you gonna be out there?

im only expecting a mid to high 15 though, the wheels feel heavier than stock.
