They can't even properly center the Toyota emblem on the cap, WTF?

russv · 06-27-2012, 07:06 PM

I saw those "canards" in another photo. Are they exclusive to the middle eastern market? Do they serve a purpose? Those wheels look awesome with the white paint.

No idea where the 'canards. Come from. Seen versions of this kit (mishmash of the TRD and Modellista rear diffuser/exhaust +wing in some cases) on press cars in the Middle East and South Africa with those stripes.

I think it's more of a tactic to grab the attention of the wider 'bling loving' market out there although the dealer says that they will be selling TRD parts at some point.

Al futtaim on the Sheikh Zayed road said to me august some time for the TRD stuff. Which falls in line with delivery timelines of cars ordered around now-ish :-) i've not seen the white one that up by festival city ultra?

Though not as "stancey" as some will like, i do like the use of 225 section width over, say, a 245. You get a bit more grip while still maintaining the tossability of the narrower tire. Problem with the big meats is they generate too much grip! For an autocross or track, that's probably a good thing for ultimate track times. But for this car's HP and torque levels, the lower grip provides a delicate balance and throttle adjustability that you will lose when upping your traction levels.

So nice! even the trd kit painted

dabocx · 07-03-2012, 09:59 PM

Wish these came in a slightly wider setup. 17X8.5 or 17X9.0 would be perfect.

Circuit Motorsports · 07-04-2012, 12:44 PM

Looks good! I always wish they would have made a wider 5X100 Ultra or SuperLeggra. somewhere around 17X9

JDMSushi · 07-05-2012, 08:28 AM

Ommm nom nom nom nom

Thanks to the guys @ Nitron Racing Systems

MarkMash · 07-05-2012, 10:20 AM

#87 · 07-05-2012, 11:28 AM

That pic just sold me 100% getting these wheels for next summer

Is that the silver or graphite color?

JDMSushi · 07-05-2012, 11:42 AM

Believe they are the HLT's in 18x8 +35 but I could be off.

ImAwesome · 07-05-2012, 01:11 PM

I want that rear on the black car!!!!

looks like a F430

ultra · 07-05-2012, 03:11 PM

I like how the spec on the black car looks - the one I posted was way tucked by comparison.
