UPDATE 06/08/2012: Ah crap, the windshield must be replace their is a defect in it, it appear to be dirty between the layer. Next week it will be replaced. Other news, for assurance got no choise to Sheerlock it... Better news, my Cusco strut bar is arrived, I'll post pictures of it installed! Most importantly, I've found crazy wheels for a crazy price... Black Racing N1 Bronze 5X100 17X8 +38 brand new for... 624$ SHIPPED. What a deal. Thanks 1010tires! Will look crazy with those!

They look lighter than that. Hard to beat the Enkei RPF1's on weight and cost. I have had two rounds of RPF1 on earlier cars and am after a something different, but I would like to stay below 16 lbs.

Well, not THAT bad. They were darm cheap and these are high quality wheels from Japan. Plus the offset will fit great. I've pay them the price of a used set for a brand new one.

They will be my street wheels and I'll put the OEM Michelin on it.

Flat bronze + Whiteout =

The C-One will be on for track days !

Ah and a little update: my Cusco strut bar is installed

The wheels do look good, but they are heavy.

20 pounds is going to hurt quite a bit on a low torque car like this...it will in essence negate any gains you would get from an intake/exhaust, if not more...

Man, I wish C-one didnt go bankrupt. This would have been real good for them. I had the full C-one kit for my celica gts. Extremely rare here in the states and the parts were so just as good as oem parts in quality. Nice car btw.

Well... I don't think they are heavier than stock. We'll see when I mount them.

Ah finally got my BC coilovers. With the wheels and the drop, it really look like I always wanted. Theirs a little bit of rear camber in the rear, maybe I'll raise it a little bit or i'll buy ajustable lower arm I'll see.

Not going to lie that looks sweet. Have you noticed the handling being worse since the drop? I have heard rumors.

Seriously, not really. For sure the car feel differant for now, the alignement is all fucked up! When everything will be put in the stock spec, I'm sure it will be really similar to OEM expect that is a little bit more stiff.
