Totally on topic. That what they remind me off. Back dimples, side boob cleavage, and inner thigh divot... Very sexy. Aesthetic yet functional. Functional aesthetics. Me diggs really much.

These look sick.

Curious about BBK clearance? The Essex AP Sprint (hardest BBK to fit in wheels) and Endurance kits (most representative of most BBKs due to how far the caliper sticks out) were used to check for clearance.

17x8 +35 on an Altezza. Not a 5x100 setup, but close enough. It actually looks pretty good.

The T66-F makes some very brief appearances in this video. 9 views in 1 week... TWS needs to step their marketing game up!

That tws ex spur

Shout outs to gratuitous shots of gogo dancers booties and other body parts. I think I got a better look at the stripper poles than the wheels.

How come the front badge is Scion but the rear badge is Toyota?

In Japan they like to rebadge Toyotas to Scion because it's cool USDM yo. In the US people hate the Scion brand because they are insecure, superficial and too cheap to buy and maintain a BMW or MB for a badge they think means something to other insecure and superficial people.

I think a modern updated version of this would be awesome. Would match the hundreds of T's we already have on the 86.

Thanks. I figured that car was in Japan but it seemed a little strange to see a Scion badge up front and a Toyota badge out back. I agree with you on the old badge, would be sweet to see a modern version of it on our cars.

This thread is so cool

So I guess no body ever pull the trigger for that 16x7 :p

Still love these wheels to death. Nothing fresher looking or more functional out there IMO.

Just can't justify the cost yet. *Le sigh*.

churchx · 09-27-2015, 10:47 AM

All top vendor forged wheels cost a lot. One can get costs down only by getting used. As for looks .. i don't like this design, but their lightweightness and actual availability that are selling point of these, not looks, so i might be willing to ignore looks part. There were other very light wheels that looked better, but most of them are discontinued/very hard to find.
