New Wheels Installed/ Exterior Finished

[Yaris WRC]

Link to a page with some more pics of my new exhaust

some sneaky pics of new 3" exhaust for when turbo finally goes on.

wheels might not be to every ones liking but i wanted them to sit nicely in the arches so had to get a set of split rims made up.

Loving the deep dish stylee mate but I'm with Dave, not too keen on the alloys I'm afraid!

What he said

[Yaris WRC]

yeah i know it wont be to every ones taste, it might even only appeal to a minority, sometimes i need to compromise on a bit of all out looks for a bit of form and purpose

[chris202]

mate if they had been all silver aye , but the gold looks a bit naff :( sorry .....

[raywong]

prefer the old set of rims that u got.. but i like the exhaust tho.. did u manage to sell the old set of rims by the way?

Not a fan of the gold on these alloy imo as dont look such a high quality finish as your last set! Also im not sure blue and gold goes well together Glad you like them though! Personally not a huge fan of exterior but the engine on this car will make it a beast :D

[Yaris SR Kid]

Exhaust is going to sound immense!!

Love the side skirts! what are they?

[Yaris WRC]

skirts are ibher design i think. not too sure.

yeah i know wat u mean about the gold finish looking naff, i might get them done in a different finish and maybe change the wheel nuts to a black set.

old rims are in the for sale section btw.

cheers for feedback

[jaxx]

prefered the old ones :)

i like that fat rear wheels look, but they just dont cut it im afraid, very naff design :(

Love the side skirts! what are they?

They are K18/19 kit skirts and can be picked up for around £140 :)

Something different mate, see too many cars on here looking very similar (and i don't mean all of them being Yari!) im liking it!

[calgon]

i like the outer part of the rim, (im gessing its a 3piece rim) dont like the centres gold rims only look good on scoobys.

[ricomr2]

Coming from a mainly Dub background I have to say they look superb!

Very Euro looking and the offset of the rears is perfect.

If you like them, thats all that matters but I can definetly see where your coming from, good job! B)

[mcsky]

very nice indeed, i think that if ppl saw it in the flesh their views would change, what i have found when i mod my car, i went for a totally unique sense of styling and did it how i liked, a lot of ppl always see pics and go errr dont like this and dont like that, but once they see the car in the flesh, everything goes together and they love it.

its always good to be different matey, stand out from the crowd, liking it

[Al J]

Wouldn't be my choice but they look fine except those blue nuts. Just doesn't work with the gold. Black or chrome would look much better imo.

[Yaris WRC]

yeah ricomr2 i got my inspiration from the euro dubs.

and like mcsky said, things can look better in the flesh than in the pics.

Think I like the old wheels better espeically since they were so light!

What sizes did you go for, did you manage to get 8" rears? I think if you were going to go for the split rim look, Japanese wheels are the only way to go. I don't think UK manufactured wheels can get anywhere near them in terms of quality.

yeah they were light, but these are not much heavier , but they are also wider.

both are 7.5 inches wide. the rears have such a big lip because they need no bread caliper clearance.

the fronts need a sizeable 'step out' to get past the break calipers and reduces the amount of lip i could have.

the wheels are still lighter than say a set of OZ chronos. which is what i used to have before the bronze AME wheels.

i got 7.5 inch wheels so i could run a slightly wider and taller tyre on the front to try and help traction and handling.
