i love those scion rims! i was going to try and talk a co-worker into swapping me, but then realized her tires were worn out much more than mine. oh well. lol.

custom rims normally don't do much for me (i really dig my stock 17's), but those are really nice.

AKLGT · Post by **AKLGT** » Wed Aug 24, 2005 7:02 am

really? you like the stock 17's? i hated mine! i thought they were big, heavy and ugly! lol. oh well, not my car anymore so i don't care.

AKLGT · Post by **AKLGT** » Wed Aug 24, 2005 7:07 am

those rims were stock... just on a different car! lol

My neighbor bought a TC and let me have these for $150 w/o tires! They bolt right up using the OE lugnuts. I had to modify the center caps a bit to get the to fit.

wow! nice buy for $150!!!!

redlava · Post by **redlava** » Wed Aug 24, 2005 10:19 am

No Kidding!!!Those look pretty sweet. Did I read somewhere that the TC has optional 18's or ws that just my imagination. Cause I thought I saw them someplace and they look really good as well.

AKLGT · Post by **AKLGT** » Wed Aug 24, 2005 10:26 am

well i know TRD makes an 18" wheel/tire combo that will fit the celica's, matrix, corolla, and TC.

Went to the Scion website and you can. They are called the EMX super 7.

(removed). well, it's your car and as long as you like it, that's really all that matters.

those look pretty cool and you can't beat the price thats for sure.

JustinVGT · Post by **JustinVGT** » Wed Aug 24, 2005 11:04 am

Yeah, those look great. Back when I was shopping for some wheels, Tirerack's in house brand has a model very similar to those that I thought about getting.

Very nice I like the center caps too!

tnpartsguy · Post by **tnpartsguy** » Wed Aug 24, 2005 11:26 am

I likeee!!I Often Thought Celica GTS wheels (the 5 Spoke/16's) would look good on the Vibe.

Those look really good!

bud_one · Post by **bud_one** » Wed Aug 24, 2005 1:36 pm

northvibe · Post by **northvibe** » Wed Aug 24, 2005 3:10 pm

Those rims are sweet. I think it would look even better dropped.

I have a 2009 1.8 base with 16" rubber. Do you know if the speedometer was affected when you stepped up to the 17" Scion wheels? I have found a few sets of new 17" Scion take offs and might do it.

I have found a few sets of new 17" Scion take offs and might do it. I put the Scion tC rims on my car. As long as the outside diameter is the same there shouldn't be a difference. http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=1066 Check out this thread and you can compare your current tire size to what you want to do.

vibolista · Post by **vibolista** » Wed Nov 11, 2009 12:34 am

Your sig pic should have those tC rims on the car. They look !!! Especially with those nice wide tires. So go dust off the camera lens and get out there and take that picture before ski season sets in and you have to put the steelies back on. I know you can do it! You guys skiing/shredding out there yet?

lovemyraffe · Post by **lovemyraffe** » Wed Nov 11, 2009 12:41 am

I don't have steelies at all anymore. I have some good pics of my car with the wheels on, just need to find time to go get some pics.We got pounded with snow a few weeks ago, but then it warmed up to almost 80 for a couple weeks. We are supposed to get snow this weekend.

vibolista · Post by **vibolista** » Tue Nov 17, 2009 5:33 am

You guys are always skiing/shredding before we get to. I lived in NW Montana from mid 80s to mid 90s. Sweet ski season... but not the snow quality you enjoy. Love Alta.

The snow in Utah is great. Not many options where I live now.
