Gen 1 RT/10 Wheel options

[fed007]

Hi All,

So I need to get some rims... I love the stockers but I think I can sharpen up the look of my 95 with a slightly larger rim to fill the gap in the wheel wells a bit.

1) I know a toyo guy so probably going to put toyos on, which I understand are lower profiles...
2) What are my rim size limitations? can I go bigger without issues?

If you have pics of your gen 1 roadster, with non stock rims please post or reference. I have seen a lot of ppl mounting other gen rims which look pretty good.

thx

Many options to choose from. You can stay with some 17", 5 spoke 96-98 wheels or go up to 19/20" wheels. Just depends on what you're looking for. Here is a set of SSRs in the classifieds cheap:

A little off-topic: Baz, those wheels look fan-effing-tastic on that car!

looks good thanks for the post. Personally I think something shiny suits the older RTs. Black screams track/performance, I want a bit more bling on the wheel side.

99 do you have pics with your SSRs on?

I might be in love with these rims, I wonder what they look like on a red RT - note the sweet deep polish... awesome!

Love the GEN III 5 spoke, they were not around when I went looking. Although I will say one thing about the GEN III 5 spoke, they will "urge" you to buy some nicer rotors.

How about some semi-shiny Forgeline's, 18", 11" in front, 13" in rear...

These are my favorites

I was looking for that damn thread and couldn't find it. I found another thread that said "where did it go?" but never found this one. Dave wins.

I win? Send me my prize!






BTW, typing "ultimate wheel thread" in the search field followed by <enter> is my secret...

Actually, I was looking for another thread. The one you had was only 3 pages long, but the previous one was significantly longer. I remember seeing it when I first joined the board.

Jason, I think the information at the top right of that page shows 1-2-3-last>>
When I click it has 8 total pages.

So since I got you to see more pages (4-5-6-7-8) than Dave, do I win?

I only searched for "wheel" in the title, but with an option of at least 150 replies. Therefore I was more efficient, also.

Thanks, that's my old car. I wish that I had those on my blue/white '97 GTS right now...

These are my favorites

Tom... You make it sound like this is a Prius forum. Efficiency does not matter. Being first does.

If nothing else just go with the 99-02 Polished wheels, like 94RT10Ohio. I plan on buying me a black GEN 1 one day, just to put my stockies off my 01 GTS on it.

 

[jasontiff]

Damn...there is no excuse for my being so off today. I'm done. If you'll excuse me I need some rope and a Bankok hotel room closet to end it all...

Suggestion:

I have since painted the rear calipers to match the fronts, in other words black

Tom... Do you realize that every time you post your business ad gets repeated?

Nifty. Just thought I'd mention that.
