TRD Wide body kit

r.drifter · 09-22-2009, 01:36 AM

I have a TRD wide body kit about to install soon. But I'm not sure if I need wheel spacer for my rims? or anything else I have to look out before I put the kit on.

you should not NEED wheel spacers. but your wheels will be recessed in quite a bit. IMO wheel spacers would be a waste of a widebody kit. you should be getting WIDE wheels with lots of rubber to go with it.

what he said.
and if you put on that body kit (don't know why?, are cars look good without body kits) and keep the oem wheels or and wheel not over 8" wide... I will point, stare, laugh, and take pics of you and your funny looking mr2.

Either go all in, or don't go in at all.

If you put on the wide body kit, you should'nt need wheel spacers for it since you're gonna have to get custom wheels fitment. I'm running Blitz Technospeed staggered, 18x8.5 front 19x10 rear. I need to go wider wheels.

NICE WIDEBODY! ^^^^^^The whole point of a Widebody kit is to have wider tires. I have Volk/Ray's 17×8 front and 17×10 rear.
