And went a tad bit lower. Still no rubbing and I'm really satisfied with this height (for now) haha! Really feel like at this height I can drive her almost anywhere! #DerpyBoyz

No waaaay !

Never thought I'd see one of these out here! They're called "yaris" in france haha...

Looks really good man, surprisingly loving it.

Yes it's a Yaris in the US as well. I just put the JDM badges on there! Thank you though man I appreciate that a lot!

Pretty sure they're also called the Yaris in US too. It's only called the Vitz in Japan I believe, and in HK. Maybe AUS.

Little bit of an update, car has been running great and still getting me great gas mileage despite being on 16x9s haha. Also, my TRD exhaust came in and is installed! Sounds amazing and I love how much clearance I have under still.

Like the new wheels. How couldnt I, i run similar on some of my cars.

Try removing those mudflaps it will look so much cleaner in my opinion

Cheers keep it up

Thank you man! And I was actually thinking of removing the mud flaps so maybe I'll do that tomorrow and see how she looks.

Haven't updated this in a while, but I've basically just been busy with school and work, and dialing in the fitment. I finally received my -3 realcamber shims in the mail, which is way better and safer than the washers I have been using, plus the best part is they're custom made to almost 0 out toe! Which is great! (I **** you Toyota for this rear torsion beam by the way) because since I started commuting to school I burned through my rear tires so fast. Once I get some new rear tires I'll take her to get aligned, and hopefully I'll be happy with the results. The -3 realcamber shims push the rear wheels a bit more obviously, then combined with my 10mm hubcentric spacers, makes the rear look pretty good

More pictures with the homies recently acquired EG8 while he works on his GSR 4 door.





Still scraping pretty tough, probably gona add a tad bit more camber in the front. I love how she sits though!

[TerenceJCruz]

Thats sick! Did you step up in spring rate because of scraping? Were they any better as far as ride quality over the oem megan racing ones? I'm thinking of getting custom swift springs.

Right on man, thanks!! And yes I did bro, upgraded to 10k front and 8k rear Swift springs. Waaay better than the Megans.
