  • Static JZX90 - Looking for Advice, Set Up Change

    Hey guys,

    Been lurking this site for a while and was hoping I could get some advice from you dudes on my previous and future setup.

    Basically, I have a 1993 Toyota Chaser that I bought nice, shiney, AME Ax's for and slapped them on. Saw pictures from friends (see below) and honestly, I'm not happy with how the car was sitting. I have since sold the wheels and I'm wanting to change it up and find something that fits better(?).

    I can only judge the rear as one of my front coils was seized at the time and I couldn't lower the car in the front.

    f: 18x9 +15
    r: 18x10 +0

    Keep in mind, I hadn't pulled the fenders and still had room to go lower. I don't like how the rears look like there is nothing in the middle of the car and they just seem to be sticking out there. My thoughts were that I have the room for two more inches in the wells and running a 18x12 +25 would give me the same poke but fill the back end more.

    I'd like your guys (and girls) opinions on the past and future setup.

    You need a smaller tire, a lot of fender work and camber and you should be good. That fit is doable but I agree, it looks bad now. Wider would help some but it mainly needs to be a lot lower

        Agreed, those wheels look far too big for that car.

            Do the 18x12s, go lower, add camber and an aggressive drift aero (bn sports etc.)


            With stock body, I'd say step down to 17s so you can get much lower.

              This exactly. Lower. Camber.
              You were blessed with having an awesome car, do it right!

                Thanks for the advice. Sorry axelillo, rims are already good and gone. I also forgot to mention the side skirts I have were not on the car at the time of the pictures. The lip on there, along with the sides and rears make the car look pretty stock body so that is probably the way I'll be keeping it.

                17s in a 12 e.t 25 are practically impossible to find but my search begins! More low, more stretch, and more camber are all on the list too.

                  good advice pretty much covered....maybe a little less rear poke but wheels and camber should solve that

                      As I've previously stated, the AXs are gonzo. I guess the next topic could be full face wheel suggestions?

                      Edit: Locksmice Dukes are top of the list right now.
