I am not a *****. I was merely asking when did GHETTO become a style?

I am a firm believer in building a car from your personality.

I was more referring to The Chosen One, mattphi, et al.

I could have probably made a better choice in the photos i used... I will put some nicer ones up later.

I think that's a car with almost no potential, honestly

RE: the ghetto look;

people can **** on it all they want... and no, its not like that because I cant afford to paint it in a nice shiny color, I actually *want* it flat black...

You don't really see any celica's (well not 5th gen ones) with good stance, so I wanted to be different and give mine that look.

but hey, ****** are always gonna ****...

Is that a real All-Trac or do you just have the hood?

ST185 All-Tracs are amazing cars, IMO. If it's an All-Trac you should definitely flare that bitch out.


At any rate, you can make just about anything look good stanced, including this thing. If you're 4x114.3 there are going to be tons of wheel choices. 4x100 is tougher to find in lower offsets.

I'm sure you can find coils for it, it's a very common car. Just check eBay. I swear KSport makes coils for John Deere lawn tractors now, they have like a million applications.

I'ts not a real alltrac unfortunately, but it does have a 5S with a turbo (plus a whole bunch of other goodies) on it under the hood... and before people go and say "why didn't you just put a 3S-GTE in it" once again, to be different... I actually have a 3S-GTE sitting under my house I could throw in if i liked.

It is actually 5x100 PCD, but I am seriously considering doing a hub swap to make it 5x114.3 which seems a lot more common.

It currently has ground control coil-overs on it (which have not been lowered or set up yet)

Thanks JawDropper and Grey for your helpful input.

i have a buddy with the same issue. says he is going for the "ratty" look. translated that means he simply cant afford to make it not look like shit, so he claims it looks like that on purpose. i guess it makes them feel better when talking about their pieces of junk.

[JawDropper]

since when did "ghetto" become a look? All sarcasm put aside.

lol....yeah still tryin to figure out that one. I just wasnt gonna say nothin and leave that one alone.

Everything has potential. Just depends on how far the owner is willing to go.

Well then your options are endless then. If I had to take a guess(seeing as how i have never worked on a celica to make it flush) going by other cars with the 40+ offset stock. I would say something like a 17x8.5 in a +25-30 offset would look rather sick. What coilovers are you running now?

[mick.wheelz]

doesn't phase me, the car is my weekend/piece of shit car, I don't really care what I have to do to make it have the hellaflush look...

[JawDropper]

ok. second question. How much work are you willing to put into making some rims fit? (i.e rolling the fenders, pulling the fenders, cutting sh*t up)

[mick.wheelz]

ok well whats your stock size rims/offset?

wheels on it now are 17x7 and +40 something offset.

stockers are 14x6 +45

thanks
