Finally got the wheels, tires and brakes on.

The Wheels are Kyowa Evolve 628's, 17 X 7, with custom orange stripes.
The tires are Goodyear Eagle GT's, 215/45/17.
The brakes are EBC slotted and dimpled rotors, with EBC Green Stuff pads.

Was able to get the stripes applied by a local painter specializing in pinstripes for $20 per wheel.

More grip, better braking, way better look.

TRD rear sway bar and Tien S Techs next..

TexXBox 08-10-2011 10:10 PM

Lookin' good. I'm a big fan of wheel pinstripes. Really sets them off.

YELOSUB 08-11-2011 10:14 PM

Hey Mike looks good...Nice touch with the pinstriping...

robbiej 08-12-2011 06:45 PM

Nice, love the rims.

That sucks...

simmons0613 08-13-2011 09:24 AM

Holy F@*$! What happened?

jester4666 08-13-2011 10:15 AM

guy in a truck didn't get stopped in time. i was at a dead stop when he hit.

simmons0613 08-13-2011 11:00 AM

ouch, how fast what he going? Besides you getting a new hatch and bumper is everything else ok?

jester4666 08-13-2011 11:59 AM

the speed limit on the road is 45, but no one does that. i would probably say around 30 or so, he locked up his brakes. lucky me, my brakes held when he hit so i didn't hit the car in front of me.

the tail lights are messed up too. the damd kit has some gouges in the rear lip, so i'm not sure where that's gonna go.

robbiej 08-13-2011 02:17 PM

That really sucks....

simmons0613 08-13-2011 08:20 PM

haha, well i guess its to the dealership for a new damd kit lol

SciFion 08-13-2011 10:54 PM

Sorry bro. :boxed: That bites bigtime. It's all fixable, but that doesn't help your spirits now. Good luck with the repairs.

TexXBox 08-13-2011 11:31 PM

I hate it when people drive by the braille method. Hope everything works out OK for you and your ride.

jester4666 08-14-2011 08:51 AM

thanks folks. i'm supposed to hear from the adjuster on monday, then it's off to get estimates.

Resolve 08-15-2011 09:03 AM

That sucks. I know from dealership a new rear bumper unpainted in mid $200s and rear door is like mid $300.

1sweetxd 08-15-2011 04:38 PM

hey Jester....look on the bright side. if you got a buddy down at the body shop, then you got a chance to get some new mods done and let insurance foot the bill. haha.

maybe a new paint job? im hoping someone keys my car so i can get the two-tone paint i want done. haha.

anyways, good luck on the repairs. I CANT wait for my S-Tech's to get here. im hoping they get delivered and i can have them installed in the next week or two.

Here's my RS 3.0 just about a month of ownership; the rims from my previous car happen to fit the xD! (SSR 17x7.5+35, BFG 235/45).

It will go back to steelies for the daily commute.

TexXBox 08-15-2011 09:14 PM

Nice. I love it when previous stuff carries over. Saves some coin. :)

What kind of front grill is that?-looks neat.

xd_kidd 08-22-2011 09:01 PM

i always liked that green when it first came out on the camry. looks good

simmons0613 08-22-2011 09:09 PM

Have had my xD for a while but just recently started to "mod" it. In the last two months shes gotten TRD springs/shocks, TRD rear swaybar, TRD SSK, NST SSK, NST pulley, Spectra intake, tint, rear wing and sharkfin antenna. Just ordered TRD sport exhaust and planning on getting the Weapon R header as well....xD FTW.

^^Yea, what he said. they are the billet inserts

simmons0613 08-23-2011 07:50 AM

Hey justin, very nice work. Looking good. How hard was it to install the wing? I might be ordering one.

Jmneal 08-23-2011 08:34 AM

Not hard at all, 4 bolts are all that hold it on and they are pretty easy to get to. Shouldn't take you more than 10-15 min to do.

1sweetxd 08-23-2011 09:11 AM

isnt' that the stock wing?

robbiej 08-23-2011 04:35 PM

I am so jellous of you Dan, I wish I had places like that here. I want to go rally style so bad but it wont fit right with my area. Its all street here.

robbiej 08-25-2011 07:26 PM

Great pics Dan.

TheJonas53 08-26-2011 12:28 PM

Thanks. Those were from my trip to South Dakota in early August. I live in Milwaukee, WI so its mostly city here too. I just go off and find places to play in the mud :cool:. I should have some other pictures to post near the end of September from the rally event I plan on doing. We will see what I break this time lol.

TexXBox 08-26-2011 11:05 PM

Nice...

The sky is awesome in your pics. Everything looks especially wicked to me in the black and white-ish shot that makes the background go along with your ride. :cool:

xDizzle 08-30-2011 10:49 AM
