19's + Tein + TRD *PICS*

19x8 TSW Vortex, 215/35-19 Falken's, Tein s. tech springs, TRD struts

The ride is pretty stiff, could be stiffer although tein is more about ride comfort than sport.

Before:

After:

To my suprise the TRD struts are about 2 inches shorter than the stock struts. i dunno if that also has any impact on the ride height, but she's a heck of alot lower.

215/35-19 Falken Azenis's, which have a unique curved sidewall. The tire is a little streched on the 8" rim, so my side wall is somewhere between a 30-35 aspect ratio

The sun has gone down a little so i took some more pics. My wheels have a hyper silver finish to them, almost identical to the factory 17's finish, so here's a few pics to better show the color. The other pics were taken in direct sunlight and the sun has a tendency to diminish appearances.

oh and here's just a misc picture. Some really nice aluminum OBX sport pedals from www.TRDSparks.com for only $30

I'm trying to decide on 19s or 18s. Those pics makes me want 18s. I have H-Techs waiting to be install BTW.

Yeah, seems like you are riding on rims instead of tires. I would be afraid of pot holes like i am afraid of clowns.

It does kind of look oversized for it, but I have seen other 19s that are perfect on them. It might be the tires tho.
