Full Specs of the Rays Sport wheels

yep 66.1 for our cars. and remember that our stock wheels are hub centric in design which means it need to have contact to your centering lip on the car side.

you probably will get vibrations if you dont have hubcentric rings.

damn. that actually looks pretty good.

Scion · 02-26-2012, 07:32 PM

yeah i just need to lower it more, right now its 1" off the front and rear

Scion · 02-26-2012, 07:48 PM

While waiting for my new tires to be mounted i saw this:

so now I have Max Performance Summer Bridgestone Potenza RE050A tires on

235/40/19 on the 9" fronts
245/40/19 on the 10" rears

Rears are stretched 0.5"
Since I got it done at Costco, they inflated them with Nitrogen which is why the caps are green

Rear 10" stretched

Front 9"

On left is Rear and on the right is Front:

(rear looks meaner because of the lower offset)

Tires arent new haha,

245s came with the purchase of the wheels and have 65-70% thread left
235s I bought on ebay for $130/pair - they look ____ty and have little cracks all over and have ~60% thread

what lug nuts are you using? These wheels require the OEM Nissan Flat style nuts or equivalent. A normal acorn nut won't work

Its the one on the far right that these wheels are designed to use. If you use one of the others you risk the wheel falling off or the lugnuts breaking. We had a lot of locking lugnut failures here from the dealers putting the wrong ones on the cars early on.

im using the ones that came with scion tC. they are the same as the pic on the right. there is a washer there between the lug nut and the wheel
