Why run such a narrow tire on a boosted car? I'm using 10.5s with a plus 30 and 295s with rolled fenders and I still don't get traction.

Ill get the fenders "professionally" rolled and i should be fine.

How much power do you have though !!
Most mildly modded 1JZ won't need 295.

You must hate it that I run 275 on 11.5 hehe

Was that quotation supposed to be sarcastic? because my pulled fender looks like ****? if it was, did you know that rear quarter was damaged?

Hey Anis, Whats up? I was just browsing the forum and found this site. I didn't know you posted this until today. I know this is an Old Tread but any pics yet?
I hope you're enjoying the wheels. Lips on those wheels are SICK. I know that for a fact because I saw them in person

To clarify this little more. (this is the info I got)

Those wheels were imported by Dazz as Maya Exxe Wheels even though there are no place on the wheel that says Maya.

Work manufactured the wheels for Dazz.

Those are exact same identical as Work Euroline S2H. The only difference is the Name and the Center Cap.

Carson Toyota had a group buy on the 18's ONLY. They did not have the 19's. Carson Toyota actually asked me where I got the 19's because 19's were really hard to come by on those wheels.

Those wheels retail for about $450-$650 a piece depending what size you get. The funny thing is that if you were to buy Work Euroline S2H which is a same wheel, its more expensive. Like I said before. The only difference is the Name and Center Cap.
