245 pics?

4517 Views 38 Replies 15 Participants Last post by  neo-truth
I am looking for some good photos of the front, diagonal, and back views of the tC with new wheels with either 235's, or 245's, especially 245's on it... I want to show my father who is kinda wanting to turn my car into a small project type car for me and him. I just want to show him what it would look like because I find it irresistable and so I think he will too and get me some... Who knows, but if u have any, could u post them? Thanks, Links are welcome too!

ryan may be able to beat me to it, but if not, i will post a few pics tomorrow when i get to the office.
no sooner said than done.
A little off topic but Ryan what rims are those and what was the price? They're sweet!

those are the optional Enkei EMX super-7 18x7.5 from Scion. they run 1565 with rubber, but not the rubber he is running. them's better and cost more.
isnt he kinda pushing it by running 245s on 7.5s? i thought you should at least be running an 8 if you want 245s
Every body thought including tire rack that it was an 18x8 when I did it. Doesn't really matter though, this tire has double reinforced sidewalls. It's not an issue but it does take some work getting them on there with the over sizing and the stiff sidewalls.
Looks good, but it is kind of hard to see the tire from the back view (which is best cause u can see the width comparison) because of all the light and the silver and all that. It may also be because I can't see worth a S with a hit, but it's cool none the less... But what the other guy said, what wheels, and what tires are those? The tires look really aggressive and probably too much considering I get some snow here in OH, but what are they? Have a good one dude, and thanks for the pics, and others, the more the merrier as far as wider tires pics go!

I like those Eraser wheels... the 5Zigen's just rub me the wrong way though (I think it's just the 6-spoke wheel design in general). It's funny how 1 spoke can make such a huge difference.

The wide tires are sweet though... I want some!


Oh yeah.. and lol @ Bed Bath and Beyond.

I looked at some of the pics of the 245s on the blacktC.com site, and I love the tires, but as far as u guys saying u like the wheels, I personally don't. Now let me ask u all this... The Scion wheels, the extra ones that u can order from Scion, they can fit the 245s right? Assuming that they can (and u all know what happens if u assume something), can u go wider? My dad was saying like 275s or something, but I was thinking it might also look like a ghetto ride with the tires sticking out the side or something which I don't want. Anyways, thanks guys, love the cars, and have a good one...
The optional Enkei 18s can not run 245s.
Err... didn't Ryan just say he has 245's on the 18x7.5 Enkei's? 275 would be waay too big though.

Check out this link... scroll down towards the middle to the section on matching your tires to your wheels.

Look at the recommended rim width for 245 low profiles. 7.5" is not it...
If your using a really stiff sidewall you can get away with it. I run 245's on my 7.5's and I will do it again. But 275s is pushing it way too much.
your wheel/tire combination looks pretty good to me. I am just jealous.
