New Setup - Toyota Yaris Forums

XyresicPsych · 03-03-2012, 10:45 PM

So I'm looking to get some better handling.. this is what I've ordered... let me know if you think I should get anything else while I'm doing these later in the week!

-23mm Rear Sway (UR)
-Tein S Techs
- Got new wheels.. XXR 518's.. but gonna use existing tires for the time being.. yeah I'm cheap

Anything else i should be looking for??

Camber bolts! Set your front at -1 or -1.5 degrees and you will feel a noticeable difference, with little to no increased tire wear.

And.... GET an ALIGNMENT no matter what you do when you've completed this round of suspension modifications, it's required!

Ok.. with the camber bolts, how do you know when they are at a certain degree? and I think I ordered my sway bar from your site, so maybe I'll try to get those camber bolts as well..

Should I wait for everything to settle before my alignment?

Your alignment guy can install the camber bolts and set them to your requested spec. while also correcting the toe change caused by lowering the car. You may want to also specify a specific toe setting. Perhaps zero.

Welcome to the forums - great mods so far!

Definitely get an alignment after the springs settle in a couple weeks. And get us a couple pics. :)

XyresicPsych · 03-05-2012, 03:38 PM

will do.. went ahead and added tokico blues and the camber bolts... and these are all going on a 2012 so maybe first 2012 to have this set of mods.. :)

I wish more rims were narrow like these. Maybe after the wide wheel/hellaflush thing is over, more manufacturers will make more narrow wheels with higher offsets.

XyresicPsych · 03-11-2012, 12:31 PM

Dropped

Spidermandud · 03-11-2012, 02:54 PM

Something about the back looks funny to me. It might just be the angle though.

Dig the rims man

XyresicPsych · 03-14-2012, 03:42 PM
