Wrong

I mean, obviously this is horrid, but a 0offset wheel on most vw's and any Honda is nice

A crazy offset on the Yaris looks amazing if done right.... I get tons of people saying they love my car and ask how i fit my rims on it. That offset would look great with some neg camber and rolled fenders

I wanted to try the same thing back when I still had my 240, just to see what it would look like. I never got around to actually doing it, but at least now I know.

I can't understand how the "I weigh 500 pounds and my axles are about to break" look ever became desireable. To each his own I suppose.

I think its the aspect of keeping the wheels flowing fluidly with the body lines of the car, looks good on some cars, thats what ive heard

lol well .....

I should have really done a DIY on it....

I went by the garage door splitter DIY before I realized it wouldnt bend around the bumper.

So I went with some of that black garden landscape edging? the stuff you stop grass from growing into your flower beds....
I got it from home depot for like 10 bucks.
It comes kinda rolled up and you have to carefully flatten it out so as to not have the creases left behind from flattening a curved surface.
Then I cut it to form a smooth rounded surface on the ends (because it wont wrap around the edges). Then I just secured it via zip ties through the lower grille and down through the bottom of the bumper through cut holes in the black edging.

Its complicated to explain but its pretty easy to do if you just go at it... you could drill into your bumper but I persoanlly didnt want to do that so I just went with zip ties.

The only downside is sometimes it rattles on "D" while parked and stops during driving or in "N".... it doesnt rattle at all or move at highway speeds.... pretty sturdy and looks good for only 5 dollars :)



I'll take some better pics tomorrow of how I secured it.

zip ties are just as good as duct tape. Tons of uses and no downside. =)
