    make sure you roll your guards before you put your coilovers on as no droop on coilovers so no guard rolling machine will roll the rears also on the highest setting on ceika coilovers those rims are not going to fit unless serious cutting of the guards is done check my tread as that is the ride height for the highest setting on ceika coilovers

    That´s why I bought those fender flares. I´m going for the serious cutting you mentioned.
    your celica look really good with the coilovers. what´s the tire size on your car?

    they have to be modified alot to make them fit and also I need to cut alot out of the wheel arches before I install the coilovers.
    this will probably be my winter project. I´ll keep you guys posted.

    Winter has come to Iceland! This last friday the snow was a little bit to deep so I had to leave the celica at home and hitch a ride with my neighbour who has a 4x4.
    And this is what was waiting for me when I got home from work.
    celica is on the right and my girlfriends accord is on the left.
    time to pick up the shovel :)

    It took me over 2 hours to dig up both cars and now sunday mourning I´m going out again cause the accord has completely disapeared again but my celica is still visable.

    they are universial and have to be modified to fit my car. hopfully it will be done before next summer.
    And I´m hoping to have the car painted to, just got to se how deep my wallet is cause painting a car costs ALOT here ;)

    thai, the ones i've been looking at are made to my spec. hence the price.

    that's a lot of snow. i've only been in that much twice

    as far as cutting the arches...welcome to my world! fun times.
