regular 17" rims weights about 18lbs per rim + about 22lbs of tires X 4 rims = 160lbs total..
regular 15" wheels weights about 10lbs + about 26lbs of tires X 4 wheels = about 144lbs total.

Rep Power: 0 um wow all I can say is wow, I post up something that happened, and here u guys flame back and forth...all my intention was to tell u a story that happened to me...a corolla is not a porsche, a ferrari or a lambo, I don't write BS about me beating Corollas LOL. As for all of you that think I BSed about beating one, you can search all the posts that I respond to and start, no where do I make BS up outta my A$$. As Celica said, because he pulled on me and I pulled on him, that corolla guy might've mishifted and I lucked out...especially with my 18inches and ICE in my car. No I'm not saying I hate corollas and never did I say Corollas are sh11ty cars b/c I drive a civic myself...so don't start flaming me just cause I posted an experience that was all up for some pleasure reading...and no where did I state every single details about what he had under the hood and such, I said I was amazed that I won...note: I WAS AMAZED...so there be it, stop flaming and enjoy the dam stories for crying out loud!

Rep Power: 0 ^^ what track times do you run?
also saw the mention of the xrs corolla. kinda sad they detuned the 2zz
also with the less aggressive gearing it'll be similar to the 2002 gt-s only with a lil less power. should be able to take an SI though I'd imagine. it would be a close race though.

yea.. TC looks sooo good... love that car... can yea.. it's under $20,000
i heard a rumor that Celica will be gone in 2005 cuz TC will take over of it...
my future plan for my car is getting the big bored kit to bored my 1.8L 1ZZ-FE engine to 2.0L.. and getting new forged piston, rods, and new throttle body... then change the supercharged pulley from 6.5 lbs to 18 lbs.. and have toysport to custom made an intercooler, that should take my car over 300hp.. BUT... still saving up.. no money now since i just got marry this passed weekend... lol...

Rep Power: 0 the scion TC sint gonna replace the celica it might change a bit, but looks like it's gonna be here throgh 2006. thats what i've heard so far.
s/c tc is gonna have 200 hp from the factory and weigh in around 2800 lbs. not a bad setup.
I believe its the tundra thats gonna get a face lift for 2005 also.
check our team website www.ds-r.com we have a post about it. we have inside connections at toyota so we get all the cool info before anyone else

yea.. Corolla XRS will be coming out on May 1st.. the price will be $18,000, it will have 170HP 2ZZ-GE VVTL-i engine, 6 Speed Manual Transmission, TRD Springs, stander 4 wheel disc brake with ABS, and alot of new goodies... too bad i already got a corolla.. or else i would buy it
i don't think 4 wheel disc brakes are that great though, except for looks.
