Just ordered new tires and wheels today. Going with 17 inch Five Axis S6 wrapped with Continental DWSs.

TIRE SIZE ?

Doing the body kit ?

Not sure about the body kit. I wanted one, but Five Axis makes it really hard to buy their products. Too much work and hassle to make it happen. So, for now, I have decided to wait and see how it looks without one.

I think I went with a 205/40, but can't remember. Didn't want anything too wide for mpg reasons. I also considered the 215/45, but decided against it.

I also considered 18s, but decided that for as much as I drive, the 17s just made more sense for me.

I am putting the TRD springs on it.

How do you think this setup will look?

Oh yeah, the car is Blizzard Pearl and the wheels are gunmetal.

Interesting. I'll keep an eye on this thread since modifications always interest me haha

Does TRD only offer one type of spring setup for the Scion iQ?

17's are probably an idea size for the iQ, can't imagine it with 18's.

Yeah, TRD only offers one. I think it is about a 25mm drop. TEIN is the other option, which I believe is a 35mm drop.

I ordered the springs and sway bar today. Should be here tomorrow.

Does anyone know what the bolt pattern/mm spacing is on the original 16/5 wheels?

Thank you.

Nevermind. 4/100

Yhea im gonna use the rims i have on my xB on the iQ when i get it. Im running a 205/45/17 BSA Motorsports rim Black with a chrome lip should look good on the white.
