    I own a silver tc and wanted to give that euro oem look and well i was wondering if it hasnt crossed someones mind to use for example 18 m3 bmw mesh wheels on my ride. I want the mesh look for my ride and would like to know any one that has used the wheels or something close to it..

    If you can post pictures will help me a lot...thanks again

    Our bolt pattern is 5x110 whereas the M3's pattern is 5x120! So the M3 rims won't fit no matter how much you try. Your best bet is to look to aftermarket rim companies for a mesh rim that you like

    5x100 is the tC bolt pattern



    Honestly, a "euro" look on a Jap car would be odd. To all their own though.

    oops my bad. it's 5x100.. Vicious-0 Web-1 :o
    Although it's a japanese car.. its platform was taken from the Avensis.. available only in Europe.. so wouldn't that technically make it a Euro car?

    Technically I guess you could say that, but I'm sure people would laugh at you if you were to tell them you have a euro car and they ask what type........and you say Toyota Avensis.

    Just b/c they have them there, really wouldn't make them a "euro" car though IMO. Euro would be:

    Opel/Renault/Ferarri/Lambo/BMW/Benz/TVR/Peugeot/Fiat/Seat/Alpha Romeo/Citroen/VW/Saab/Porsche/Audi/Smart/Jaguar/Volvo/Bugatti/Mini (the real ones with Rear engine and RWD)/Land Rover/Vauxhall/Aston Martin/Bentley/Bristol/Caterham/Skoda/Lotus/Maserati/MG/Morgan/Rolls-Royce/Rover/Venturi

    Something along that line is what I consider "euro."

    hmm.. regardless, I haven't seen a tC euro-fied.. and I'd love to see how far he takes his tC towards giving it a euro look Who knows? maybe he'll start a new trend? instead of JDM it'll be EDM

    hahaha..........yeah...........gotta love the "JDM" tCs...........hahahahahahahahahhaha...........

    One thing that I find VERY hilarious is the fact that people get those little "mugen style" booties for their brake fluid cap and power steering cap..........hahah.............just funny to me.

    i think flying cesar has the hyperblack spider "web" style rims...lol...doesn't really look euro because they're not visably staggered, but they're nice....

    for the record, when i first got my tc i was waiting for my girl in front of some office building and some hot girl came to the car and asked if the car was an audi, i just laughed and said i wish...! But that's about as euro as i'll ever get....
