Utah trying to get on the map.

[i]Trying.[/i]   My name is Cameron, aka Vegan.  I'm an advid Scion'er.  I have an 08 xB.  I dig the full on VIP/Bippu look, but I've been a minitrucker for years.  Sooooo, I'm going to implement a bit of the JDM/VIP styling into the xB.  
Plans are:  
1.  Full air, fully laid out.  It just has to be.  :D  
2.  Forged wheels of a VIP'esque stature.  
3.  Faux suede/ultraleather interior.
4.  Decent ICE with too much bass.  :D  
5.  Shave hatch.  
6.  Pearl the bish.  :D  
 
I'll probably be wandering around aimlessly on the forum trying to take it all in.  About like this guy:  :runcoold:

In my wanderings, I've read up a whole lot about wheels and tires. I've done a lot with wheels and tires, and ironically I've spent waaaaay too much on cast aluminum wheels in the past. Glad that's behind me. I've been learning a lot about old school wheels (SSR Minervas are a new favorite.)  The offset/fitment threads are great tools to everyone as well as the tire stretch thread.  
 
You guys in Cali and/or larger cities are lucky!  It would be nice to have decent wheels readily available!

Decided to update this...  

Scooped up a Q45 back in April.  Been piecing together the S14 with ABS swap.  Probably have to buy the hubs new.  Oh well.  I know they're new.  

Car's in okay shape.  It was side swiped while owned by the prior owner, smoked in, and needs a little work.

some of my unicorn wheels!

I've been on this forum long enough to know what to do!!!  Q45 is getting juice, no air.  I've had air in the past and all was well, but this time around I really want to try juice.  Wheels are always up in the air.  I keep seeing ones I love, just have to keep putting money away to get what I want.  

xB is going to be nothing but daily driver with a loud stereo. :D
