Whilst I'm not really into Yank stuff, the quality and attention to detail of the stuff these guys produce is stunning :

the quality is stunning and yet.... the wheels (again!) just don't work for me

This. Smaller wheels with more sidewall. Sidewalls are like sideboobs - the more the merrier.

Personally i've always found big body cars like the charger good with larger wheels, a set of 18-20's look alright on them and sure it could use more sidewall i'm pretty sure the Speedkore cars are pushing out atleast a decent 800+hp so I can imagine they have some gnarley huge brakes behind those big wheels that in most cases you probably couldn't fit anything less than an 18" wheel over.

Quoted figure is 950-1000 ponies and 950 torques in the one I posted images of.

Brakes look pretty substantial :



But 950hp takes some reigning in (Speedkore reckon this car tips the scales at just over 1500kg) which given it's size I'd say is pretty reasonable.

As for the "Celica" - I know it's wrong, but I love it. Someone has created an utter track monster then clothed it in something so off to the side of the Jap scene that it would only have got a bit-part in TFATF. You can imagine the looks at a trackday when that rolls off the trailer...then the completely different looks when it screams past people with THAT V8 wail...

Would go something like this:

I have to say that I'm surprised that they're only 19's - thought they were a fair chunk larger

It would look better if you were walking around with that 7ltr V8 in a wheelbarrow

This looks impressive

mythbusters literally proved that you can polish turds

Following the Aztec turd polishing. I give you this.


I think the offroaderness suits the PT, and this looks better than the standard car to me, if a bit OTT. I think there might be a happy medium of a PT SUV, less lifted and rock crawler spec than this, but chunkier than the standard car.

It looks better than the original, so it's definitely decently modified.

It is a bit like a baby Grave Digger, I’m ok with it. But then I do have a slightly unhealthy obsession with off-road versions of cars that are not supposed to be off-roaders

Wheels are great. Whole thing is glorious.
