i wanna refinish the rest of my rims, but i need a set of steel wheels with the lug pattern of te mk2, so that the car isnt sittin on bricks while i work on them. any ideas of what kind of car at the junk yard i could pull these off of?

Celica or Supra...

Go to the u-pull-its at around 1-3am, pieces are pretty cheap at that time of day.

Junkyard dogs are myths created to deter the weak of heart and slow of legs.

Viva La U-PULL-ITS!

So says a guy whose never been face to face with a creature bred from the impurities of other dogs specifically for the trait to kill without hesitation. Some call them pit bulls, others call them the hounds of hell. :twisted:

:lol:

But you should check it before you decide to go through the gates. People around here are more afraid of a dog than an owner with a .38

AE86s. SR5s, GTSs (years 85 to 87), they all fit fine. I have steelies of my wifes on my car right now. They're basicly rolling jackstands while I refinish my new rims. But really, most old rwd toyotas should work. The previous generation corrollas and celicas should be fine as well. Just make sure the car is rwd and the offset doesn't look too crazy high. FYI the stock SR5 and GTS wheels have something like a +25mm offset and they still fit ok, they just look like ass.

it can look like as all day for all i car, i jsut basicly want, like you said, a rolling jackstand... and im not alowed to have a car on jackstands in my parking lot :roll:

i could probably do 2 wheels at a time, its took me about 15 hours total to do my spare wheel that i was practicing on... but now that i know how to do it, i should be able to do it faster :)

There are a set of steel wheels for a 280z or zx (I forget) on E-Bay right now.
