WTB: Original ss-III white rims - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #56533 10 posts Started by neuromancer
Hi i'm looking for the original white ss-III rims.

I am hoping that one of the people who own an ss-III and replaced the original rims kept them and are willing to sell them.
7th gen rims painted white would probably be cheaper.

I have been thinking about that as well. But I first want to try to get the originals.
I requested the price for new ones at my local Toyota dealer but they seem to be ridiculously expensive.
They quoted me for € 879,35 including tax..... per rim so its € 879,35 x 4 = too expensive for me.
personally i like the gts rims better. cheaper, easy to find, and bigger. i do really like the ssIII rims though but it's just too pricey. gl on your search

Call me a traitor! See if I care. ;)
I'd rather pick up the ss-III rims though. Mainly because its a 7" wide rim. The 7th gen gts rims are too thin imo.

This might be your lucky day, these might be the rims you are looking for and they are pretty cheap. They are on ebay. Not sure if they are the exact ones but the specs like size, width, color, and design are pretty close. Check it out.

Shoot, I f I didn't spend all this money on boosting my ride and needing extra money for the dyno, I'd pick these up. Although 23 lbs is pretty heavy.
