Very very nice man! Now you need a drop, and maybe some tint on those windows, then your car will look sick!!!
Did you ever find any toyota center caps that would fit? Maybe a 2-post spoiler? IMO it looks better than the 3-post, but let me know because i have my old spoiler sitting around. Oh and take those mudguards off smile.gif gives a cleaner look.
Looks nice.

Aren't the windows already tinted? And _mikeE, what color is that spoiler and how much would you want for it?
thanks people, yeah I'm going to lower it just need moneyz, not gonna worry about tinting and spoiler but eventually I will get bad paint parts touched up biggrin.gif
Looks great! Here's mine if you want an idea of what it will look like lowered and with tint:

I've seen yours, looks really awsome. The wheels look so much better in real life though, I'm so happy with them every time I get out the car I look around haha.
Much thanks. smile.gif

I agree that the wheels do look much better in person.

+45 I think
I didn't like them before, but I'm starting to become mad partial. kindasad.gif

blsik, is your spoiler faded or is that just the pic?
For those with these wheels, I highly recommend getting 225/45/17's next time as opposed to their factory size of 215/45/17. The bigger tires give the car better comfort, plus better performance while cornering.

Thats what i have, they do really well in spirited driving. wink.gif

Next to do on my list wink.gif just need new shocks aswell so have to wait until I can afford things.
If only they didn't weigh so damn much...
the scion wheels? thats pretty funny cause they are so much lighter than my previous fully sik uleh rims haha.
Had someone weigh his set for me, 22lbs without tires. My current rims are 14" and weigh about 15 lbs.
