Just curious on what everybodys opinion was on the Scion stock rims.

I think they look better than the GT-S rims.

i like them too. But they have the scion logo on them. I know its all the same parent company, but i dont like the idea of one car brand on my wheels and another on my car.

imo, our cars have very "organic" lines, so to say... smoothed over edges, oval shapes, no dramatic angles... stock scion wheels, on the other hand, are all hard edges, perfect symetry... so in otherwords, i like the wheels yes, but on a 6th gen no way thumbsdown.gif

^ disagreed...

Did a little photoshop to my car so I could see what they'd look like and I don't really mind it at all.

they look ok but I have a feeling you are going to see those wheels everywhere in a few months. the tc is pretty popular around here, as I'm sure you know, and those rims come standard so they are on all of them. stick with the gts rims, which I realize aren't exactly rare either but in years to come they will become harder and harder to find. my 2 cents

Isn't an offset of 45mm quite a bit for a Celica? It seems like they'd look very "pushed-in."
