I don't like to assume, but I would think they wouldn't send a wheel/tire pkg in the mail w/ full psi in tires?

I only ordered the rims, got the tires locally , yes it would have been cheaper to get them as a package, but at the time I ordered I wasnt sure which size tires to go with . I thought about getting the 225 45, but got a little worried about rubbing . 215 rims are good for 8inch wide rims, most tire manufacturers have all the specs of a tire listed on thier sites, 215's are good to fit 7-8 wide rims. 225's are good for 7-8.5 wide rims.

Looks very good, I need some rims. GOnna be expensive though because right now I've got 14" tires so im gonna have to go bigger...

Where are some good places to get rim's online? Also, I dont want to go too big, just like 15s or 16s

I put them on , didnt get a chance to lower or wash it , been too rainy.
kindasad.gif I must say I'm a bit dissapointed, the car looks too conservative. I like these rims and I will keep them ,but I'm gonna look into a set of 18inch chrome wheels for some occasional bling. I'll have more pictures when the sun comes back to the east coast.

offset is 35

I should of went with the 18x8.5 version. I didnt think the kit would end up looking normal, it needs chrome wheels , yellow paint , TRD wing and a C-one hood painted not carbon fiber. oh yeah and a 3sgte and a manual trans.
