Today got new wheels and tyres, Scion wheels with Bridgestone RE92 17/215/45 which aren't great but were only $100 each.

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?

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.

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.
