Designed to provide owners the opportunity to upgrade factory wheels to the "big rim" look, the TRD 18-inch low-pressure cast aluminum alloy wheels feature a 5-spoke design with snap-in TRD logo center cap and matte finish black coating. This 18" x 7.5" wheel has a 42 mm offset and a 5 on 100 mm bolt circle (P.C.D.) and a 54mm center bore. This wheel uses conical-seat hexagonal 19mm wrench-flat lugnuts. This TRD wheel is sold individually and includes one snap-in TRD center cap, five hexagonal conical-seat lug nuts and one 21 mm-to-19 mm adaptor tool, all in the wheel box. Fits most of the following, email for fitment verification: 2003-2005 Celica 2003-2010 Corolla 2003-2010 Matrix 2005-2010 Scion TC 2008-2010 Scion XD o Wheels are Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) ready. o Allows owner the option of a plus-size wheel upgrade that achieves the popular "big rim" look. o Provides improved handling response and grip when used with a good quality tire; recommended tire size is 225/40-18. o Reflects TRD's engineering requirements-incorporating the proper weight, offset and brake clearance to ensure proper fit, finish and reliability-to create the optimal wheel for the vehicle. o Extensive ride, handling and strength tests help ensure wheels meet TRD's high quality standards. o Maintains high factory standards for fit and quality.

it's all personal taste man see if you can find the weight spec. compare and contrast to what you have now if they are heavier you will lose gas mileage due to the extra resistance at the wheel although bigger rims will allow your brakes to breath better, although with the TRD lowering springs you may have to add in the factor of rubbing just make sure they clear and get spacers to compensate the offset.
