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. |

I put them on , didnt get a chance to lower or wash it , been too rainy. 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. |

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. |
