*sigh* what the hell is going on with TRD?!?!

TRD stands for Toyota RACING And Development...

those rims are def not for racing. they hired the wrong idiots to fulfill their legacy.

however they would be right for blingers...

hahaha... TRD....
i guess TRD doesn't take very serious in USA...
esp on solara, cause no solara in JP. kinda sad hun?
i guess that's why solara's parts always come slower than other models, such as supra and celica.

Made in the USA

Solara Gen 2 was designed, engineered and made in the USA. Therefore you probably won't see them in JP. I think it was re-engineered for us bigger, fatter Americans (seriously) as most cars are these days in the US.
