To help people out and not have to go to the auction.

It's not a bad rim, but remember when you buy on Ebay, you get what you pay for.

white on white is too much... sometimes they look tacky unless they are flushed out volks cause they are concave.

I've always liked white rims. I hope to get a set myself in the future. I've seen white on white before, and I like it. Like Turbosolara's I4 with the blue lugs I think. And that rim you're looking at has a red ring around it. I think it'd flow with the red from trd badges and gen 1 tails if you switched em. But I'm with Eddie on trying to see if you can get it photoshopped first.

*edit* They don't look like they have a lip at all though. :-?

they need polished lips

get wheels with a lip, some decently thick spokes (not as thin as you have now) and color match the spokes to the car...

it will look much better to me on the lara wid polished lips...
need wheels? www.memoryfab.com - ask for david

if you dont have the funds for new wheels, wait for some to come along. maybe just gen2 wheels and spacers.
