Which rims should I keep?

Which rims should I keep?

Postby Mr. Slippery » Fri Jul 21, 2006 11:41 am

So I can't really decide what I want to do. I use the TRD wheels for the winter, and haven't taken them off yet because I need to buy a new Michelin $$$$ for the summer wheels. But they're kind of growing on me, even though I'm a chrome guy. I really like the lip on the TRD's, but it makes them look smaller than the chrome wheels. So what should I do??

Keep in mind that the picture quality of the first set is much better, so try not to let that influence the voting.

Set # 1: Chrome MKW's

I have the TRD Chromies... I guess I got the best of both worlds?

Those chromies look more flashy, while those TRDs look more sporty... They both look pretty good, but it just depends on what look you want.

Between those two sets... I'd have to pick the chromies... (although I have an extreme aversion to chrome... I think I dislike those TRD wheels more...)

No offense to James, but I'd rather have the 'plain' TRD than the ones with chrome. Chrome looks heavy and takes away from any 'sportiness.' I don't mind chrome myself on white luxury cars, such as Lexus, MB and BMW have. Jon.
