Camry with new wheels!

I would have gotten 18's to help fill in the wheel gap, but these were the only ones I could find at a decent price. What center caps do you have? I'm thinking about getting some in the near future.

I would say stick wit silver.
Now you just need to lower the car. lol.


Now that I think about it, I wish I had a greater drop. These are only 1.2", not very noticeable.

I was checking a Konig site, and there were too many center caps to choose from. I'm trying to look for the same ones that came with the wheels, or something similar.

That'd be great! Thanks!

They're Konig Tantrums. A few people mentioned that they're a little old and wanted these when they were in highschool, so I guess I'm a little behind in terms of keeping up to date with the new styles.

Thanks Damon. There a few scratches and the paint is chipping (which you can't see in the picture) that I should fix. I'll probably get some touch up paint at the dealership before they start to get worse.

I say keep them the way they are. I don't think black would go very well with your car color. How much did it cost you to do your lights?

Nice and clean just the way they are. Don't worry about rockin 17's, I'm down for a decent amount of rubber any day (probably b/c I drive on midwest roads).

I say it depends on what your plans are for the car. If you plan on tinting the taillights, headlights, tint, etc. maybe you want to paint them black. But for right now, I'd say leave them.

Headlights were $80 shipped from eBay. If you decide to get some, I'd recommend finding a set that also comes with the corners.

That's true, 17's are still pretty good. On the plus side, the tires are a little cheaper compared to ones for 18" wheels.

Good point. I'm considering tinting my corners and maybe my tailights. If I do, I"ll post pics and see if I should paint the wheels from there.

hey, the rims looks good. For your car color, I think you should just leave the rim the color it is. Congrats on getting wheels!
