I can't wait to put these wheels on my car...

[SIPNGAS]

The pictures don't do them justice. The blue really pops.

I'll have them on as soon as my lugs come in. :rolleyes:

OOOooooo. I can't wait either. :p

[PreciousPups4U]

Excitement, excitement. What are they again?

Option feather weight.

[staticorex]

feather weight? How much do they weigh?

[SIPNGAS]

I don't think they're that "light"...15 pounds each. That's heavy, isn't it? I really don't know.

[staticorex]

Hmm. Sounds light to me. I thought factory ones were somewhere in the 20's??

[SIPNGAS]

maybe someone who knows for sure will chime in.

[staticorex]

15" stock steel wheels and tires 33lb each.

From: http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3176&highlight=weight+wheels

So around 17ish lbs I guess.

[SIPNGAS]

Really? Interesting...so, will the lighter wheels cause my MPGs to go up slightly?

[staticorex]

Should. Though 2lbs x 4 = <10lbs. I guess the tires will be the deciding factor.

yes, less rotating mass equals quicker acceleration and a decrease in opposing inertial forces...better mileage too :)

Nice wheels Lisa!

[SIPNGAS]

Oh! I read your post wrong. I thought it said just the steelies were 33 pounds each. :rolleyes::biggrin:

[staticorex]

:laugh:

Edited.

Nice choice, i liked these wheels also... they claim that the wheels changes color is that true?

They do? What, the blue part??

1lb/rim you wont notice any mpg change

[Black Yaris]

you going to get some blue nuts as well?

[SIPNGAS]

you going to get some blue nuts as well?

No, I think I'm going to stick with black. The blue on the rims is almost a purple-blue....I think the blue lugs are more of a blazing blue.

[SIPNGAS]

Well, at least they aren't too heavy.

[Giobatera]

Looking sharp Lisa. Luv them....:clap:

[contraband831]

yup it is suppose to turn purple in the sunlight.

[tristan]

[808_Yaris]

[*MAD DOG*]

They look :drool:

[KCALB SIRAY]

I had blue nuts once :biggrin:

Lisa, they look awesome. Can't wait to see them, andif they change color in the sun, even better:thumbup:

Remember I was telling you I was happy I didn't already purchase the blue lugs because the blue on the rims was on the purple side? Maybe the color-changing thing is valid and I'm not imagining it here in the house.

They're 15's and my car is lowered on DF210's.

[KCALB SIRAY]

it's gonna look good

[ROCKLAND TOYOTA]

if they look good their my next set of wheels so hurry up with the install.....

[KCALB SIRAY]

I just talked with her. They have to order the lugs since no one around her has them in stock.

[ROCKLAND TOYOTA]

stupid picture is work blocked so i can't see a thing....

[KCALB SIRAY]

can you see now?

[ROCKLAND TOYOTA]

YES, and no way that purple is gonna look good on my blue.....

[KCALB SIRAY]

agreed, but it's thin enough to spray it and not notice that it was there

Aluminum? We can't use those around here, not without damage from potholes.

Good on you, Lisa!

They're Alloy...

Stupid places around here and no lugs. I'm ordering them today and will get the wheels put on next Saturday. :o/ Don't they know summer is almost over here already?

We have lots of potholes, too. I've already been scoping out more pothole-less routes to my favorite places. Otherwise, I'll be doing some hole dodging whle driving.

[Bob_VT]

Great wheels...... is that similar to saying great legs???? :)

[cali yaris]

the blue changes to other colors depending on your mood. It's like a mood ring. :biggrin:

No. More like "nice shoes!" :smile:

no one around there has lugs? 12x1.5 is only the most common lug nuts.... fit almost every GM car, Toyota's, Honda's, Ford cars, older Chrysler cars

Not black ones. They could only find chrome.

They even called into Illinois. :iono:

[SIPNGAS]

I just called Autozone. THEY have them! DAMN IT!
