Cool. Wasn't sure what kind of response they would get. Thanks for the reassuring nods of approval.
Now I just need to get my windows tinted and fog lights. When will they be releasing fog light kits for the '09 LBs...

They gave the wheels to me for $70 each, but that's because we also bought some Konig wheels for our other car. These are 15".

Great price. Width/offset? What size tires are those?

I do not know anything about the width or offset. Discount Tire's website doesn't even give that info.. I just reused the stock tires from my stock, 15" steelies. The brand is "MB" and model is "Drifter".

Yeah thats a nice tip and the Rims are sweet however I do not like the bugdeflector thing on the hood but overall ur car its nice just need some lowering to do:thumbsup:
Edit: Now that I look at it more I think its lowered already? correct me if I am wrong

It's not a tip, but a Tanabe Medalion Touring Exhaust. My Yaris is lowered already w/ Tanabe NF210 springs.
The bug deflector takes some time to get used to. It has saved my hood from rock chips though. I drive on the freeway alot and sometimes we get dust storms.

Polished lips are kind of "out" imho, but they look good!

Actually, Discounttiredirect's website gives the width and offset for every wheel they sell.

I'm not concerned that polished lips are out. I don't go with current trends. I like how they look and always planned on getting something like this at some point.

Thanks for pointing that out. Didn't even notice that right below the name of the wheels.

Sorry. I'm not a professional photographer and own just a basic point and shoot digicam. My rear bumper protector is coming up? I just checked and it's still on there pretty well and flat.

I think the polished lips look great. All black wheels are overdone right now and IMHO generally don't improve the appearance of a car any better than steel wheels without wheel covers or trim rings.
