bit the bullet and finally ordered some rims. i've been going back and forth on the konig heliums and the drag rims. drag has several different styles that i really like but i think 17 is overkill as well as the weight that comes with it. i started reading more about the heliums and discovered the feathers. they look really nice. i ordered the exact model in the picture below. can't wait to get them to go with my new trd springs and struts!!! :biggrin:

Great choice!

I think they should look even better than the heliums on the Yaris.

Post photos when you get them on.

Hey guys..

Taking a closer look at that picture, does it not look like the Konig Helium?

I thought the Konig Feathers came in a single 4 bolt application so that there would be only 4 lug holes?

yes, i noticed that too...the 15"'s have 4. i guess it doesn't really matter if it has all those lug holes...but i have to agree that 4 is definitely a cleaner look. i hope my 16"'s have 4 instead of 9.

i found a picture of another member here on the forum whose blue yaris hb has the 16" konig feathers in gold. unfortunately they do have 9 holes. ah well, the rims are still sick. :)

205/50/15 is about the same diameter as the stock tires.

wow, 40 is kind of a low profile isn't it? is the road noise pretty loud? i can't decide if i should go with 205/50 or 205/45? i'm leaning towards 205/45.
