trim rings are on the way too ! (keep that in mind for the look)

Like the Toyota center caps with the trim rings!

That would be a perfect set-up for my winter tires. :thumbup: Jealous! Looks good!

(Where'd you find those center caps?)

Looks like the bolt pattern may be 4 x 114.3, all the holes look to be beyond the nuts. But... I prefer the black ones whichever. If they don't fit just right, modificate 'em!

If you can get them to fit, the black ones look good. From the pics, they don't look to be 4 x100.

I've always liked trim rings and centre caps. So much better than the wheel covers.

I wonder how it would look if you sprayed the silver ones black, then adhered the Toyota logos from the plastic wheel covers? Just an idea.

^^^ boom i did think of that and it seems like the best alternative if the others dont end up fitting

wellp neither of them fit haha...damn. gonna go back to what i had (the dust caps) as center caps until i can find a good set that fits. does anyone know where to get any type of center caps like the ones pictured above that attach using the lug nuts?

*poll can be closed*

so i just filed down the inside of each hole a tiny bit and they snap right on the lug nuts pretty snug. its still in the period where im deciding to leave them on or not

^ Damn, looks like a cop car! Love it. I voted for that just like it is -- 100% unique.

push bars
small USA flag right rear bumper
etc.
looks on people's faces -- priceless....

nah, you can buy decommissioned cop cars with that on there and drive them legally.

You can't put similar markings on the sides, use large numbers, say "to protect and serve", etc. And you can't have a black/white like a legit police car. Other than that, you are good.
