Took a few pictures today of my steelies after I polished them.
Lighting isn't too great, but we haven't seen had sunlight here in ages. :laugh:

I can't wait until I get my summer wheels + rubber and I lower it. :thumbup:
As for now...enjoy!

Actually, for steelies, those look pretty damn good!

I see this as being a growing trend amongst those who don't put aftermarket rims on their Yarii...

Cheers! M2

I'm very pleased with them! I put on those rings yesterday, then polished the black part so they look more shiny. I was worried the black + chrome wouldn't look good, but i'm very happy.

But I've already got some wheels, just the tires I want to put on them are for the summer.

Thumbs up from a fellow MM LB owner! :thumbup:
(maybe I am biased on the color choice) :tongue:

You have a set of winter wheels and you live in Georgia? :biggrin:

Nice mods otherwise, but I agree with the guy above me. Throw on the 'summer' wheels. And also, trade me your headlights. lol

Well they are the OEM wheels and tires. :laugh:
I plan to eventually enter my yaris in autocross, and the tires I am looking into are performance summer tires, so it's not really the wheels that are winter worthy...it's moreso the rubber.

Yeah i'm in Georiga. I'm in Acworth, about 40 minutes north of Atlanta.

What kind of headlights are you wanting to trade? :biggrin:

I'm putting on these babies (not my actual picture obviously, not the right bolt pattern): http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6177/6167606591_fb82c0a292.jpg
Thank you Garm for these awesome wheels. :biggrin:

And I stated why above. ^

Garm's retrofit projectors. 6K HIDs. I can't seem to get them to line up and I'm hesitant to paint them. I want to try a few more suggestions before calling it a loss and seeing if another member here wants them or sending them back to Garm for a sway bar instead.

Atlanta isn't that far away... :biggrin:

Hot car though. How do you like the medallion?

Well if you do decide to chuck 'em, let me know. :thumbsup:
I have wanted some projectors for some time, but I wanted to get a spare set of headlights in case I ruin my only pair in trying to retrofit the new ones.

I love it! It's great for a daily driver because it's not very loud, I can still have a conversation with my passenger while talking normal without them having to go "WHA? WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" All the time. :laugh:
It has a great sound to it too, I suppose the best way to sum it up is...it feels a lot louder then it is, but that may be because the yaris isn't very quiet to begin with and doesn't have a lot of sound proofing.
Honestly, if you had a sleeping passenger...they would probably snore louder then this exhaust is.

I'm very happy with it, would definitely recommend one to a friend. :thumbsup:

They will look even better once I get the coilovers I just ordered. :headbang:
Wheel gaps = not sexy.
I'll be putting up some more pics when both get installed. :smile:

Are those SSRs?
Yep! They are SSR type F. I got the 16x7 size.

Steelies+trim rings ftw.

Love the MM....steelies with trim rings are perfect.

Jealous of the SSRs....those are hot dude.

My favorite tire so far is the NeoGen for a street tire that actually did have grip.
But they have a few gaps in tire sizes they offer.

toyo proxes are also doing me well
