Winter Yaris = bling steelies - Toyota Yaris Forums

Thirty-Nine · 12-10-2009, 02:03 PM

185/65/14 studded snow tires on 14x5 (+45) steelies with a special silver paint. Okay, it's not special; it's Rustoleum.

And I thought the steelies looked silly with their original color...

Looks good... much better than black steelies, IMO, and also better than plastic wheel covers too.

I concur, which is why I did it. I'm not a fan of black steelies ... or running hubcaps. They're only on during possible winter weather—something we don't get a lot of here in Portland.

I certainly don't think they look "silly," but that's just my two cents. This is silly:

it is silly, yet you are doing it. (even PS'd) :D

Simple and no-nonsense. I like them. IMO that's how all Yarii on steelies should look like right off the dealer's lot

WoW, those are 14's . my 15's would look sweet if I painted them up like yours. Nice job there.
