what color is the car? my 07 white yaris sedan looked good with black wheels, hence why I ended up getting black rims...one drawback...on the sedan, with no hubcaps...it looked like I had 4 spare tires on...

My car is the Barcelona Red, which I do want to get Black rims eventually... I don't want my car to look like it has 4 spares so maybe I should get the Hub

Steelies FTW.

Moon discs FTW.

Rims FTW.

Anything less would be uncivilized...

Steelie or buy a hub cap like this. I think my stock wheels make my car a little bit lighter and faster.

No, I wasn't making fun! Serious comment. I'm not a big fan of the brushed aluminum look... had a set of rims with that finish once upon a time and didn't like it. I just thought something that large and relatively flat would be interesting with a mirror look. It'll definitely be different!

I've seen those hubs on a Scion xB before. Funky.

OH, totally bizarre idea: paint 'em white! You couldn't be taken seriously, as it would make your car look like a toy for sure, but if you wanted to go the cheezy fun route, it'd be a neat experiment!
