I have 15" steel wheels with covers. I want to get real aluminum wheels. Are the Toyota wheels any good? Or should I go aftermarket? Any recommendations? Thanks!

With the amount of money spent on the toyota alums you can get yourself a much better set with much better tires. Toyota set is nice, but if you want to get the most out of your money, go with aftermarket. Try Konig Feathers.

I have the Toyota ones. I love them. I also bought them for 20% off though. msrp is way to high for what they are. Pics in my garage. If you have to pay cost I agree with him ^.

WIll aftermarkets void my warranty? Also, what are some good 15" tires for this car? Michelin?

Aftermarket wheels wont void anything.

I got theToyota wheels and I love them. Clean and simple.

Michelins are hard to beat for all around use and long life.

Toyota alum upgrades they're great.

The dealer just told me the aluminum wheels would cost $700 for the set! That sounds awfully steep...can that be right?

got mine for 360. says so on my purchase order. they just switch out the stock tires. i ordered my yaris with those, though, so that may have made a difference in my haggling process...
