Dark is good. I really like them! You did a marvelous job. And, you created a little excitement on the yarisworld forum.
EDIT: I may consider painting the centre caps the same "root beer" colour and getting some black lug nuts. (But, I presume you're switching caps and lugs with your other set of alloys). Last edited by kimona; 04-29-2020 at 11:59 PM. |

I have to do some measurements on the Hyundai wheel. The Yaris has a 54 mm center bore, but these caps vary from 52mm to 57mm. I think that's the outer diameter of the cap itself. But the Toyota caps actually recess into the Hyundai wheel. I think the 57mm cap would sit on top of the hole and not snap into place; not engaging the retaining tabs. https://www.ebay.com/itm/X4-TOYOTA-W...8AAOSwUqJdu7fL Or https://www.ebay.com/itm/X4-TOYOTA-W...IAAOSw1p1d-xfX EDIT: After looking at these caps again, they're kind of glossy. Maybe a more matte/flat would look better. I suppose I could clear coat them with a matte as long as the plastic didn't react adversely. Also thinking about satin or matte back lug nuts. Am I getting carried away? EDIT 2: If the silver caps I already ordered actually fit, I could just paint them satin black.

I think they're growing on me. We'll see with black lugs and center caps.

As I said on the 'gram, I dig it.
Interesting that Kimona favors the darker, but doesn't like black wheels. I have black wheels, but as I commented to you on Instagram, think a shade or two lighter would work even better. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! |

Edit: I'm actually thinking about applying a 2K clear coat over these wheels. It is advised against - being a 1K enamel - but if I dust 2 to 3 coats on and let them flash off, I might get away with heavier coats after that. I actually sprayed a little clear coat on one of the playing cards that had over spray on it. There was no adverse reaction. I'll give the wheels a couple of weeks to cure fully if I go ahead with this.

Thanks. The bolt pattern is 4 x 100.
Here's an 'informational' video I put together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7noAaBv_5c

Indeed they are for these models of Toyota and Hyundai. Not sure about other models.
