Wheel experts - what are these?! - Toyota Yaris Forums

33OH · 03-04-2011, 04:31 PM

I've been searching all over the web. There is no brand. Made in Taiwan.

17x7.5 +40

The Architect · 03-04-2011, 04:52 PM

no link.

WeeYari · 03-04-2011, 04:58 PM

Kinda cool. Where is your pic from?

33OH · 03-04-2011, 04:58 PM

There's a picture posted. If you're at work, Photobucket may be blocked.

33OH · 03-04-2011, 04:58 PM

My pic is from me, I bought them.

WeeYari · 03-04-2011, 05:00 PM

Seller didn't/doesn't know anything?

Bluevitz-rs · 03-04-2011, 05:28 PM

looks like a Porsche emblem

Bluevitz-rs · 03-04-2011, 05:28 PM

is there a left and right side?

SailDesign · 03-04-2011, 09:00 PM

Looks suspiciously like a wheel to me, Ryan.

(ducks, covers, runs like hell...)

YAR1S · 03-05-2011, 12:33 AM

haha

TEHxFALLEN V1.2 · 03-05-2011, 03:38 AM

Ship them to me for closer inspection.

33OH · 03-05-2011, 09:28 AM

Haha all. I do believe they may be some sort of Porsche replica wheel. At least Porsche inspired. There is nothing on either side of the wheel. I'm clueless as to what they are.

I did get them on this morning though, loving them. I could use some coilovers and a little rear camber sometime soon.

Bluevitz-rs · 03-05-2011, 10:00 AM

Sweet!! is there a left side and right side?

SailDesign · 03-05-2011, 10:01 AM

Definitely not a Porsche logo, but a good look-alike from a distance. That one appears to have a stork (or an eagle with a veeeerrrryyyyyyy long neck) in the centre, instead of the Porsche's prancing horse with Stuttgart written over it.

33OH · 03-05-2011, 10:50 AM

^ Yeah I did notice they're not exact. But very similar. These are made in Taiwan so definitely not real Porsche wheels (plus they're 17" 4x100, never happened.)

*kimona* · 03-05-2011, 11:42 AM

I didn't like them when I fist saw your thread, but now that I see them on the car I think they look very good!

Klink10 · 03-05-2011, 12:46 PM

Yea, on the car they look quite nice.

PETERPOOP · 03-05-2011, 01:05 PM
