They're already black. They're just terribly ugly.
Plus, the weights fell off on the back tires with the hubcaps. I called Toyota and they can rebalance them for $50 and they'll put the weights behind the rim & put my new hubcaps on them. Sooo...guess that's what I'm gunna go with.

Pretty sure America's Tire or similar will charge you about half that. Good idea to call around - balancing your wheels is definitely not a warranty breaker.

beebosaur · 11-01-2011, 05:22 PM

the 26th? mann... gna be in vegas that weekend. hopefully i can make it to december.

cali yaris · 11-01-2011, 05:32 PM

^ I was kind of hoping for a weekday meet, Saturday on Thanksgiving weekend is a little iffy.

BURRITO · 11-01-2011, 05:35 PM

The nearest America's Tire is in Poway, about 45 min from me, while the nearest Toyota is 10 min. But you're right; I'll shop around. I just want to go to someplace reputable.
I wish I wouldn't have bought through a dealership now. There's too many things that could invalidate my stupid warranty.

& I'm not up for a weekday meet. I'd never be able to make those. I get off too late and you guys are all a couple hours from me. D:
Maybe we could do it around Veteran's Day weekend or that Friday? It's pretty soon, but it's a paid vacation for military so I wouldn't have to work and it would still be a weekday.

I like these hubcaps for the stock 15" Yaris steelies:

Or you can search for some Hello Kitty ones...

Lol, those are too plain. I'm not into Hello Kitty so much. I'd go crazy for some Pokemon ones though!
I saw a meteorite metallic Yaris on here with the stock hubcaps blacked out. I think I'm gunna do that this weekend. My hunni will balance my wheels for me this Sunday. Woo, only $10 on base if you do it yourself! :D
Anyway, if I don't like that look, I'll get something nicer. I like steelies...just not the stock ones. I parked Barnaby off the street lastnight because he looks so bad. D: I feel bad for it, but I don't even want to take him to the car wash!

Maybe we can shoot for sometime next week?

Evenings and weeknds work best for me

cali yaris · 11-07-2011, 03:06 PM

stock wheels with trim rings (and caps even better) are a very cheap way to dress up your wheels:

LA Yaris · 11-09-2011, 06:22 PM

So when's the nwxt meet ?
