    Anyone look at the inside of the Plus wheels to see who makes them? I read somewhere that they were made for Toyota by RAYS.

    To answer my own question, I just got my set and it looks like the Plus wheels are not made by RAYS.

    You need to take the tire off to see the manufacturers mark. They probably also have a code to indicate in which facility and when they were made. Toyota would want that info is some wheels fail in use.

    At the rate I add up the miles, that'll be in 10 years or when my tires are so weather cracked that they have to be recycled. I'm at 800 miles as of today :(

    Just curious, what do you do for a living? I probably put more miles on my road bike than you put on your car!
