    I agree Marvin, they are not the best as far as racing wheels or high performace.
    I wouldn't trust them on my suby or for track use but for the prius, they will be ok.
    That has happened to my brother when he smacked into a curb trying to drift.
    That picture is a rota wheel on an STI or a suby with brembos.
    Which is pretty stupid as STIs come with forged BBS wheels which I have on my suby.
    So guys going from a forged wheel to a cast wheel is just plain stupid.

    Thanks Marvin for looking out ;)

    Haha, they're not the BEST, but they're decent enough to where 18s with low pro's wouldn't matter too much.

    I'm assuming you mean the Autoclub Speedway?

    My mom and I both work there...so that could be doable. =X

    Seen your car before and seems like you need to lower the car.

    I think so too. Nothing too crazy. Maybe just an inch to inch and a half.

    I like it a lot and it goes well with the body kit but I agree would look even better a bit lower.

    Don't know of any on the Inter-web.

    But as alternatives you can get the whole rim chromed, ~$1,160,

    or even the whole car: :eek:

    I'd say check with chrome platers in your area for a
    quote on your wheel covers.

    Ive seen 16" touring wheels on their just recently, either chromed or polished. But they want a high price for them

    Very nice! Love the black tint all around (which would be completely illegal here :mad: )

    Oh it's no different here. California's actually pretty strict on their tint laws.

    Ohhh, I really like this. Looks clean with the drop. And the black/chrome goes really well with the car. Nicely done.
