The Aftermarket Wheel Thread

Just changed my rims to GTX01. 17x8 with offset 45. Gonna lower my car with Blitz damper zzr in the coming months to reduce the gap

 

love this!

 

So I was trying to figure out what wheels to mount on my 2016 Prius 4. I've spend tons of money on rims for my sports cars (GT-R, M3, etc.) but didn't want to invest too much into my Prius. Wanted an OEM look but in 18" since the stock 15 inchers were so small and had so little grip. I haven't seen anyone try this yet so I thought I would give it a shot and acquired a set of 18x8 +40ET wheels from the current gen Corolla XSE. Same center bore so I wouldn't have to worry about adapters. The tires are 225/40/18. They fit like a charm. No rubbing, plenty of clearance from the struts and fender. I can rip around corners and onramps much faster now (to maintain momentum and save gas of course). MPG suffers a bit but that's okay. It looks miles better than the 15" wheels did. I have a set of Tanabe springs and will install them next week.

 

Beautiful!

 

Thx!
