View Full Version : 3 Reasons why you should purchase the black TRD wheels.....
kenlally 07-08-2008, 02:16 PM 1) The wheels look fantastic, and the tires are like glue to the road.
2) These are hands down the easiest wheels to clean in the world, inside and out :)
3) If your significant other curb rashes them, you can fix the scratch with a $2 bottle of Testers model paint!
:P

1) There are better tires than what comes on them
2) Hubcaps are easier. Remove, place in sink/tub, add dawn + water
3)If you curb them and cover with paint, they're still curbed
:P
I don't even know which ones you're talking about, but if it's the 5-spoke black TRDs (thick spokes), then I will agree that they are nice.
ChelsDS 07-09-2008, 12:05 AM 1) Well.. what if the tires they used on someone elses xD weren't the best like what you have? :P
2) Yes they are easy compared to 10 spokes lol.
3) Curbed is curbed :P
Also.. you can get much better looking wheels for $2k :?
Runawayrogue 07-09-2008, 03:30 AM Agreed.. if they weren't 2k then it'd be worth looking at..
IntegreS_350 07-10-2008, 03:53 PM I like those wheels on the xD, but only if its lowered of course (unlike this one hehehe)
I know you can barely see, but you get the idea

trdsparks 07-10-2008, 03:58 PM 2K from where? Ours are $848 for a set of four. They are nice and I would agree that they are very easy to clean. If we didn't put the 19" ones on our xB I would have tried these but the new xB has a pretty large wheel well.

kris68 07-10-2008, 04:06 PM thats what i thought they look good but are not worth 2000 and i think a 10-spoke wheel would look better on the xd and it would be cheaper
ack154 07-10-2008, 04:11 PM I think he means when you add them as an option (w/ tires) when buying new, they're $1999. Checked and that's the same for the tC.
trdsparks 07-10-2008, 04:18 PM Oh duh, I wasn't even thinking about the price it would be when getting it the same time as you get the car. They really add a lot to the price when you finance it all in together.

ack154 07-10-2008, 04:25 PM Ya, that's like another $30-$40/mo on top of the price. Pretty crazy for some wheels.
cdyerkes 07-10-2008, 08:36 PM my boss curbed his on the second day he got his...lol
I still feel bad for him :P 2000, just to curb them.
Runawayrogue 07-10-2008, 11:32 PM Ohhhh ouch...
If I was the only one driving my xD I'd get some nice wheels, but my wife drives and parks a lot and, well, you get the picture... ^_^
