Nice looking wheels, especially in gun metal. Offset, however, is 42mm, isn't it? That is too high!...at least for me.

I know the 42 MM offset is to high but for the price I couldn't say no. My only concern is they won't fit an I refuse to run spacers.

Konig Imagine, 17x7 ET40, Opal.
Sits on Yokohama Parada Spec-II 205/40/R17

I think the MSRP is around $280 a wheel. I have them listed here at around $260. I'm biased. I like alot of spokes and the opal changes shade depending on the angle you look at it from. The tires aren't particularly cheap though :(

I don't think they will fit with 225/45's.... the tire wil probably rub on the rear suspension.

I don't think 215's will fit either....but I know 205/40/17's will fit on 42 offset wheels.

they are HP Racing 17x7's and I'm running 215/40/17 tires......they are also sold by other companies..like Racing Hart....where they are know as RH evo C2's.
I got 'em through Wheelmax.com for $650 with tires mounted and balanced and shipped to my house.

Keep the wheels coming.. I like to see what styles are out there for Scion. I don't see much chrome. Is chrome out or what?

215 would have to fit considering the TRD rims are runing 215 and I believe they are a 42 mm offset. Can anyone answer that 1. Thanks.
