nice look... did you have a shop do them? and or if you did them yourself... let me know how you did them. I've been thinking about something like that for mine.

isnt in cool that Toyota decided to put a nice looking 17" alloy as a stock rim that can be customized in a weekend at minimal cost? Most stockies on other cars suck.
