not too long ago i found a post with someone upgrading to the TRD 18" they aren't the 18" from Scion but it acutally says TRD and i believe its a 5 spoke? anybody got pics? and also costs to upgrade? they look nice and better than the other 18" scion offers.. thanks in advance

 

nevermind.. I dont know

 

Hmmm, didn't they have a 5-spoke TRD one for the Celica GT-S? Those would fit our cars.

 

i found what they look like! very nice i must say..

the price is $1627.95, i wonder if we can upgrade this at our dealership for this price or is it more?

 

oops dupe post

 

I have a set of TRD 18s. The yokohamas are nice, definitely rotate them every oil change . I was told (unverified) that the wheels are lighter than the stock wheels and other 18s that the dealership was selling. This is a good price. These are a great set of wheels, be careful of curb parking though. I park at least a foot away everytime.

 

those look good i like them

 

Aren't there some other TRD wheels too??

 

did you upgrade them? also how much was it if you add it on your car payment? like when i added the scion security it was an extra $30(almost) on my bill. cause i really want them but i want to watch my budget too lol i already spend $391/month

 

i think it was close to 2k, I did get the original wheels and tires back though, giving me an extra set of wheels if i need them.

 

ohh nice, i think i might look for a new set of rims lol. almost 2k? you can get black rims w/ chrome lip for cheaper (well some lol)

 

no black rims for me, they look like steel wheels from afar ;). Though there are some really nice black ones out there.

This is why i mentioned that this is a good price @ $1600. Also note that these tires are ~$230 /ea. and they last on average ~ 30k miles. But they sure do stick ;)

 

^^ lol for $1600 is pretty good, are they on warranty by the dealer? also, how much do you pay a month on your car payment?

 

originally ~$415, but paying a little extra each month has dropped it to ~$320 now.

If you can, get the spring/struts and wheel/tire upgrade, it is an essential mod. My tC doesnt feel anything like the stock one. My BMW friend made a comment while driving it: "damn, this is some tight suspension!".

the dealer does the warranty, but only if the wheel / tire is defective.

 

I have been looking for those rims for a long time now...

 

^^ now you found it! haha... pkg, how much is the spring/strut & wheel/tire upgrade?

 

TRD 18s, but on my Box.....

 

It was ~$3000 for the TRD set-up.

The handling of my tC is incredible. I drove on the stock set-up for about a week before I got the TRD suspension. Having the TRD set-up made the car 100X more fun to drive. Later on I added a Hothkis front strut brace and there was a noticible difference adding that too.

 

I want Lexus rims.

...but those TRD 18s are cleeean.
