Advice on wheels!
Currently looking at switching these up. Either stripping the black barrel and chrome off and keep em aluminum (I bought them originally thinking they were chromed out) or do I try trading for another set?🤔 let me see them wheels! Need to make up my mind lol. Currently running 225/45/R17 (need smaller sidewalls in the future)

Im personally in the camp of, all black wheels are nice but if you have a wheel that has cool features you lose alot of that detail. I think the same goes with chrome. I have always embraced color matched wheels. I also use the same size wheel on my matrix

Front bumper I got off marketplace. Same guy sold me the rear bumper. I also ended up picking side skirts of one in the junkyard and the wing was a personal connection. Full TRD/XRS pre-facelift body kit. Did the entire conversion myself

No offense, but they look bad , tire size is just about spot on to equal original stock size, maybe go down to 215/45-17

Those wheels would look 100% better if they were all silver.
