I dig it. Are those optional Toyota wheels or aftermarket? I don't think I've ever seen anything that aggressive in a list of manufacturer options.

Nice! I'm assuming you'll be dropping it. The air is a little thin up there.

The wheels are aftermarket, I see new cars with aftermarket wheels at dealers around here all the time. No drop in the works, it's the wifeys car and she doesn't want to drop it, but eventually I hope to talk her into a short drop just to get rid of the wheel gap.

What, 3-4 days after I got my current rims put on she curbed the right rear with me screaming at her not to back up towards the curb or she would hit it!

Chips and dips, Chains and whips, That camry is hot. I hope the rims last for ya. I think a little bit wider tire would offer a little more protection. But looks good

Yeah, lookin mighty donk-ish, but the wife doesn't want to drop it. I am wondering how long the rims will last, we'll see, she has a tendency to hit curbs when parallel parking. We are looking to get it tinted ASAP, but other than that just protectant interior stuff for now. Already found some kits and a hood though!
