Dilemma. Which set of rims? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

skiutah1080 · 03-13-2009, 11:40 AM

2001 Toyota Camry LE V6. Currently riding on stock since my previous set of 18" rims I had one crack on a pothole and the rim is discontinued so I can't get a replacement.
So, I have a few options.
1) Falken 18" split 5-spoke in what looks like a hyperblack/gun metal color with a chrome lip
2) 101 split 5-spoke in polished silver (not chrome).

Let me know what you guys think. Here's some pictures for added effect:

This first picture is my car with the OLD set of 18s. ADR M-Sport in Hyperblack.

OPTION 1: Falken 5 spoke

OPTION 2 - 101 split 5-spoke in polished silver

Thanks for sharing your opinion

if i had to pick between the 2... i would pink OPTION 1

I like option 2, it will go well with your car because it is silver, but I never heard the company 101 before.

OR get some ROTA SVN (depends on which you like better 5, 7, 8, 10 spoke)

I've heard nothing bad about them and my friends tell me that they are strong and light weight.

The Faulken are HEAVY as F***. and they will bend, warp, crack with potholes very easily. The have a really soft metal build.

go with some bbs rims

TheKevin · 03-13-2009, 02:07 PM

i dont like either set. the ADRs were 100000x nicer

since you like that style and design, i'd suggest the ISx50 wheels.

My 2 cents worth...I personnaly like the Falken 5 spokes...I assume you want the same color?

bigbird · 03-14-2009, 07:09 AM

not a big fan of either, but option 1 looks better.

Go with those Rotas kpszar suggested. I think theyre better than any of the rims you posted.

I can't agree more...ADR totally

simply shane · 03-14-2009, 07:24 PM

I'd go with either option 1 or stay with ADR

I LOVED the look of the ADRs on my car.
That being said, I think I may have found a replacement for the one I cracked on a pothole.
HOWEVER, and I need some help with this, it might not be the right size.

Here's what I've got:
ORIGINALLY I had 18"x7.5" with a 48 offset (most places recommended 42 but Les Schwab put them on and didn't really give me an option)
The 2 for sale that I may purchase are 18"x8.5" with a 35et offset. Will these fit? What can I do to get them to fit? I know for sure I would put the two wider ones on back but I just want to make sure there wont be any issues fitment wise first.

Saw that. Thank you.

And for everybody that voted, thank you, but I am going back to the ADRs!

That's really what I wanted in the first place anyway, the others were going to be an alternative if I couldn't find the replacement.
