07 Blue Ribbon SE w/ aftermarket wheels - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Hey all. I am getting ready to purchase an 07 Blue Ribon SE. One thing I am considering is aftermarket wheels. I cannot believe how hard it is to find pics of the BR with aftermarket wheels. It seems that there are fewer BR's in general and most of the pics I've found have stock wheels or chrome wheels. I would prefer silver painted wheels. I really like the Rial Como's that one of the TN members has on his silver SE.

Is there anyone out there with non chrome aftermarket wheels on their Blue Ribbon 07? Silver painted or maybe gray? I am really curious how the gray wheels would look, even though I prefer the silver painted.

I am curious how something like these below might look. It is kind of hard to see on Tirerack's page.

Thanks Super. Yours is one of the few that I have found. I really like those by the way.

In a way, I'm glad that the Blue Ribbon is so rare, but I can't find any good pics to get ideas from. I've had to start looking at other models of cars to get ideas!

I still haven't seen a blue ribbon Camry in Colorado yet...

Those are your winter ones? I really like those. (You whole car looks real sharp BTW) I like them better then mine...hehe
I would use them for the summer too. What are you using in the summer months?

Silver or some type of gunmetal would be fine. You're making it harder than it really is.

Ok...cool. I don't care for the Stock rims on the XLE. I like my After Market ones a lot better. Takes away that "clone look".

Yours look really sharp with the after market ones. Hell, I would keep those on. Did you purchase 4 more "Tire Monitors" for the winter rims? Or, is your LED light on all the time now?

Come to South Bergen County NJ. Blue Ribbon Camrys' are a dime a dozen. Most have the stock wheels, although I saw one with American Racing Casinos which I personally like.
