looking nice! You definately need to lower your car since your tires are so low profile.

They are the Nex-O TS-8's, I got them from WheelMax.

And the tires are 235-40-18, a bit low profile. Im not sure how much it costs to get the TRD springs installed, but if it's too expensive then i'll just get a higher sidewall on my next tires.

Cheapest place I found for the TRD springs is here (I just received mine on Monday):
https://www.1sttoyotaparts.com/partscat.html
Part# PTR07-06040-19
$178.39 + 10% S&H

Installation costs vary, I've heard as low as $150 for all 4, and my guy charges $60/each. I'm going to try and do it myself this weekend to save the money.

Don't forget that you will also need to pay for a 4-wheel alignment a couple of weeks after you install the new springs and your car settles.

Thanks guys, the rims look so much better in person to, and the gap isnt as great as it looks in the first pic. First thing tomorrow im going to get some nice shots.

And thanks for the link to the TRD springs, i'll really look into those. How much exactly do they lower it?

If I were to get new rims again, I would look at 19's. I was afraid that 18's wouldnt work to well or fit that good, but seeing all the extra space you could go 19's and have an even bigger sidewall!

btw, the tires have a +42mm offset, and theres plenty of clearance between the struts and the tire.

Now you definately need tint to compliment the wheels.
