replace rims?

Im thinking about replacing my 2003 camry LE factory steel rims with hubcaps to factory alloy wheel rims. does anyone know if these will fit? I have new yokohama avid touring-s and am wondering if these will fit on these alloy rims if purchased.

yes i would need the center caps. Why are all these ebay auctions all missing center caps? are these hot collectors?? does anyone know where else I can find use mint condition factory alloy rims?

so you dont see any problems with my tires fitting too, right?

If your tires fit a factory steel rim, why would they not fit a factory alloy rim? Same wheel diameter and width, right? You can also check around the local junk yards and eventually find a set, and they might have the center caps as well, but don't spend a bucket load on crap like this because the car is 7 years old and you could wind up spending more on old wheels than the car is worth.

$160 each for 16's??? Those are wayyy overpriced. Why not just go for aftermarket rims? They are cheaper and will make your car look better. My 17'' Enkei's were only like $130 each.
