Opinion on wheels

[1991toyrolla]

Hello All,

Would like some opinions on this set up & if anyone has pics please post them. I am trying to keep it as Toyota as possible

I was considering painting the stock 13" steel wheels black.

Installing the 7" silver center caps that say TOYOTA.

Installing chrome wheel trim rings (don't know if ABS plastic or metal rings are better), both have a chrome finish & plastic is easier available.

Installing 25mm HubCentric (ebay,$90) wheel spacers on the rear so that the P205/60R13's don't rub on the struts & make the rear look wider.

Please give me your input? Thanks

I had 205/50/13 tires on my corolla when I bought it, I really liked the stance with those on there.


Honestly in my opinion, skip the trim rings and just paint the wheels and get the caps.

What color is your car? When my car was white it had the white 13" wheels and it looked pretty good.

The car is burgundy. I want to put 205/60r13's because it is the same height as the 175/70r13's it currently has. I have never seen 205/50r13's but they will probably be too low. Right now it has full wheel covers.

I also have silver paint (from a company called Eastwood) which is used to paint rallye style wheels. Not decided if I will do silver or black. Also, my wheels are the 7 hole style wheels, not the 12 hole style. Hopefully the center caps will clip over the center hub of the rim. I have only seen center caps on the 12 hole style 13" wheels.

As for no trim rings, I think I will try that after I paint the rims & put the caps on. I will buy Cooper Cobras by the way. Should I install them with the white letters out or the blackwall out?

P.S. Thanks for your input.
