Well done Jedi!!,

And you've got a venza too!! We're twins! :Bruce: :thumbsup:

You were the one that got the wheels and were wondering whether they would fit, right?

And which tire did you go with?

Need side pics. I think they look great! The gen 4 is not easy to do attractive wheels on and I think those look awesome!!

:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Nice alloy wheels. Less rotating mass for improved fuel economy, less flexing, noises, and simply look better. :thumbsup:
will it really improve fuel economy? i was driving home a little while ago in the rain coming home from the movie theatre and driving over speed bumpbs was definatly firmer, i should prolly get a alignment though right? i have a lifetime alginment at firestone so its a not a big deal but i noticed its pulling to the left a little. and is the wheel gap bad?

i have a arm gap on mine with 14 inch stock wheels... i just replaced the wheel cap.
before (when i got it 195/70/r14):

before (after i got new tires, an inch thinner but the radius is the same 195/60/r14):


after (when i got the wheel covers from autozone):

they look familiar huh...

after (after I painted them with plasti-dip today):


you got no finger gap problem man... look at my arm gap...

Its up to you whether you want to worry about the fender gap or not. Really, you started out with little tucked in 14" stuff, and those shoes move way outside in those wheel wells, and give the car a nice wide stance from the front or rear, and look 100% better from a down the side view or side on.:thumbsup:

Now if you want to lower the car... (close the finger gap) you might get a few more props from the hard core enthusiasts, but its a big cost, and head-ache to do. I really think its great the way it is.:)

5-spoke alloys always win :)
I love 5-spokers, they always look better than any 6 or 7 spokers that I have on my solaras (they are stock alloys in sizes 15'' and 16'' for i4 and v6 respectively).

I love your wheels :D
