I think youd fall in love with them, if you get a meaty tire, IDK what size your running, and close the gap and yes throw the decals.

Edit: just saw your running on 235/40s, try some 245/40s couple more mm I think will look dead on nicer

I like the way they look on your car. But what would you replace them with if you sold them?

Damn... tough choice. I wouldn't kick either of them out for eating in bed, if you know what I mean.

This is the finish i would get though, the hyper black looks fine on the website but darker than i like in the actual pics.
Edit: This finish isn't in stock and won't be for a while so i'll be sitting on the 57DR's for a while or maybe trying that hyper black. Surprised nobody has said anything about swapping Rays for Rota's...

Which wheels are those on the rear?

nvm I think they are the same as the front, for some reason I thought they had more spokes

Got the black center caps and some black rays valve stem caps ordered, i had some really nice TRD one's on my XXR's but one of the logo's came off already. Kinda sucks because they were pretty expensive for just valve stem caps.

Been a little cold to put the stickers on, going to wait on that one.

That's probably what i'm going to do, I thought about maybe getting somebody to clearcoat them and see if it gives them some gloss. Either that or polish the lips like TuxedoCartman did on his Volks.

I really like the Project Mu teal color so i'm going to get these lug nuts, Pmu pads, and paint my calipers either black or gunmetal.
