Thanks. I also have a 10mm spacer in front and 15mm in rear.
That wheel is unmatched for looks, weight and price, that company needs to make more than 3 different wheels.
The tires are doing great too. Lots of grip and they are seeming to last quite a while now.

Spacers?! Do you have camber adjustment then? Because I couldn't imagine putting spacers on.

My only grip with the look is the matte finish actually. I think later on I will probably have them refinished to a gloss(kinda) black/steel, or just move to 18's, idunno yet.

Camber bolts in front bringing it to -1.8 and naturally -1.9 in rear from the TRD springs. It doesn't really need them but the spacers make it fit perfect instead of just good in my eyes.
It makes them look almost exactly how the 17x9 versions fit.

I have had them on for I think a year or so now and really thought I would powdercoat them too but they are just really easy to keep clean like that. The unfinished silver in between the spokes
is why I thought I would do it though but the matte just really works. You just don't see any dirt or brake dust at all. I also only go maybe 150 miles in between washes though since I don't drive it much.

I just use the electric pressure washer on them like I do the rest of the car so I am not really ever touching the car or the wheels keeping it touchless as possible when cleaning it to avoid scratching.
I wash every couple weeks like that and when I did the full wash, clay, seal, and wax on Sunday, I cleaned them by hand and they were really clean for not actually ever touching them since I got them new.

! I will be doing TRD springs as well, very soon infact.

As a daily driven car, in all weather conditions, hand washing is a must for me. I find that any pressure washer or touchless anything just can't get the level of grime off the car that I would be satisfied with.

The indy 500's are a great budget tire. I'm getting a set in the same size in a month or so. I've found them just a shade under $700CAD tax in.

It was finally warm enough[9c] to give the car it's first hand wash of the season.

I've been dying to touch the car since november, which have been nothing but touchless washes. Surprisingly some of the sealant from last season survived on the roof and upper pillars. I ordered all of the shit I will need for a proper decontamination wash.

"Real" tires just got delivered, and the mobile installer will be here this afternoon to get the junk tires swapped out with these. Looking forward to giving this car the grip it deserves. Got super lucky and found a wildly good eBay deal.

These were actually discounted because of the manufacturing dates—all 2017. Two years is nothing, really, and they were always in a temperature-controlled warehouse. Less than $99.75/each (delivered!) for brand-new PS4s... Not bloody bad.
