Look, you were the first to start dropping F bombs when there was no reason to and instead of just voting and giving a civilized response you begin to berate the idea posted in this thread. We were just responding to your infantile comments. Next time just keep your mouth shut if you don't have anything constructive to say...

BUt I can understand why you would want to have steelies if you are just going to swap them right off the lot. |

I guess im the odd one out when I actually prefer steelies over most toyota OEM rims?
On the scion xA and xB all "alloy" options were heavier...sure they had a wider rim, but seriously toyota? Alloy heavier than straight steel? Ahhh And as I have posted before, the widened steelie look is one of my favorite IF done right...of course. Mk1-3 golf's look amazing with a good set of steelies/tires/suspension/fender work Not that I plan on slamming this car, but I would NOT mind rocking OEM steelies in the winter with a set of blizzaks...I mean snow and salt make rims look horrid and for some reason the only rims that don't get altered that much by salt/dirt/snow are steelies. Haha im about to get flammed ![]()

Unfortunately all forums get this "bickering" and for some reason everyone seems to be the antagonist. So while it may be entertaining to some, I find it sad that lexicon has to endure all this. Sure he said stfu, but I think he was trying to avoid further confrontation and it backfired... :happy0180: = yay |

I dont think they should be putting any steelies on their vehicles the first MY. Toyota will probably try to hype this thing up like crazy.. (I wonder why!)
and all they need is for these non internet nerds to go to the dealership and the model they see there is on steelies. To an average person that screams cheap.. especially if the car is 20k+. They dont want to be forced to have to buy rims. I know you're going to say let the enthusiast have it. but yea, how many of us REALLY buy them? I know im not, i want the regular one We need this car to sell. Let them sell as many fully loaded ones the first MY and then next MY they'll have motivation for TRD parts and blah blah. |

I dont think it would be the steelies that are offered as an option, it would be the alloys. Therefore the standard most model would ride steelies, which just makes the model seem cheap to standard buyers.
