Found some Hilux SR5 rims with chrome beauty rings and "T" center caps. Paid $50 and traded in the 15's I was gonna use for winter wheels. Gonna run these for winter and depending on how they look I might run them all year. Painted them red, what do you guys think?

dude thats pretty sweet, i love the look of painted steelies, red with a chrome lip is really cool, whitewall tires would also make it look really cool
