now that looks a lot better with the rims. why didn't they make all of them with a rims package as well. the hubcaps was a stupid choice.

like this one MUCH better then the earlier one on camary rims...
what a huge difference the "right" set of wheels make! though i have to admit, i am very particular about wheels vs model vs body style.... i would not have picked these if i bought an rs5, but they deff work for this vehicle..
one happy customer is showing off this sucker right now!!!

looks good but along with rims they should've put the springs on'em too. the gap is huge on a stock suspension

It looks very nice.

I'm actually quite surprised at the number of 40+ years olds buying the new XB and customizing them.
