    I am looking to ditch my current 18'' Chrome Wheels for something more " Tuner " oriented for my 2006 Scion tC (Azure Pearl). I have found some wheels that I am considering and adding blue open-ended tuner lug nuts, but I would love to hear what you guys/gals think. I would also like to throw out there that I will be doing Eibach Pro Kit Lowering Springs and I want to stick with a 18x8-18x9.5 wheel. I'm also open to other suggestions as well.

    Thank you! :)

    Those wheels you suggested are fine if they are to your taste, they don't appeal to me. Everyones taste is going to differ, that's a given.

    Thank you Scott for that list, I will have to check those out and see if something catches my eye. I want to do something unique that isn't being done here in my area.

    Those XXR's look sort of nice. Not sure how they would look on your car. Sending you a bunch of picts on your wizmail to look at sizing. Will post up some picts from this weekend's Autorama.
