New 430 Rims installed.. calipers painted..
Finally got rid of the 17s today! The rubber is Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS Pole Position, perfect for the OH winter weather (yea, right, its going to be 60 here this weekend!) The car rides much better on these vs. the runflats, even with the larger diameter rim. Found the rims on ebay, sent them and the tires from tirerack to the dealership for mounting so they could swap the pressure sensors correctly.. even got a complementary caliper/rotor paint job..

and don't tell me it needs dropped, the NF springs are already in the trunk to be installed in a week or two

They look great. Where exactly on EBay did you find those? I've checked on EBay motors and didn't come up with anything. Also, are them oem and how can you be sure? The calipers looks really good, what do you think they did to your rotors? Congrats

buy-now for $870 shipped to my door .. didn't take long to make that decision. I've seen a few others that were bid only and usually bid up to 1k+s&H .. They are OEM.. 'Toyota' is in the cast on the back of the rim along with all other usual factory markings and they also arrived in original Toyota boxes and my dealer's parts guy confirmed it.. If you look at the 3rd photo, you'll see the 'hub' part of the rotor painted black.. the part the rim is bolted to.
