I would definitely stay away from those wheels. I can understand dealer pricing but get something that you want but not just cause of price. You will be more satisfied if you wait to get what you really want.

Wheels are sick.

Who cares if they are camry TRD....in the end it's all Toyota! I think it would look clean on a MSM for sure bro.

Looks way better on an IS than a Camry too.

How much are you getting these for if you don't mind me asking.....
