I just ditched my OEM TRD Chrome Rims for these 20" U2 55S-A's. I'm not sure how I feel about them. I miss my Rodericks (will put them one once I get back to Chicago). These U2s will be my winter rims that will be used with winter tires but for now I will survive. Photo is pre-detail. Sorry. Opinions?

Thanks Black. I am running 225/35/20 Front and 245/35/20 Rear for the moment with these new rims. I want to use these specific rims for my winter months but can't find a winter tire in a size in 20" that fits the SC430. I hope someone chimes in with some size in winter tires that will fit.

...well the good thing about your problem of finding winter tires, is that you want need them for awhile

Thanks! We just moved so coming from a one car garage to a three car garage was the best for a gearhead like me!
