What about the real measured (not claimed by Taiwanese blacksmiths) weight, by the way?

No... that isn't ALL that matters lol. Buy a nice car and throw on worse wheels than stock.... by all means.
Pay to play.
Oh, and Toyo Proxes T1sport

Fresh and flush installation. Wheels- MRR Design Ground Force (GF06) Black, Tires- Nexen, and Springs- RSR downs.
19x8.5 ET35 - 245/35/19
19x9.5 ET40 - 265/30/19

No rub at all with a lovely concave look!

I can't wait for all the mods: TRD Body kit, windows tint, quad exhaust system and Brembo kit .

That is just stunning!!! Are you going to paint match the TRD kit or keep it black? Dechrome the window trims too?

It rubs quite a bit.. I have not messed with the fenders yet however. I think I might end up going with a higher offset so I dont have to worry about it

I'm planning to paint match the TRD kit. I don't think all black in the rear will look good. The de-chrome is something that I have on my list (including the front grill trim).
