Obviously you asked Curt about new Supra TT rims. Then Curt would be right. They aren't worth it and you could buy better aftermarket rims for cheaper. Nobody is buying the Supra TT rims new. I got a set of used '98 polished rims with tires for about 700 bucks.

PS. I know Curt. Actually I visited him today and most likely will go back tomorow.

the 98, is300, and the TRD wheels all look great. OEM style i'd probably go with the 98 wheel, since im a Supra freak. aftermarket, i'd definately choose TRD, but it would be so frustrating at certain times when you need the horn most
