    Ok.
    How about this...the wheel size is 15 X 6 for the 195/65 - 15 tire?

    You could buy a set of stockers for cheap or check out the MB Wheels at Discount Tire. Drag wheels are cheap and light also. :)

    drag wheels would be light wouldn't they
    xlnt tip
    will look into some 15 x 7's if they're out there
    stock new from toyota dealer is a big number
    will maybe look though ...ebay and such
    wish there was a discount tire closer than 3 hours

    I meant used stock. People are always selling their wheels. :)

    Or you get a set of new wheels you like and use your OEs for winter.

    exactly
    think I'm onto it now
    I think you meant drag as the brand name at that site
    saw some when I looked at the MB's
    I was thinking drag 'racing'
    yeah, that'll be cheap
    jeeez...it'll get better I hope

    appreciate the effort, thank you

    Of course!
    (didn't even know there was a 'selling' section here)
    been away too long, sheeesh!
    think I'd better get some breakfast (and maybe a bloody mary) and move on
    thanks for the direction

    Or you can get rid of the ugly stock wheels & upgrade both your summer & winter wheels like I did! :LOL:

    I can't wait for the temps to drop so I can try out my new winter set up!
