    Hi All,
    Can the stock alloy wheels take a beauty (AKA Trim) ring?

    Have any of you (us) done this? Send pics! : )

    I think those thin, sometimes bright coloured rings, at the seam between rim and tire.

    With the stock 15” Prius rim, I’d say lipstick on a you-know-what, lol. (n)

    It's a small ring of chrome that has the same pressure holders as a standard hub cap but is only about an inch. I creates a nice looking boundary between the tire and the rim. Since the Prius takes a hubcap I'm wondering it it would take a trim ring as well, and if it looks nice on the alloy rims. Just google 'tire beauty rings' (I'm new I can't post a link)
