New wheels for my Yaris..

I finally decided to buy some decent wheels for my 02 Toyota Yaris.
I would have gone for bigger but its illegal here to change the specs of the tyres without a special approval which im not too keen on persuing at the moment...

And I got a new front emblem as well the previous was stolen a couple of years ago by asswipes ! which used a fork as far as I can tell by the paint damage they did...

i like your car but not the wheels, im a very conservative person on car looks so I dont like 99% of aftermarket wheels. congrats on the purchase though.

Since my only option with stock wheels was this (see pic) where are too bland for my taste, I went for an aftermarket wheel.

We'll I didnt buy it in the first place, so I couldnt decide on that matter and it's much more practical this way when I have several people in the car

Well, I guess cause they can
But they say it's to keep for safty and order, that way you wont have faulty things on the market, everything must go through a certain bureau to get certified that its meets standards and of verious sorts...
