    The machined look is definitely hot on a street truck.

    Your truck looks perfect, leave it be!!!

    I also have a new white Tacoma, I purchased it 5 months ago. I was just like you, trying to make it mine with little mods. I fell into the trap and purchased black rims, drove on them for a week then went back to the stock rims and I am much happier now.

    Looking nice! I'd leave the wheels as they are. How's the ride with shocks set at 1.75 on factory springs?

    I vote leave it be. It looks good as is. BUT, if you're gonna do black wheels, don't paint the TRD Sport wheels black. IMO that looks like crap. Black painted Off Road wheels are ok, but not the Sports painted black. It looks cheap. Get a wheel that is already black. Gunmetal color is cool too. I've been seeing more and more people leaving stock wheels on with spacers and/or bigger tires. Im starting to like that look.

    My opinion......get the '15 TRD Pro black wheels and mount your new BFG's white lettering IN.

    I like it the way it is. I have to say, I'm jealous you already have your truck. I ordered mine in August. Still waiting on it. Just curious, did you order yours or just get lucky at a dealership? How long did you have to wait if you did order it.

    The pictures of your truck answered a question I had about mine. I was hoping they would come with the dark headlight housings. I guess not. :(

    Sorry, should have been more specific. I assumed that new tires would be part of the package with new wheels. That is why I said NEW figuring the OP wanted a more aggressive look than the Stock street tire on the Sport.
