    Please read the actual description and my post. They say they use the OEM part and powder coat them. I wanted to know if there is any other difference

    You should read the ebay title where it says they're replicas.

    No. You can get the originals if you shop around a little. Yes, they are overpriced replicas as everyone else has stated. I will look around and see what I can find. Should be able to find them around $700.

    Okay, how's this...

    These are over priced for replicas and there is no difference between THESE wheels and real TT Wheels. (Dimensions are the same and the color is close enough)


    Have a good night...

    Ok so 550 and about 75 per wheel powdercoated so about 850 would be a fair value then?

    And thanks to those who are being helpful and not condescending, I'm about one month in on being a taco owner so it helps having a source to research and ask questions

    But dude, check out Craigslist in your area...you may be able to find some FJ wheels for way cheap and then have them powder coated any color you want :)

    Type in that part number on any search engine and you will see that they are the correct wheels. They are legit. I've called and spoke with someone about them in the past and ordered parts there before.

    mostly a matter of preference right? I mean with trucks its the tire more so than the wheel for performance (to a certain level, not talking bead locks)
    right?
