    Had some Boss 330's on my Armada...not a toyota but just an idea of some rims that's out there...not sure if that's what you're looking for

    the bigger the car, the smaller it looks, as you can tell with the 24's on the mada...I'm sure 22's would look killahs on a taco

    I prefer the deep dish, especially on dropped vehicles

    When you were describing what you were going to do I didn't think I'd like it but I gotta say, it looks pretty nice! Not overdone, looks slick :thumbsup:
