TX Pro Wheels!

The bead-lock does nothing. If it did, they wouldn't be a DOT approved wheel for on-road use. I have seen them before with the bead-lock off, I think they look good without it. But have others have said, they are not currently being produced due to issues with them not being able to be balanced. I would look into another wheel or wait until they get that issue straightened out.

 

The ring comes off just put the bolts back in and your all set the ring does hold rocks mud and so on so off with the rings

 

those wheels are on the 2011 TX packaged trucks. They are not just available on the 2012s

 

I did not know about the balancing issue! That is kinda a big deal! Has anyone seen a similar style wheel out there? I have not. I like the way the cutouts look in the wheel.

 

The Enduro's don't look the same, but they look similar. You may want to check those out.

 

They look alot like level 8 guardians - the fake beadlock.

 

Does anyone know what kind of wheels these are? I like these too! Actually, I think I like these better, and I doubt they would cost any more... What do you guys think?

Edit: They are AR Chambers... But haven't found a price yet

Edit again: Looks like you can get them for about $200 or less depending on size

not a fan of the silver rings or center cap.

the fj wheel wheels in black or gunmetal are my first choice then the konigs 16 inch off roads, then the 7028 procomps or painted oem. these are expensive and while they are a nice quality the look does nothing for me really and good luck finding them.

 

I like them, but the point of this exercise is for you to learn that who the hell cares what we think. Get them if YOU like them.

 

I agree! I will get them based on what I think, but I was putting it out there for the others who liked the TRD wheel because it is similar. I am curious what others think about it, but how much it is liked by others will not affect if I buy them or not.

But this thread was originally intended to point out the TRD Pro wheels because I didn't see anything about them, but I have kinda turned it into a wheel hunt.

 

I love the look of the AR Chambers! I am actually debating on whether to get those or the TRD wheels you asked about. I have found them on another website called www.elementwheels.com, ranging from $180-$225 depending on finish and size as well. The only thing on these wheels is that if you get them the center cap will not fit, so you will have to put them on without the center cap (which IMO looks better anyways) but you might like the center cap, so just something to think about. Good luck on the wheel hunt though.

 

These are the nicest rims in my opinion. Even tho I like the look of the bronze ones more (on a black tacoma like mine). the black would look awesome on silver.

 

Some thing like this?

 

How many rims couldn't get balanced ? Mine balanced out fine .... Just use a torque wrench when putting wheel nuts back on. I broke the socket that came with the kit .

 

I have just over 5 k miles and my tires are wearing fine. As for the Socket I'm looking for a hardened one that will be better than the cheap tin one that comes with the truck.

 

Let me know if you find any . Mahalo

 

Will do.

 

Not hating on the wheels, but I get annoyed with the faux bead locks. Maybe its just from my rock crawler background, seeing people on the trail with "bead locks" on their rims that didn't do shit. Just trim to make their rig look tough or something...

IMHO, if they're gonna look like bead locks, might as well make them BE bead locks.

 

I thought real beadlocks are not street legal.

 

Idk. I'm from 4wheeling country, If they are, no one cared where I live
