    Donahoe CO's, Deaver leaf paks, Lockright Locker, All Pro body armor ( sliders, front and rear bumpers ), All Pro under belly skids, Warn M8K w/Masterpull synthetic line, Dual Optima battery system, 4 ea LightForce Striker 170 offroad lights, 8 ea wired rock lights, and plenty more I'm sure
    But I want to clean this thread up a little
    before it might propagate further misinformation or confusion.

    Wheeler's is no longer the sole distributor
    of their special specification ordered wheel from
    Pro Comp.

    Would seem that Pro Comp saw the increased sales
    that Wheeler's generated from the need to supply
    correct fitting wheels for the 1st generation Toyota Tacoma's.
    and so... Pro Comp has decided to market those within their
    own sales...
    And Wheeler's has had a falling out... and decided to discontinue
    that line of wheel.

    If you want the same black alloy that Wheeler's had Pro Comp make to their specifications...

    The customer will need to know what that actual wheel model # is...
    and so I am sharing that here... with all whom might care.

    Pro Comp 8069 - 6883 (16 X 8 @ 4" BS / .11 offset Black alloy, lug centric)

    ^ this is the perfect wheel fit for first gen Tacoma's
    if their owner might choose to roll 285/75/16 sized tires.
    Easily clear the oem calipers...
    as well... upgrade to the larger Tundra brakes
    * ^ this upgrade is part#/year specific ( so don't think any Tundra caliper might work )

    be prepared to do some sheet metal work, 2 1/2" Susp. lift
    and if not tubing the fire wall for added clearance
    one might think to enlist the help of a 1" body lift.

    On road only... and they may work ok... with minimal trimming
    and some BFH work.

    As far as the newer generation...
    I'll leave that up to those whom own that and wish to
    explain the details of that.

    btw... shopping around pays dividends...

    in that I was able to purchase 5 of these wheels
    for a reasonable cost of $ 608.20 (X5) tax/ship voided
    and an additional coupon worth $ 5. off...
    using a coupon they offered and accepted at checkout. code > 5off

    this online store... myrubberneck.com

    that is all.
