    Hey everybody,

    I'm tired of the rig looking so stock and "cute" and I've finally figured out which model wheels I'm going to get for the taco. I'm looking at the 18" Moto Metal 951's. I've found a couple of pics floating around of of them in black on the DC Radiant Red. Does anyone have them in chrome on their Radiant Red?

    Here's the pics I've got already of the black.

    Also, new topic.....I put on about 650 miles a week on my pickup and I know these don't usually exist but I'd love a tire that looked aggressive, had a great ride, and wasn't so heavy it killed my mileage.

    Here are the ones I'm looking at so far in a 285/60 r18 (yes I plan on some new coilovers and leaves to raise er up): Nitto Terra Grappler, Cooper Zeon, or just settle on looks and go with my trustworthy Michelin ltx

    Motometal 951s are probably the most played out wheel for trucks in the whole world. But red and black is a great combo. There are LOTS of good looking black wheels available.

    Great, so since it's such a "played out" wheel, surely somebody has some pics of the Radiant Red DC Tacoma with a set of chrome 951's on it I could look at.:D
