    I don't know about the front but first gen wheels are a tight squeeze on the back. I had some "fun" with the stock rugged fails( https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/rugged-fails-dont-fail-me-now.337416/ ) and had to borrow a spare from a friend with a first gen Tacoma. His 15" rim required some encouragement to fit. These trucks really do require 16" rims at a minimum.

    Some 3rd Gen Off Road wheels would look good on your truck.

    They might look better color matched to your truck.

    Had those wheels on a 1st Gen Taco...nice for those, but my vote for 2nd Gen is either 4Runner or 3rd Gen wheels. I've seen other 1st Gen wheels on 2nd Gens, seem dated...JMO

    It was a 16" and still didn't fit right. The wheel rubbed the caliper :-(

    And while you're at it, you can throw armor all around, HomerTaco grille, retrofitted HID's, replace all bulbs with LED's, and some Wet Okole's. You know, kill a flock of birds with one stone :p Just kidding...it'll happen with time if you spend hours on this forum lol.

I've done the comfort items already. Remote start, stereo, etc... Hey does anyone have any idea what these would be worth? I want to strip them to factory finish. The guy tells me he just rattle canned them. We're at $300 now. I was going to offer $200. Opinions? There are no gouges where the paint is gone. Just cheap paint that peeled off.
