    Too many to list...
    "Good point about it being a Toyota rim. They last. Mine are Enkei that came stock on the 2006 X-SP trim. They still look new while being 10 years old. Some people think they are getting a good deal on a set of rims for cheap, but they don't last, will start pitting etc. and look like crap."

    This discussion ^ is why I opted to replace my 16 TRD Sport wheels with the 4Runner TRD Pros (a toyota factory wheel). Guaranteed by toyota... just for peace of mind.
    That being said, if anyone needs 16 Sport wheels mine are FOR SALE!!!
    listed in the market here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/fs-2016-trd-sport-wheels-500-obo-wash-dc.436118/
    Come and get 'em!

    Eh, I've plenty of aftermarket rims that lasted just as good as factories. Better in some cases. I am a big fan of Enkei wheels however.

    You learn quickly to avoid chrome wheels if you deal with snow or salty air. Didn't want "cookie cutter" black wheels either. I am rethinking wheels for my truck. I cannot put a finger on it but something doesn't look right on my combo choice with the blue. I like the stance and offset but think I should have gone 18 instead of 17 for my rims. Not a very wide selection of 8 or 8.5 wide wheels. Mine is rwd so don't really want a lift to get 9" wheels. Might be the street tire profile. Wheels looked better in garage than on my truck. Just looks like too much tire and not enough wheel.

    This wheel would look amazing with our color. (BBP) Saw it in person at Discount and the gunmetal is the perfect shade to make the BBP pop and the ball cut edges are a nice contrast. This picture doesn't do it justice.

    I just like a little polished or machined metal on my wheels. Thats what is hard to find in 8 or 8.5's. I might flip around to white letters to see if it helps. Still glad to lose the stock 30 offset wheels.

    I've been really happy with my method NV's. The visual beadlocks really pop, and the wheels look even better in person.

    Hi all-- was back and forth about used vs new, tundra vs tacoma. I had leased a 2013, and sold it end of lease (sold for 25K with payoff of 20K=5K equity). realized I missed my tacoma. suddenly, unable to even look at Home Depot. would weep when I would see other tacomas. so, today pulled the trigger on DCLB OR in BBP. was lurking here for a while. thanks for all the info. as you can see, I love blue.20160727_200002.jpg
