    I'm going with the FN FX Pro wheels in matte bronze
    FN Wheels ƒ(x) Pro
    Diameter: 17"
    Width: 8"
    Offset: 0mm
    Backspacing: 4.5"
    Load rating: 955KG (2,100lbs+)
    Weight: 24lbs (approximate) (vs. 27lbs + for the OE wheel)

    I'll have my truck lifted 3", what do you guys think is the best bang for the buck? and where should I buy them online?

    P.S I'm a tire noob.

    They look great, are lighter than many of the LT tires, and still perform well off road, outside of mud and swamps.

    ...and they're great for daily driving. They're quiet and smooth.

    I'd say 75% of the time I'm on the pavement, but, I would like a tire that can take me semi-off roading, thats the whole point I lifted my truck is so I can get away from the city time to time.

    Not a bad price on those!! I know all bigger tires wear faster, but do they hold their tread well?

    I am currently running 285/65r18 Nitto Terra Grapplers G1 on my aftermarket wheels. They are great for everyday driving and perform well off road. The 1 bad thing is that they love picking up rocks.

    Ebay currently has an offer of $100 off any purchase over $450 and the coupon can be used 2 times. This is through the ebay store for Discount Tires. I recently looked into a new set and it was $811 shipped to my door.

    Do you have the exact link? I could potentially pull the trigger on that if they come in a 17"

    I dont have a link but Ebay has the code on their main page. The way I was able to get that price was essentially doing 2 different transactions with a pair off tires on each. I used the coupon & was going to get $200 off the regular price after both transactions. The shipping is free so thats a plus as well.

    Not Mine but a google search of the tire size, brand and Tacoma resulted in this picture. Hope it helps with the decision.
