    The wheels that came on my truck proved to be quite rare. They are 18 in Enkei wheels and I can't find them for sale anywhere. I have seen only one other truck that had them.

    - If you have the same wheels post a pic below.

    - How much do you think they are worth?

    - What are your thoughts about them?

    They're only worth what someone is willing to pay and unfortunately, that's probably not much in an already over-saturated market where the items aren't even collectible. You'd be better off if you had 4 Honus Wagner's on there.

    I think the wheel looks good, but I'm not crazy about the center cap. Asking for opinions about how a wheel looks is pretty pointless. The only opinion that should matter is yours. One thing that I look for in a wheel is inherent strength. Frilly complicated designs that give some guys a woody, do nothing for me.

    Not popular but they are OEM Enkei's TRD XSP wheels for Tacomas and Tundras. I believe they come in 18" and 20" sizes. Seen them on eBay.

    They probably looked really good on the truck back in 2005 but in 2019, they're outdated. As ChrisNJ said, they're only worth what people will buy them for. See what you can find on ebay for them and try to sell for similar price based on condition. Other than that, some KO2's would wrap them up pretty well and make them look decent IMO.

    @TexasTacoDriver If you like the way your wheels look, run them on your truck. Your opinion is the only one that matters.

    - if you wheel them, scratch them, gouge them on rocks and . . . -wait - they are 18" Nah that's no good for off-road.

    Sometimes things are rare because they ugly, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. This beholder thinks, wtf was the OEM thinking :puke:

    They're round and serve a purpose. Hang on too your money and don't buy new rims. They probably aren't worth much anyway. Keep 'em and drive. :thumbsup:

    OP, please teach us a lesson. Shut us up by painting the wheels black, swap center caps for flat ones, then slap some 285/70 BFG KM2's on them with a 3" lift/CMC and we will take back what we posted.

    I've almost done that several times but I think I want to just go with a smaller wheel for the long run anyway...

    With a set of 1.25” spacers and some black paint...wrapped in Duratracs...you could pull them off.

    unfortunately, those wheels didn't age as well as some of the other older toyota stuff, especially with them being 18s there really isn't a huge demanding market. I bet you could still get a few hundred for them though

    Look good to me. Kinda similar to the Ivan stewart TRD wheels.

    What really matters is that you like em OP, you're the one who has to look at em everyday
