    You might want to start with what size rims you need or should we squint at your avatar pic and assume you are reusing the 16" tires on those steelies?

    Welcome to TW!
    Find a used set of 16 inch Stealth Custom Series wheels if you can, or maybe look at the SCS blemished thread. The blemishes are hardly noticeable at all. Other than that I'd look at Method, you can find used ones all over for pretty good prices.

    Black? are you sure, black? It must be because it's a fad, or you like the cheap, trashy look. Certainly can't be because they look good. Have you thought about a $2.00 can of black spray paint. Can you figure what my opinion is of black wheels? Good luck.

    If you like the look of the TRD wheels from a while back, check out the FN FX Pro, and then call Dustin about their blemish wheels. I did it, saved a ton of money, and have been really happy with them.

    I’d recommend checking Facebook marketplace and craigslist for local take offs.. Might luck up on some used trd pro wheels or maybe fj trail team wheels and such.. I went with a set of 3rd gen off road wheels with 5000 miles on them for around 300 dollars.

    Keep a look out for a set of take offs in the wheels and tires marketplace on here. I got a set from a buddy that was ditching his stock 2019s. Look way better then the 2014s I was rocking, and didnt break the bank.

    Not everyone likes black wheels. And yes, like them or not (I don't), they've been in fashion for a while now.

    But you do bring up a good point. Since they've been "in fashion" for a while now, they're bound to go "out of fashion" pretty soon. That means its either a great time to buy them new at close out prices, or buy them used from somebody moving on to the next fad color.

    I have had black rims on every vehicle I’ve owned since 2003. I think any other color is basic boomer crap especially chrome. Bronze is a decent color though

    Plus ever hear “chrome won’t get ya home”? Chromes notorious for causing bead leaks when they start to build corrosion and the chrome flakes off.

    Congrats Kamille, you're lucky. It's kind'f a hassle to keep my alum. wheels looking good, but when your black ones get a little aged looking, just hit them with a can of black spray paint & they look brand new again. I'm happy you like the black, & hope you're as happy I like something not black.

    I Am currently using Black Analog HD rims, which basically look like steel rims. My dad goes, “you look like just have stock rims? I don’t get it?” I just shrugged in response. What else can you expect from a boomer brain?

    As long as "YOU" like them, it doesn't matter what us boomer brains, me or your dad, think. Glad you're happy, congrats.
