    bunch of stuff - Bro Pro style
    You should play a man card and loose the chin strap bro... otherwise looks great!

    The Bro Pro grill I think he's more proud of that ... promoted!

    Yeah will put more pics up...funny about chin strap...hmmmm wonder if it would look better w/out the chin guard. But yes the TRD pro grill makes the whole package. There will be great pics on Butler Tire .com web site in a few more days. They did the work and a bunch of taco guys there loved the look.

    Looks good, let's see a side profile!

    Additionally, are you riding on stock suspension? If I go aftermarket wheels I was considering 18's as well.

    Dude I'm not sure what offset is but its whatever it is with the new 18" wheels. We did nothing to alter from stock. But the look is awesome on the fuel wheels

    3" Rough Country Lift Fuel Ripper 18x9, -12 offset Toyo Open Country R/T 275/70R18 - 33's Tinted Windows TRD Pro Grille OEM Tacoma Bed Mat AVS In Channel Vent Visors

    Wanted to add a few pictures to this thread since I got the same wheels. Thought this might help giving some more views of them.

    Fuel Rippers in Matte Black with Gloss Lip - 18x9 with a -12 offset
    Toyo Open Country R/Ts - 275/70R18
    3" Lift

    The truck does have a 3" lift which allows the 33s I have to avoid rubbing... and of course the TRD Bro Grille to match. The -12 offset makes the wheels have a much more concave look than the +20 offset from what I have noticed. Hopefully this helps and would love to know what you guys think.

    Cheers!

    I'm about to upgrade from my 16x8 Enkei RPT1 with 0 offset to 18x9 Enkei RPT1 with 0 offset. Next time you buy tires will you go wider, or are you happy with the 275?

    How is this set up with stock suspension and stock mud flaps. Does it rub when you make a hard turn?

    Not running this but I can tell you definitively that 285s with negative offset wheels will rub if you keep things stock.

    That is good to know. I was about to make a mistake of buying the 285/60r18 on my stock sports. Thanks a lot.
