    I know this post is from 5.5 years ago but, do you know what wheels are on that silver truck?

    I don't believe they are though. I've seen them on a few trucks on here but from older posts. Unless it's an earlier model I don't think SCS makes two-ton wheels with chrome lips. I could most definitely be wrong though.

    They look more like FN Five Stars to me than they do SCS F5s... but same problem: I don't know that they make black w/ chrome rim o_O

    Edit: I'm thinking maybe they're FN five stars and the lighting is just making the inset part of the wheel look markedly darker while the outter portion of the rim is catching the light?

    Maybe do some post history stalking and try and find more pics of that truck?

    Last one and then I'll shut up (promise!). Silver truck belongs to TW member "at_olw" but it seems their profile is set to private and account is possibly inactive. Still no idea what the wheels are (but they sure are nice). Good luck with the ID! :)

    Was at work but thanks for all this. I know they aren't fn five stars cuz that's what I had on my 4runner. But you're the beat for this deep dive. Thanks!

    :rofl:

    You are both correct. Timmy, the avocado farmer from the Santa Barbara area. His original TW handle was @Pliny which he later changed to @at_olw

    He just up and disappeared one day. Never to be heard from again.

    Did you have to trim anything to get these tires to clear?

    I got a double cab V6 4x4 and can't decide between the 880 or 881. I only want a 2" lift at the very most since I don't want to blow CV boots like crazy. I don't carry much weight and the truck is all stock. Would you do 880 or 881? I wish pictures of the CV angle are posted along with the pictures of the truck but it is what it is.

    Also, I'm looking to pair the springs with the OME Nitros.

    I would vote 881's and nitrochargers unless you plan on a plate bumper and winch. I run them on my double cab with the I4 engine with a tube bumper and 8000lb winch. I'm a prerunner but currently converting to 4x4.
