Show Off Your Steel Wheels

Here’s mine before i rolled it

 

not a tacoma, but my 91 that I've been driving lately. has 2 3rd gen spares on the front, tundra wheels on the rear. I just bought a full set of tundra steelies for my 2015 dclb.

 

Bruh. Love those caps. That's brilliant stuff right there!

 

Found some awesome stainless steel in a can for only $5 ea at JBTOOLS.com & painted a second set of beadlock rings so I could have some contrast on my truck. The all black has never really been my style. Came out great I think.

 

That looks really good!

 

Those look great! I did the same color on mine

 

I powder coated mine silver, (tried to get as close as I could to the factory silver). I originally was going to go white, but I am happy with how they look

 

That looks great Tyler! I also do not like all black wheels. I think the wheels get lost in the sea of black and you don't get to see what they are bringing to the party! Your silver colored beadlock adds just the right amount of contrast to the setup. Well done..

 

Thanks dude!!! I think so too! She cleans up pretty well

 

Has anyone actually had an issue with any bending in anything other than extreme offroading?

 

This seems like a really good price. Am I missing something here that will make me regret getting these? Will center caps go on these?

That is the same Bay seller I got mine from. And yes these are the Toyota spec wheels as far as I can tell. Factory metal center caps do fit.

 

This thing is tough! Are those 37”s??

 

Yes! But I have admittedly only been a poser since putting them on. Having our 3rd child this weekend = haven’t had much time for wheeling lately.

 

Who cares, it's a badass!
Also congratulations on the 3rd child! My wife is due in 10 weeks.
How was it having two kids/fitting the family in the Tacoma so far? I feel like it gets super cramped in these little trucks.

 

Got my 17" FJ steelies back from the powder coater on Monday and made it down to America's Tire this afternoon to have them fitted. Steelies completely transformed the look of the truck, especially with the color I went with. Big thanks to @Camerasandcoffee for inspo photos and details on his setup!

• OEM Toyota FJ Cruiser 17" steel wheels - P/N: 42611-35330
• Powder coated with Prismatic Powders' solid tone "Thunder Grey" (PSS-5080) with no clear coat (very similar to @Camerasandcoffee 's PPG epoxy in RAL 7037 "Dusty Grey")
• OEM Toyota center caps - P/N: 42603-35610
• Dorman spline drive acorn lug nuts - M12 x 1.5 - black (aren't great as the cheap paint wore off when they were torqued down, probably going to swap them out eventually for better quality ones)
• Falken Wildpeak AT3W in 265/70/R17
• Stock TRD Off-Road suspension
• Was able to transfer over TPMS from stock TRD-OR 16" alloys to OEM FJ 17" steelies.

No issues with rubbing during normal driving so far. May rub on mudflaps when front suspension is fully compressed and near full lock. I'm running the TufSkinz mudflaps.

 

Taking my 5 and 2 year old in the double cab is very tight. It’s not all that comfortable. 3 kids I’m not sure is all that possible tbh. We have a 3 row suv as our family hauler

 

Looks really good. I may look into the tuffskinz mud flaps as well. I have the factory ones which I’m happy with but afraid they’re going to get damaged off road.

 

Thanks! I've got to take it back to the tire store this week, they mismatched the direction of the tires and the raised lettering is facing different directions. I didn't notice at first but I think it would look better if it was consistent.

I'm satisfied-ish with the TufSkinz ones. Best looking set that I could find, IMO. They're a hard, non-flexible, plastic with a rough matte texture on the outside and smooth glossy texture on the wheel well side. If they got snagged on a rock they would probably snap off, similar to how acrylic breaks. Installation was okay, the packaging leaves a residue on them and I had to use GooGone to clean them off. I also used some of my own hardware in spots that I didn't want to use their self tappers (into existing plastic clips). No issues though once they're on, very low profile.
