    SOLD!!! Ha ha, thanks a lot. I like them a lot becaue you don't see them very often and they look very clean and mean. The side shot is a good perspective. I plan on the 3" lift, but what tires are you running and did you have to trim at all?

    Hmm...yeah, that combo looks nice. I had not seen those before. Post pics once you get your set up done.

    I am running an OME kit, rear aal, from Toytec and 285/75/16 Yoko AT/S. I do rub if I really work at it, I have to crank the steering to lock and put it in reverse to do so. I don't feel the need to trim for my type of driving.

    G'luck and post up pics when you can.

    I saw those wheels on the Tacoma builder when I was looking at what options I'd need, and I never really liked them. IMO they just look like cheapish 3rd-party wheels you'd find hanging on the wall at a tire shop. Also they are a $2000 option. I feel like there are much better wheel options out there for 2 grand. But again, that is just my opinion.

    I love the baja wheels though! those ones look great, and kind of remind me of the FJ TRD wheels (the best wheel you can but on a Tacoma, IMO).

    I didn't realize they were still listed and for $2000:eek:. Shopping for a DCLD Sport they don't even show up anymore. They showed up for the 2011 with the DCLB and stated just over $200 per wheel on the build your own site. I do plan on getting these vs. the baja, because I like the style a little more but I don't plan on spending $2000 for them. I have a few tricks up my sleeve:spy: to get them and my other accesories a little cheaper and by little I mean a lot:cool:. I hope it works out in the end, If all goes well it will be a great Christmas for me.
