    This is plastidip: http://www.plastidip.com/home_solutions/Plasti_Dip

    It's a rubber coating, not paint. It just peels off when you want it to. It's great. And you can get it at most hardware stores. Here's a big thread on the stuff. Tons of uses. Guys go crazy with this stuff.

    I like them too, but I'm thinking of painting/plastidipping the chrome "beadlock" ring black. Not a big fan of chrome.

    Look at build!
    Damn you just troll around criticising all my post you ass, but ill have a ton of weight back there with the rear bumper and the fullsize spare and my shit ton of loaded tool boxes so i should be alright, its only $10 more for the expos so why not go ahead and get those plus ive grown to liking the rear rake a little bit.

    Id say to dip em too, not a huge fan of the chrome lip wheels on trucks.

    Thanks for the codes. I see they are listed at $100 each with free shipping. That seems like a pretty good price already. How much does that code knock off?

    Depends on how much you're spending. I keep this thread bookmarked though. I bet I've save over $500 over time just by using these:

    http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/deals-coupons/114960-coupon-codes-advance-auto-parts.html

    Edit: Forgot to mention some of those ^ codes don't work. So here's these too:

    OR
    What is your backspacing on the wheels? Do you have any rubbing with the 33x12.5? I went with 32x11.5 and my fronts come really close to my frame on my 3.75 BS wheels. I wanna go with 33x12.5 but I am just worried it'll hit the frame.

    No I didn't. The expos are stiff enough that they don't come close to the frame.

    They are 3.75" BS. And they rubbed the pinch weld, but nothing a little trimming/BFH couldn't fix. And frame rubbing all depends on your wheel backspacing.

    Very clean truck! Looks like it holds it's own and then some off road. Any plans to re-gear?
