    Hey all, just picked up an 04 Tacoma last month.
    Pretty much wanted a Tacoma as long as I can remember, awesome truck so far.


    Anywho - it'll need tires sooner than later and I've been toying with the idea of picking up a set of wheels as well.
    I've been looking at the KMC enduros - I dig em, and always thought I'd want dark/black wheels, but the more I look at trucks my color (lunar mist I think?), I think a brushed aluminum would look good.

    I'm currently running Bridgestone duellers 265/70/16's - I wouldn't mind going up maybe a tire size. Looking at the Nitto Terra Grappler's.
    I'd like to stick with a 16" wheel, probably 16x8.

    Any suggestions? Pics are a big help. I've found a lot of pics, but truthfully am not that familiar with truck tire/wheel sizes - so if they arent listed, I have no idea what I'm looking at :confused:


    Thanks in advance..
    And an obligatory pic

    I don't really like the centercap - any other wheels like this (they also don't come in 17")?

    Nothing wrong with the wheels you have, they look good on a silver Taco.
    Just put some more rubber on them. At least 265/75/16s.
    Mine with 255/85/16 BFG KM2s (33.3")
