lol. it’s creepy as hell.

 

Yes, yes it is.

 

Hey guys I'm lookin for some wheels for a wheel/tire package after I level my truck. I would like black with a silver (not chrome) beadlock look. Thoughts?

EDIT: Simulated beadlock. Don't need actual beadlocks. Not yet...

 

Are the trd bead locks silver or chrome? I can't tell in this pic.

 

more of a silver than chrome to me. they look good.

 

They're silver. Yeah they look great. Already checked with the Toyota dealer here. Have to have the VIN from a vehicle that came from the factory with them to order them from the dealer.

EDIT: And they're STUPID expensive.

 

really? WTF. the hole VIN thing is stupid and BS. you can’t get FJ wheels either.

maybe see if you can find some on a forum? that someone got new wheels and is selling those.

 

That's what I keep hearing. It's rediculous to pay over 1k just for a set of fake beads, not to mention the cash you have to drop to wrap those suckers in rubber...

 

Yeah, just found these on eBay, sounds like they're really lockers though, doesn't say Beadlock style/look/sim...?

look good. and no they are not real bead locks. toyota dose not put any true bead locks on any of the trucks or fj or anything. i know some state i’s illegal to run true beadlocks on the street. but it’s not illegal in TN.

 

If I'm right, the trd wheels are fake beadlocks, period. My guess is that the poster just didn't feel that it was nessessary to tell you that they are fake.

Edit: and if I read it right, there's only 3 of them...?

 

or is trying to sell them as real beadlocks.

 

I know the ones offered by Toyota aren't beads, but it sounds like these are replicas. I sent the seller 2 questions: If the price was for 1 wheel or 1 set of 4; and if they were true beadlocks or sims. I guess we'll see in a day or two.

 

well guys. off to bed for me. got to get up and weed eat around barn and fence in the AM before it gets to hot out. should be about 2 or 3 hours of works.

 

Later Zach

 

I FOUND THEM FOR UNDER $1K.
Also found A LOT of bronze wheels in the same style for slightly cheaper. Might look pretty sick on Indigo Ink. Now it's BLACK vs BRONZE. Thoughts?


Both of them are sims as we suspected, but I can always get them converted to true beadlockers later if I ever really need them...

 

Hey all.

anyone near Murfeesburo? Ill be going to school there this year. Would love to have a buddy to go wheeling with, and some one who has a garage i could tinker on the truck every now and then. Id be more then willing to help out with your own truck as well.

 

I'm a little over an hour north off 24, but I'm about to be moving to SC so...

 

I'm starting school at Tennessee tech this fall, which isn't too far from mtsu. I won't have a garage though...

 

Hey yall. I'm planning on debadging my Taco this weekend. Help me decide how to do it. Thanks..
