    I have 09 MGM DCLB TRD sport and can't decide between matte black or Graphite gunmetal. I have 5100's set at 1.75" to level and don't want to do too much trimming. I was thinking of 285/60/18 Nitto Terra Grapplers or Cooper Zeon LTZ's. Although 275/65 and 285/65 that I've seen here look really good too. Does anyone have any pics with these combos (not necessarily tires but truck color and wheels).

    Thank you Glenn! We were really happy with the way your truck came out. Those Toyo tires are really nice! They compliment the BFDs really well. :)

    I'm currently sold out, but I will have the wheels back in stock by 6/14. I sent you a PM with more info. :)

    I believe you'd be most happy with 275/65R18. This tire size looks really good with that lift, and only minimal to no modifications are required (usually just removing the mud flaps and a small nub from the fender liner - if at all). 285/60R18 is slightly shorter and a little wider. I think you'd like the look and the fitment better with 275/65R18.

    The Nitto Terra Grapplers are one of my favorite tires (I have them on my truck), and the Cooper Zeon LTZs are really good tires too (I have had the Coopers in the past), but I think the LTZ might not be available in 275/65R18. In which case, check out the Cooper AT3 which is very similar to the Nitto Terra Grappler. You might also like the Toyo AT-II as well. Those three are very similar tires.

    Here's a magnetic grey metallic Tacoma with the BFDs in graphite gunmetal:

    I believe I have some photos of MGM Tacomas with matte black BFDs too, so I'll do some digging and see what I can find for you.

    My personal preference would be the graphite wheels on an MGM Tacoma. :)

    Agreed! Very cool stickers. :)

    Anyone have any pics of these wheels on stock suspension with a 275/65-18?

    I have a 2013 Limited Double Cab with the factory 265/60-18 and am debating ordering these wheels and using my stock tires until the run out or buying new tires and letting my brand new trucks tires go to waste... I think the 275-65-18, even though only 1.5" bigger diameter, would look considerably better than the OEM Duelers.

    This is Dave's (S7ICKlVlAN on this forum) truck with 18x9" FN Wheels BFDs, 275/65R18 Goodyear Duratracs, and stock suspension in these photos (some of the photos we've posted of his truck are after he installed his lift, but these photos below are pre-lift):

    Thanks! Any idea what trimming, if any, was necessary with this setup?

    The black truck with the Toyo A/T II Extremes (two posts up, and then a few posts before that as well) has just a basic 2" - 2.5" shock mount spacer leveling kit and 285/65R18 tires. We only had to do very minor trimming on the fender liner and a small amount on the over fender.

    The white truck with bronze BFDs has stock suspension and 275/65R18 Goodyear Duratracs in the photos I posted just a couple of posts above. He did have to do some trimming on the front of the fender liner and the front and back of the front over fenders. Mud flaps also needed to be removed. The trimming required isn't major, and it's not noticeable from outside the truck.

    This is all with stock suspension and 275/65R18 tires. If you ever lift your truck even just a little bit (1.25" - 1.75") very little to no trimming is necessary with this tire size.

    I am looking at getting a 2" leveling kit, and want to know what size tires to get on my stock TRD Sport rims. Prerunner, SR5, TRD Sport DCSB. Thanks! :)

    That's awesome. I wish I could squeeze this combo on my setup but I think it might be too tight. What's the situation on your stock. You'll have matte black 06/14. What about graphite stock?
    BTW... Did you find any pics of MGM and blacks?

    Matte black and graphite gunmetal are back in stock as of today, 6/10. :)

    You can fit 285/65R18 A/T tires on your setup with some minor fender liner / over fender trimming + mud flap removal. PM / phone call sent to you. Thanks again! :)

    PM sent to you. :)

    Anyone have any exp with Kenda klever tires? I am kinda on a limited budget to get some tires before getting moved to Guam. The sales guy today introduced me to them. They look agressive enough and from what I've read have very little road noise.
