    The top ones. They look better because they are alloy and they add more value to a stock Tacoma...JMO.

    Alloys are lighter, so better for MPG. In an apocalypse though, you can beat a steel wheel back into shape if needed. Aluminum alloy, not so much.

    ^Nope, probably low-pressure cast. They are relatively light at just over 20 lbs each, though.

    Only forged Toyota 6-lug wheel I know of is the TRD 17" fake beadlock, about $350 ea.:

    These and the FJ wheels look the best. IMO

    17" sports? Ugh. I agree that the FJ 8-hole 17" rims are awesome though. :drool:
