    Those wheels will go great on your pyrite. Just put the gray on my nautical blue. Improves the looks of this truck 100%

    I was never a huge fan of these wheels until I found a deal on CL with TPMS and snow tires mounted. Since then, they've really grown on me. I think I prefer the black or pyrite versions, but the bronzes are still pretty sweet and totally change the look of the truck. I'm running these as winters and probably eventually replace the stock sport wheels with some black XDs at some point in the future (I dig the StormTrooper look). I find the 16" ride softer than the stock 17"s, but higher sidewall and snow tires that's expected.
    I like how the TRD wheels offset too, so the tires are about an .5-1" wider stance. Definitely a bit more bad-ass feel in winter and also make the truck more unique to all the other stockers out there.

    How do you think bronze beadlocks would look on a Blue Ribbon Metallic DCSB?

    I love the style of those beadlocks and how they push the tires out a little more than my stock trd-offroad wheels just haven't decided on the color

    I'm installing mine tomorrow.

    I know the ring is installed after the tire is placed on the wheel.

    Question is..

    Is the ring installed after the tire is inflated...

    Or before the tire is inflated?

    You can leave the rings at home and put them on after

    Ok. Just didn't know if it was OK to have the tire inflated while putting the ring on

    Wouldn't you want to have the wheels balanced with them on?

    Yes. The tires should be mounted, rings installed, then balanced. I took mine to Toyota and negotiated the tires to the local discount price because I wasn't sure about the tire shop doing it properly.
