    Ok so after long thought and driving myself crazy over which rim to go with I finally just decided to try this mod first! Ordered it today and $49.80 later I should get it by next week! I ordered an extra one just in case but hope I'll have no problems with it with following the directions to the T! Any tips I should know about? :)

    TRD Off Road Wheels:
    After cutting, you will need the perfect backhand punch on the heel of the hand to pop them in. If they misalign, try again or you will risk breaking off a plastic tab. Like mentioned before, kind of a pain but looks great after.
    Much easier if you have the wheel off and lying flat on the ground to punch them in.

    Ok, tip noted thank you! We were planning on taking the wheels off to do it. You can pop the center cap off with the wheels on?

    Will the ring from the OEM caps fit on the TRD ones easily? Does it make it stay on better?

    The longer parts that slip around the lug nuts. Should be cut even with everything else. If you're putting them on the off-road wheels. Look at the pics in the first post compared to one that's not been cut. You'll see the difference.

    Ok cool, thanks, and yes, ill be putting them on the trd off road (sr5) wheel. Also, random question, do you think that changing to the trd center cap would mess with the wheel balance or nah lol?

    It will not affect the wheel balance at all.

    ^ this.

    It's in the center of the wheel. Which won't cause any changes in balance.

    Nothing crazy. I washed them with dish soap to get any and all grease off them first. I used touch-up paint on mine by laying down some paint in the groove and using the brush to drag the paint to the edges. A toothpick will come in handy to bring the paint to the more narrow portions. One thing that would be handy to have around is a plastic razor blade. You will have paint go higher than you would want on the edges and a plastic razor blade will be a big help in scraping it off once the paint dries.

    PITA is one way to put it....They "fit" but not very well. Something told me to get 5. Good thing. One decided to shatter when I gave it a hard shove.
