    Check the wheels and tires subforum here or Craigslist in your area and just spray paint them black. Cheap and effective

    What is cheap to you? Plastidip also works good.

    Just Plastidip your current ones, or use Duplicolor wheel paint (what I used). Plastidip works well but it can come off easily when it's on the wheels. On the plus side, it's cheap and easy to touch up or you can just peel it off if you decide you don't like it.

    What do you think? I want to paint them cause black would look good with the tan. Only thing about plasti dip is yes comes off easy will be going through mud here an there an don't want it to look like shit

    I'd just buy some wheel paint then, like the Duplicolor brand that I used. You can get it at any autoparts store. Can't go wrong with black wheels, I think they look good on any Tacoma. Mine has chipped/flaked off a bit in some spots, but I off-road regularly and pretty hard at times so it's inevitable. Easy to touch up.
