    I'm in the market for a set oh wheels. These really interest me. Wondering how gunmetal would look on my silver Tacoma. Do these include center caps?

    They come with basic plastic caps. TRD caps are extra.

    Call Dustin. I've had my bronze five stars for 18 months. All good over here after 20,000 miles.

    Hello fellow Five Star owners! I have a dilemma. When I installed my wheels 18 months ago, I opted to go with no center caps. I left them boxed up in my shop. I decided this week to do the TRD center cap mod and install the center caps that came with my Five Stars. I unboxed all four (which had been taped shut prior to shipping), and I did not find the small screws that attach the caps to the wheels. I emailed FN last night, but no reply yet. Here's my question to y'all: What size are the screws, and where might I find them? If you didn't install your center caps and have the screws laying around, would you be interested in passing them my way?

    I don't know the screw size, but how to you like the wheels? What color did you get? Could you post a pic of your truck? I also have a silver Tacoma, trying to decide on black or grey if I go with this rim. Thanks

    I got 16x8s, or "Deep Dish" as I call 'em. I paired with Cooper Adventurer AT at 265/75/16. They stick out a little farther than I would've hoped for, but it's fine. Initially I was looking at black, but the bronze were popping pretty hard. I saw a pic on the FN site that sold me on them. I don't regret it one bit.

    Yeah, that light grey does look good on a silver Tacoma. Nice truck! I like how you painted right under the lower grill, I have had that on my todo list since I bought my truck last month. Was thinking black or dark grey, depends on the grill I install.

    Well, it's between light grey 5 star or the SCS F5 in matte grey. Time is on my side though.

    Thanks for posting your truck. She's a beauty.

    Perhaps I mis-communicated. The thing the TRD cap pops into- that is the thing that must be affixed to the wheel with three small screws with a hex head. See the tiny little holes within the stud holes closer to the center?

    So you just popped them right into the wheel itself?
