    I know what you mean. My last car was a gen 4 Acura TL and that car had to have aftermarket wheels to look beautiful. A drop and nice looking after markets were essential.

    My new Tacoma on the other hand... I'm totally content with my OEM off road wheels and don't feel a need to change them. Toyota did a great job with these wheels.

    I will admit though that the right bronze wheels with the blue I have look very kickass.

    I like the offset and width; I like the spoke design also. Otherwise they are very busy wheels. Beadlocks, machined accents, lipped, chrome hardware on center cap, chrome badges. Modern wheels have a lot going on.

    I'm getting old. What do I know.
    To many people follow trends and then their trucks look like everyone else s.

    I have the FN Pros in matte bronze wheels... I love them. The offset is perfect.

    I will get more aggressive looking tires at some point, but I’m happy with the looks of the oem pro wheels.

    I'm a big fan of the Tacoma pro wheels. Their only downside is that they don't make KO2s in C rated for the 16 inch wheel. We should all bombard BFG customer service so they get so many requests they make them. They'd sell so many. I think they don't because all of the full size manufacturers are 17 and up.

    Do the rims get bigger if you black them out?

    First time I saw 3rd gen OR wheels I thought they were really good looking for a OEM wheel. I kept OEM wheels on my 1st gen so it like tradition now.

    1” 1-1/2” lift in front with OEM wheels with 1” wheels spacers all around I think would look really nice and is my plan.

    Their website doesn't seem to list them. Are they discontinued? I've been looking for that design in bronze. Might just have to buy in black and powder coat.

    True, but you never know, perhaps the Imaginary Toyota Offroad Racing Team guys really are telling the truth??

    Well......at least I bought the right wheels if I ever do go racing in my ‘TRD’ :D. I thought it was cool that they actually use the TRD sema 4Runner wheels on this race truck.

    They are not discontinued... they do not advertise their pro wheels on their site because they are in such high demand that they can't keep them in stock.

    Give Dustin (714)390-9387 a call if you would like to place an order or have any questions.
