    I have a 1997 tacoma 4wd with the manual locking hubs. I bought a set of new toyota 4runner rims and put on the truck. What I'm looking for is an idea or if someone has made some aftermarket center caps to fit the front. The original center caps will not work because the rims are not the same

    Did you get the caps for the new wheels? If so get a hole saw and cut them out.

    Do you need a center cap at all? I’m running 2017 TRD OR 16” wheels and there’s no issue.

    Surprise, you can’t tint the front. At least past whatever the factory tint is. Haha.

    Looks fine without center caps IMO.
