    Yeah I just realized the oem ones are about a hundred bucks cheaper per wheel.. Will probably go this route since I don't think ill need a very wide wheel..

    Thank you for this sir, I found a thread mentioning the OEM wheel weighs 24.8lbs

    Not sure how these would look with street tires on a lowered truck with a tan softopper. Starting to think black might look better. Thoughts/opinions?

    I’d rather get stung by a scorpion than a red wasp which feels like slamming your finger in a wooden garage door and locking it. :anonymous:

    You need some of these

    Carbon fiber rims.

    Only 3k each but they're half as light as an aluminum rim! Worth it.

    I vote black.

    Grey would damn sharp on your red truck.

    But I think also think anything other than stock will clash with the topper. Black would probably clash the least.

    Im thinking I will probably stick with what I've got until I need new tires, but I appreciate the offer buddy! Was considering some Tacoma limited wheels as well even though they're 18s.. I read somewhere that you can peel the chrome off of them and they're a nice looking silver alloy wheel below that.

    I agree, I think red would look the best, but would likely clash pretty bad with the tan topper.. :goingcrazy:
