    I've been looking to get a set of new rims for my 2008 4wd regular cab Tacoma. It's been a bit confusing. Went on one website and typed in requested information and a quite a number of rims met the criteria. But I wanted to talk to a real live person to make certain of the fit. After talking to the "EXPERT". seems like almost none would fit for one reason or another. Possibly that particular website wasn't very good. So, I thought i'd try some local small shops and throw the business their way. That was a waste of time. I now have more questions than answers. Since this is the place to go for great advice I was wondering if someone could recommend an online site or, I'm in the Glen Burnie, Maryland area, a shop in the area with competent, knowledgable, staff.
    Thanks
    Jim

    Honestly, the best wheels for Toyotas are Toyota wheels. They are the strongest, lightest, and best quality. There are many that interchange, and you can often find nice ones cheap used.

    Take offs from a 3rd gen. Will freshen your look and have a perfect fit.

    Take offs are a good buy from the cool kids who have to have black wheels and aggressive looking tires......
