    I have a silver 2015 tacoma and want some black rims, currently i have the stamped stock ones. I dont want to be delusional but id like to keep the price per rim at around 100$. I don't need super fancy rims i really just want some black ones that are at least somewhat more interesting than the steel ones. Im not a big fan of the thin spoke ones. I found ones that look like the 4runner trd pro ones but arent, however they are 180 per.

    If that's the price you are staying at, look for used wheels on FB marketplace, Craigslist, or a junkyard.

    How many lug nuts are on the wheels that are on your truck? 5 or 6 per wheel? That makes a difference too so pay attention.

    A wheel is not a rim.

    A wheel, let alone a good one, is not $100.

    If you want black for cheap, paint yours black.

    Where are you located? Currently buying new wheels and will let my current black rims go for cheap.

    Spray paint is a budget solution.

    Doesn't solve the 'shape' of the wheel, and it does take a fair amount of prep work, but can come out quite nice.

    Do all 4 for 1/2 your budget for one new one.

    Consider something other than black. When the OEs produce them in abundance you know it's overplayed.

    Don’t forget you might need to change lug nuts if going from steel wheels to any sort of alloy. The lug seating face is different between the two types of wheel.

    That’s a tough ask.
    They could have least used a picture of a steel wheel.
