Wheels Decision

Help me choose new wheels for my 2023 Lunar Rock TRD Off-road!
This is my daily driver and I want a nice set of wheels in bronze that look perfect on my tacoma, what option would you guys choose?

Truck:

Option 1: Rims: Method Bronze 703 16x8 | 6x5.5 | 0/4.50"
Tires: BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 - LT265/75R16/E 123R Tire



Option 2: Rims: Method Bronze 318 17x8.5 | 6x5.5 | 0/4.7"
Tires: BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 - LT265/75R17/E 123R Tire



Option 3: Rims: Genuine Toyota 2022 Tacoma Trail Edition Bronze 16" Wheel Set
Tires: BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 - LT265/75R16/E 123R Tire

 

Which one do you like? Get that one. But I say look for something different. There's a million tacomas with bronze/black wheels

 

What’s the weight of those KO2 e rated? IMO you don’t need e rated. I’m so done with e rated LOL. I’m on wild peak AT4w there great and weigh 45 lbs ran Death Valley and other trails no issues. Plus ride quality is great. That’s important to me

 

Have you seen any pictures of a Lunar Rock with bronze? Just wondering what they look like.

I also have a Lunar Rock with trd pro wheels (not these)

Honestly, I agree. I was torn between the two top tire brands for Tacoma's and it left me with KO2's Or Wildpeaks AT4W or AT3W since I dont know the difference BUT recently im leaning towards the wild peaks...

 

I honestly think you will like them. I went to 2 sets of geolander GOO3 MT’s. Ride quality has improved drastically of course.The Wildpeaks are smooth like butter. Wheels IMO 0 offset is a great choice

 

Go for the one that provide performance over looks(bead grip / bead lock) and if you’re doing 33” then go for 255/85r16 or 255/80r17

 

If your in tire sizes that offer a p rating it makes sense to go that route but with my next size I looked into at's and in a 285/75r17 the g003 is lighter than most AT's even compared to a c ply at4w. I was suprised by that one.

 

255’s are about 13 lbs heavier then a 265 per tire. OP KEEP THAT in mind. Ask me how I know.

 

Yeah the Wildpeaks were excellent on sharp ass rocks in Death Valley. Also consider I slashed a side wall on my Geo’s while my daughters boyfriend with stockers came out unscathed. Performance and ride quality is very important to me. That’s why I went with these tires plus for my use. Going back down to 265 is way better I drive my truck a lot.

 

If you're on the fence I'd recommend you go for the 17" wheels. You'll have more tire (and lighter) options for 265/285s.

If you're concerned in the slightest about acceleration speeds them a lighter tire is a big part of that puzzle on the answer.
