    I hear of complex wheel stuff I don't want or need to learn or understand like back spacing, offset, about the width, lug centric and hub centric, etc, etc, etc.

    I just want a suggestion for a cheap black wheel for the 2008 Toyota Tacoma TRD Prerunner that will just fit in and have no issues. Steel or alloy.

    Staying stock tire size.

    I'd appreciate a suggestion for the brand and model.

    They have alloys available too. The alloys are made by Procomp. The only catch is shipping. I emailed them about shipping to western PA and the estimate was $109 for wheels, lug nuts, and center caps.

    yeah but at $60-$70 a wheel or whatever it is, its worth it IMO.

    I bought a set with tires off craigslist, already painted, I'm happy. They were from Toyota so said the original owner. :D

    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    that be me....the paint on mine held up perfect until i got the new tires put on...so i've got to fix em back up....then w/ the new black lugs on there, the stock ones have a wide base, so they scratched the inside up more than the new ones will cover....so i'm taking them all back off and redoing them. and i'll try adding a few coats of clear this time and see how they look
