    Hey guys,

    I've finally gone ahead and ordered my truck, should be in at the dealer on Friday. 2014 Double Cab, 4x4 TRD Off-road in MGM. I'm really looking forward to it.

    Anyway, onto my question. For the life of me I can't figure out why Toyota makes it so hard to get TRD aftermarket parts. I'm already aware the Baja suspension is currently on 'Stop Sale' status so I'll patiently wait for that to come back available. Now onto the wheels. I really want a set of the Grey Baja TRD bead-lock style wheels, but seeing as you apparently have to have a direct genetic lineage to Mr. Toyoda himself to get those, I'd like to buy the black ones. Turns out after placing some phone calls, those are currently unavailable as well. They will only sell if your vehicle was originally equipped, and then you can only get one at a time, so they say.

    I know a few members have had some luck ordering the grey baja wheels, as well as the black ones. I know I can order the Bronze ones, and repaint, plasti-dip, or powder coat them, but I don't want to go through all that. Does anyone have a resource or know where I can get those in either grey or black? Thanks!!

    This sums up my current feelings about the whole thing

    i would just start calling dealerships and check if they have it in stock that way they dont have to order it. its either that or become friends with someone who has a TRD Baja and borrow their VIN

    I think even with a friend with a Baja, it's a one at a time deal. They're pretty ridiculous.

    I got my beadlocks through TRDParts4U and ShopTRD, but I believe both of those channels have been exhausted sadly.

    There was a set of gray beadlocks in the classifieds for cheap money with 285s. If I wasn't so tapped for cash at the moment, I'd pick them up to just swap over my black ones.

    if your talking about loadedtaco's grey ones then yeah they've sold lol. buying the bronze one and PC'ing it doesnt seem that bad of an idea. the local dealer has a set in stock. hell if they still have them in a few months i might pick them up as a spare set
