17 TRD PRO/SEMA Wheels

These are the 35/10.5/17 Kenda Klever, I trimmed front fenders and flares about 1/2”, aggressive cmc, smashed pinch weld and removed fender liner on the L side, kept it on the R for intake reasons. Running the OME 886 coils, SPC uppers with the HD Dakar pack in the rear. Wanting a re-gear but coming from 255/85/16s the transition wasn’t so bad and I can live with it for now.

 

What? Now I’m worried. I just pulled trigger on these rims and some KO2s. Someone please chime in and tell me everything is going to be ok.

 

Plenty of people are running KO2s on these wheels

 

I asked Discount Tire about this and they said it wouldn't be a problem. Just check with your installer.

 

How many different grey colors are there? Is there a “Matte Grey” and a “Gun Metal” grey?

 

Yes

 

Got it. There’s Matte Grey, Gun Metal Grey, Bronze, and Black?

 

Ok then, why come I can’t find a straight photo/ image showing each of the 4 different rim colors next to each other... to compare the colors?
How different is the MatteGrey from the Gun Metal Grey?
Also, I just read someone referring to a “Graphite” color as well.
What gives?
And what’s the difference between Sema, OEM, and Aftermarkets regarding these rims?

 

Call it matte and gloss

 

Sema is just a name, oem is the real thing, some places sell them as sema or 4Runner pro “style”. Usually means not oem.
FN pro, many people run those, for more options

 

Much obliged

 

Oh, sorry bud. I didn’t mean to be negative. That was probably too much information. You’ll be fine.
I wouldn’t give it a second thought if it were me. Honestly.

And with the different offset on these wheels it pushes the rubber out 3/4”. The wider stance is a nice look. I just put these on my truck with some Coopers.

 

Do you know why these were called SEMA wheels? Did they debut at SEMA?

 

I believe that is accurate

 

had anyone ran 35/11.5/17 trail grapplars on these wheels? I'm currently running 285-70-17 ridge grapplers with 0 rubbing. I'm trying tp figure out if i'll clear the uca and trying to avoid rubbing the frame, and I don't want to run spacers. I am aware however, that I will be doing a lot of other cutting. If I can't get this to work, I'll probably just run 285/75/17. Appreciate any input on this.

 

This morning was one of happiness and joy.




And then I found this:





I'm not sure if the tire would hide the indentation completely. Even if it did, the displaced metal has created a small ridge/bump on the outward facing surface that would still be visible.

There's not any damage to the box, so it seems to have happened prior to it being packaged by the manufacturer. Hopefully the retailer will replace it. Waiting to hear back now.

I have (or had I guess) an appointment scheduled to get them installed this Saturday.

 

Had the same damage on mine. Looked like it was where the handle on the box exposed it to the harm of the outside world. My replacement arrived in 48 hours..

 

I checked the box again to see if there was evidence of a breach around the handles, but didn't find anything obvious. Didn't see any corresponding marks on the plastic wrap or shower cap.

Where did you get your wheels if you don't mind me asking?

 

The tire won't hide that. You should seek a replacement while trying to barter for that one as your spare.
