    Hello folks... new here to the forum and just picked up a 2009 Tacoma that has stock wheels. Wondering what you guys might share as far as info on the best wheel for on and off road travel?
    Looking for something nice and visually appealing as I will be on the road mostly.
    Thanks for your comments in advance.

    These wheels are great but are on national back order, as are most of Pro Comps black alloy wheels.

    If you search some people have found them on random sites, but a lot of vendors have gone as far as to stop carrying them because of the issues that Pro Comp has had with delivering these.

    I have a st of Pro Comp Series 52 Steel wheels sitting in the boxes in my dining room waiting for spacers so that I don't rub on my brake calipers, they are simple and cheap but I like the look of them.

    Buy some forged wheels. Stronger and lighter than the cast wheels most people run, and definitely lighter than steel wheels. better gas millage and more functional. And get Chrome or hi polish, cause when a chick looks at your car it speaks to her unconscious and she thinks "shiny." black wheels dont speak to a female she just thinks douch with a truck.. seriously. so if you like to bang girls.

    Buy forged chrome or hi polish. You're welcome.

    Centerline forged wheels makes wheels for our trucks. that's where Im buying mine.
