    ok guy and gals. I'm looking to put a new set of rims on my truck but cant decide which ones. I am putting a 2.5-3 in lift on. I'm looking at DC 2 rims or the SCS SR8. Never really been much on black wheels but these caught my attention. Will be going on a 2015 pyrite mica TRD OR 4X4 DCSB. Just want opinions on what yall think look best. Thanks.

    Forgot to mention going to stay with the 16 inch rim.

    I'm partial to black wheels so the SR8's get my vote, but it's all about what you like so there really is no wrong answer. It's your truck, rock whatever wheels look best to you.

    I think the sr8s in black would look sweet on Pyrite Mica, rugged look, just my taste.

    I like the DC2s. I personally feel black wheels are like the cragar craze back in the 70s

    The SR8's are made specifically for Toyota trucks, they have a 106.1 mm bore, which means like stock wheels, they are hub centric, and are pretty damn light. IIRC, the 16's are 22 lbs, and the 17's are 24 lbs.

    IMO the SR8's in matte gunmetal would look smokin' on your ride.

    There are better wheel options out there.

    I like the SR8's and I think they will hold up better than the DC's too.

    Sr8's look much better and i sugest you go at least one size up to a 17" wheel since ,apparently smaller wheels have interfierence or rub on aftermarket spindles if you do or already have a lift kit that requieres taller spindles....NOTE.is just something i been reading on several threads,not sure why or how! Either way i hope you are happy with any choice you make
