    I just the same wheels in bronze for my pyrite mica. Where did you get the TRD inserts for the center of the wheel?

    Those are just stickers on the center caps. They are included with the wheels. Not crazy about them TBH... I'll probably come up with something different.

    How are these wheels holding up for you guys? My Mickey Thomsons are peeling and to refinish them will basically run the same cost as these rims. But I wouldn't have any downtime if I just got these. Curious how the finish and overall durability is treating everyone. I love the light weight of them, making them an attractive option.

    Not enough bandwidth on the internet to list.
    I soon became quite unimpressed. I'd suggest you save some money and get something better. The finish became pretty dinjy in a short period of time and I took impeccable care of them starting off with ceramic finish before they were even mounted. I shit-canned all 5 after less than a year and bought some nice KMC wheels to pair with the same tires. The load rating was terrible and just like one of the previous posters, I bought a new travel trailer and put the new wheels on immediately.

    I never discussed my initial experience with these but 2 out of 4 came to me with shit finishes. I was in the wheel business in a previous life and these would have been considered "blems" in the industry. In their defense, they shipped me 2 new wheels immediately. When I bought the 5th for my spare, it too was a shit finish and had pimples if rubbed would peel off finish and yield bare aluminum. Clearly I got what I paid for!

    KMC and Method are two highly recommended brands by many forum members. @GrizzledBastard how are your KMC's holding up?
