    I understand your concerns, but I'm telling you from my own personal experience with this ebay seller less than 24 hours ago that I was charged 100 bucks to ship all 5 wheels. Simon's Mom just got a set 5 minutes ago and payed 80 bucks for shipping.

    Seller states that the listed shipping cost will be the MAXIMUM cost, even if actual shipping costs are higher. Seller also states that if shipping costs are less, the difference will be refunded.

    Bottom line is max $80-some dollars for shipping. If you're closer to CA you may get a refund on some of the shipping.

    "Freight is difficult to accurately estimate due this listing's large, multiple item nature. They will be packaged as two items and eBay's shipping calculator does not always properly figure freight in these situations. I can tell you this: if the actual freight is higher than the amount eBay calculates you will not be asked for more money. Also, if the actual freight is significantly lower than eBay figures (happens most often when delivered closer to the shipper) I will refund the difference. Please email me with you ZIP code for an accurate quote! "

    That is correct. UPS is big on that. The farther away you are, or your "zone" is, the more expensive the shipping. So you west coasters can save even more coin.

    The other thing you can do is have them shipped to your place of work, as delivery to a commercial address will always be a little less than to a residence (your house). It's easier/faster for the UPS delivery guy so they cut you a deal. Not alot mind you, but on something like this you might be able to save about 10 bucks.....which you can then mail to be for all of my awesome money saving advice. (Minus the cut for the Bing Search engine owner...;) )

    Just pulled the trigger on a set for $500. Does anyone have any concerns about the offset difference between these and the trd wheels or the compatibility of the trd wheel tpms? i don't expect clearance issues, but wondered about the offset relative to suspension loading and subsequent tire wear.
    although i am not a huge fan of the blacked out look, i am anticipating that these will enhance the appearance of my bsp ac.

    I had the shop that installed the rims swap the TPMS sensors from my 16" Off-Road rims to the TRD rims. They did break one of the sensors when they did the swap, but replaced it. It then had to go to a Toyota dealer to have the sensors re-initialized (at no cost to me).

    I haven't had any problems with them, but I did install these after the Toytec 3" lift;

    Your truck looks great, is this the one you might trade-in or get a buy back?
    If so I hope you get an equally nice setup, that truck is sharp!

    Thanks :) I was pretty happy with the way it turned out too. Unfortunately it looks like stock again, except for the wheels. This is the truck that I'm currently de-modding so that I can turn it back in. I'm keeping all the parts so that it will look like this again when I get a replacement.

    I really like the gun metal FJ TRD wheels and want to buy a set but am wondering how they would look on a stock Magnetic Gray double cab. I have no intentions on lifting or putting larger tires on it as it is my daily driver. Anyone have any photos of one?

    Thanks for keeping us posted that is great news for you! :thumbsup:
    I emailed scott to see where my rims are since I didn't get any shipping info :confused:
    He emailed me back saying something about next week and how he gets his parts isn't the same as before blah blah blah
    I'm not in a hurry since winter is here and these are going to be my summer wheels. Its still a good deal even with the wait.

    +1 on the shippng delay. I got the same email. It seems they're coming in by truck now and the shipping is taking longer to get to them. Hopefully they'll ship monday of next week.

    Here's the email I got from Scott:

    For whatever reason the factory is truck shipping (TNT) my rims to me instead of the standard method so all of my normal orders were delayed a few days. I went ahead and double ordered everything in a different manor which has expedited them and was told my orders will begin arriving on Friday or Monday. Always hard to figure what the factory does and then when a call is made they don’t even know why they did it. Nonetheless, your order should ship soon and UPS will email your tracking directly

    Is the 10% on top of state tax or is the 10% the entire sales tax? Are you close to anyone in NV or something like that to deliver to?

    I just swapped the stock 265/70R16 BFGs onto them.
