    Hey All --
    After looking around at wheels for the past year, I came to the conclusion that the FN FX Pro was what I wanted to go with. However, for us OR guys, they only come in 17" and I'm not down with that.
    I spoke with Dustin at FN Wheels a week ago about the rumors of the FX Pro coming out in a 16x8. To make this happen, a certain volume is required to make production of these wheels a reality.

    Are any of you interested in that size? If we can get 50+ people to respond and request the FX Pro in 16", we can score these.

    Please make a little noise on this thread if you want some.

    16" kinda throws off the whole point of it being a TRD knock off.
    I'd be looking at other options if I needed a 16" wheel.
    Just my .02

    Curious how they would look. More concave or squished together

    I hear that. But at the same time, you wouldn't see them everywhere. Just haven't found a 16" wheel that I'm completely sold on

    So he would make a 16 inch version of the 4runner pro wheel not a wider version of the taco pro right? I think a taco pro 16 that had other color choices or flat black could be a seller too.

    Yes, exactly. I agree on the taco pro with additional colors. That bronze FN wheel color looks fantastic in person, and this is what started my quest for the FX Pro in a 16". However, I tend to get a little tunnel vision when I get my mind made up, so I'll keep looking around at wheels or consider that FX Pro in a 17".

    I’d like to see a 16” in this wheel too. The only reason I haven’t bought the current wheel is because they are 17. I like a little more sidewall so I what to stick with a 16 if possible.

    Just a heads up, but if you need 50 committed orders to get this done then you’ll want at least twice as many committed.

    Everyone wants in until payment is due.

    Yes. In flat black.

    This is the first 16" option that appeals to me. I've just stuck with the lame stock wheels since nothing else jumps out at me.

    Yes, in matte bronze. I'd buy them in a hot second!
