    i'm running OEM wheels for now. But you sir are very wrong. SCS F5/RAY10 wheels.. VOLK TE37 wheels... ENKEI RPT1s... these are names that shit all over OEM.

    Agree with OP. Finding a wheel that looks good on the truck, better quality than OEM ( and OEMs are decent quality wheels), not priced crazily and sized to your liking is hard. Never mind the bore size and stuff.
    But I have to disagree that TRD sport wheels look good on 3rd gen. IMO.

    In my opinion tire size comes in to play. OEM wheels look best with 265s. Not so with 285s.

    I'm on 265s and T4R pro wheels. If I went to 285s I'd probably get some SCS Ray10s in dark bronze.

    Na, I dont agree. I think oem wheels look ugly. Well not ugly but just meh. I bought SCS Wheels Stealth 6’s with -25 offset. In my opinion the wheels make the truck look so much better. I love how it sticks out from the fenders.

    I actually agree with OP. I spent two entire weeks after work looking at every wheel available that I could find online. This is a difficult truck to match wheels with. I found a lot of wheels that looked sick, but just wouldn't look right on the truck. I ended up with American Racing ATX195's and I love them. I originally planned on painting the fake beadlocks black, but one I had them they looked surprisingly good.

    Here they are mounted.

    And here is the -12mm offset paired with a 285

    Wow, love that! It seems like the majority of people on here prefer the flat, or matte look, but I think those look killer. Like a completely different wheel.

    Yeah, uh, Dude? I was agreeing with you. Raced plenty of stock limited two wheeled classes over the years to know the difference.

    Will most likely get poo'd on for this but the SCS ray 10s in bronze are cherry. But since they are so hard to get I went with the VTX rogues in bronze and I'll more than happy with them.

    Most aftermarket wheels look silly on our trucks. There are only a few exceptions. Even some of the OEM wheels look silly.

    Too much.
    That looks fantastic. What was the turn-around time on that?
