    Looks wicked nice!! We should start a poll(like we don't have enough already, LOL) on how long b4 he decides he has to do something else. Mods are like porn, you are happy looking at what you have until the next one comes out, and you just have to upgrade.

    You spoke too soon... there's always something you will want to change/add :D Black or dark gray wheels would look AWESOME on your truck.

    Well I hate to say it, but it's either paint 'em black or probably nothing. You've got to remember that this is an SR5 only, no TRD rims came with it... just steelies (which HAD to go!). I talked my wife into the sport rims because they were a steal at only $200! They even came with some shitty tires I rolled on while I waited for my nittos in the mail.

    So just to recap since none of that made sense...

    I had a NEW truck with NEW tires. I then went to a 17" rim to get rid of the steelies, but the 17's came with crap rubber, so I couldn't put the stock rubber back on because they are 16" tires = new Nittos for me :)

    So if I asked for new rims just cause. I'd probably get slapped.

    Wellllll, if you keep going out to a flat tire every day or so... you must have run over something that bent the rim and "darn it honey, I can't find one to match" so you'll just HAVE to get new rims so they match.:D
