    Put these on today. ATX Mojave black teflon. We worked with the centers, but we could not get them to work. they had some crome centers that would work, bit i want to stick with black...if i can. so we just painted the rear hub and i'm gonna let it ride for a couple days until my tire shop can get another center in. prolly won't look right though. i may just leave it like this. i'm gonna also gonna have to do a little trimming on the drivers wheel well.:rolleyes: tell me what you guys think.

    Looks good!!!;) I also have ATX black Thugs on my 2006 Tacoma and my center caps didnt fit as well.:cool: Give it some time, the cap-less look will grown on you.:D I like mine a lot better now without the caps because I have seen a couple Tacomas with the center caps on and they stick out to far.:eek: You also might want to look at getting some black lug nuts. Makes it look a lot cleaner!!;)

    Thanks guys!!! I'm pretty stoked by the way they look also.:D Now i just need to try to get the rubbing stopped. do any of you guys rub in this area? It only rubs on the drivers side. I could trim the plastic just above the mud flap, but it's rubbing the mud flap to. i talked to a guy today that is running the exact wheel and tire size, and he trimmed the plastic inner wheel well and took his mud flaps off. he says it still rubs a little every now and then, but it's not that bad. i think the 1st Gen's look awesome without the mudflaps, but i really don't want to give up the paint protection they give me.

    Paint your flares black and the contrast will be amazing!
