TRD beadlock wheels are still in production, new part number

Thanks for asking.

We don't make anything like that at the moment, but what year is your Tundra?

The 17" TRD OEM Rock Warrior wheels that passed through my hands in the past were all engraved "Made in Taiwan" on the backside of the wheels with boxes that said "Made in USA." I think that the rings were assembled to the wheels in the U.S., and then the whole assembly was re-boxed as made in USA, but that part is just my best guess. The wheels definitely said made in Taiwan, and I didn't see any of the usual hallmarks of BBS wheels.

I completely agree with your made in Taiwan comment too. A lot of really great wheels (and other products too) are made in Taiwan. In fact, most of our wheels are made in Taiwan.

No problem at all! If I can ever help with anything just give me a call.

I'll try to leave this thread be for now as well. I don't want to take it too far off topic for those of you who are looking to discuss the 16" OEM TRD wheels, but if I can be of any help with respect to answering questions about our wheels (FN Wheels), the TRD wheels or any other wheels I will try to chime in.

 

2021. The 2022+ makes a TRD 20", but it's a different lug pattern

 

I'm not sure about exact measurements, but specifically the Stoptech kit from sos performance. (340mm rotors and ST60 calipers) Would these clear?

Right under my nose, really, right under me in my crawl space is my 5th Rock Warrior wheel.

 

I absolutely love the TRD beadlocks! I went with FN Overlander non beadlock since I switched to a GX 470. I love that wheel too just wish it was a brighter gray like the TRD wheels. The cost to professionally repaint them was $600 and thought that was too much.
I've heard you can lightly shave the front GX calipers to make a 16" fit, but I find that a little iffy.

This is the first look I’ve had at these new production wheels. look like different center caps.

 

I’m most likely going to go the FN overlander route too!

 

New center caps are kinda fugly. That's too bad. I suppose one source an old set.

 

I agree. The wheels look cheaply made imo

 

Looks like these TACO ALLOY wheels may be the cheapest Toyota-USA-made wheel ever!

 

Based on what? Just curious because I'm debating getting a set when they're back in stock.

 

Per his imo.

Toyota signed off on a USA manufacturing company to make the TACO ALLOY for them and you can bet they are not going to be "cheaply made".

 

Yeah exactly. Just put imo for a reason. If it’s an OEM part like you said, it will be quality. I just have this feeling the original Trd beadlocks are still the ones people should be after

 

Based on nothing but my opinion. Sorry to put doubt in your mind. Go for them if you want them!

 

@RobTacoma22 - want to update the 1st post with all of the part numbers?

 

OE Toyota caps have part numbers, date codes, etc embossed on the backside. Those eBay caps don't have any embossment on the back side and are not Toyota, per the auction;
"4x TRD Center Caps (new custom made to replicate original style)"

 

Oh I missed that! Sorry I may have stirred the pot. Good find! If anyone else gets the new production wheels in and can take pictures please do!

 

You stirred the pots saying they looked cheaply made and you are correct about the center caps!

 

@eurowner are you contemplating a set for yourself at all? Or just into these and monitoring things?

I have one set in grey w a black for spare, mildly tempted to get a 2nd spare but if it's not a good match then that sorta blows up that plan. And it's maybe nice to know which wheel is the spare anyway if I don't do 5 tire rotation (I age out before wearing out so 5 is more costly).

 

I have a graphite set of 5 and a single black I bought a few years back and now can't afford them anymore!
I hope I am helping.....
