    I like aftermarket, but the if I had to choose stock wheels I'd stick to Sport wheels.

    I like the FJ wheels, but far too many people have them these days. I voted aftermarket.

    Stock for now
    I have both tacoma oem 16" steelies & TRD alloys cuz I live in the snow belt & run a winter set.
    You won't have to worry bout that thou unless global warming really goes bonkers ;)
    For the poll, my vote is steelies. Paint em Black!
    I did buy a set of the anthracite FJs but sold them on CL fwiw.

    Aftermarket is the way to go. Taco's look fantastic with a little bit of a dish and some increased backspacing. You just can't get that with any of the Toyota rims

    huntark03 Ebay all the time! Here is a set of 4 for $486.00 free shipping. Ebay Item # 350315908425
    Here's a link, not sure if it will work. If not just go to ebay and put in Eagle 185 then sort through them all til you find the ones you want for your truck. NOTE: This set comes with center cap & lug nuts. Watch out if you use a different auction as some ebay wheels do not come with the lug nuts or center caps.

    Finally got my wheels in to go with my Duratracs. Should have them on tomorrow. Hated the chrome center caps so I painted them flat black to match the wheel color. Konig Countersteer offroads.

    jtav2002 Those look like nice wheels! Post a photo of them on the Tacoma after you have them mounted. You might want to remind whoever puts them on, that you have the TPMS sensors in the rims and not to mess them up.
