    I found a deal on wheels I've been eyeing to use eventually when I lift. They are 17'' so I can run them now until I have enough $$ for my lift. Im just worried they may look goofy on stock height. Should I just wait till I'm ready to lift and keep my current stock set-up or should I run the aftermarkets. The wheels are 17'' Fuel Mavericks and I'm a Longbed superwhite TRD sport and would just be swapping the stock tires till I lift.

    nice!

    hey, what lug nuts and wheel locks (if any) did you go with? are there certain ones to get for the mavericks or can you use stock lug nuts?

    You should be able to run stock nuts if you have alloys already

    Stock
    With the wheels I bought I had to buy these weird star lug shapped ET lugs. The stock ones would not fit and were completely different.
