wheels
 
as waskillywabbit said, maybe some photoshop guys could do that, so we could see.

Aren't there websites that will automatically do this for you? You choose your vehicle and they put in the wheel...

I thought DTC had one of these.
Guess I was wrong.

Oh forget it... those pictures are terrible!

They look kind of like the black-pearlish xterra wheels. Which is good. But I think the blackish color would be cooler.

Here's a couple quick Photoshop jobs I did. The first is a 2nd gen I'm buying in couple weeks from Rockota. Had the pic so I used it.

And this one I found in the member photo section. Screen name was "Rich" I believe.

I like 'em for a 3rd gen better.

I think they'd look great coated in that gun kote stuff.

Nice Wheels Dr Z!!!! :bigok:

I didn't see that model when I looked for mine. I ended up getting the "252" model.

These have a gun metal gray powdercoat inside the cutouts and are clearcoated.

They will balance much better than the stock Toyota rims. Plus they are lighter.

Also have them put on smaller center hubs than the ones that come with the wheels. When they mounted mine they pulled out several different kinds and let me choose.

I saw one of these wheels in my buddy's shop and those pictures don't do them justice. Or, the picture gives you the wrong idea. When I first saw the pic I thought of the Xterra wheels, but they don't look like them hardly at all in real life. They are really deep and sink down quite a bit into the wheel. I can go take some pics for you if you really are interested in the wheels. I just don't want you to get them and be like whaaat? :)

I like the wheels if you're going for that look. I wish I could start over and do my rig in all black, but that would cost too much right now. But the wheels are cool. :rockon:

how are these performing?
 
dr.z did you buy these wheels? i hope you can let us know how they perform, are the wheels balancing ok? i'm looking into a set of similar MB motoring wheels of different style. getting tired of wheels that do not balance or people who can not balance them :)

thanks!

I realize this thread is old, but I would love to see pics if anybody has these on their 4Runner or tacoma. This past weekend, I put a set on my jeep with 35" MTRs and they are the nicest wheel I have owned. I bought them based on pics, and they looked nice, when they showed up I was really impressed by how much nicer they look in person. By the time I got my 35" MTRs on, I was ready to buy a set of these for my 01 4Runner and did some searching and found this thread.
