I think that if you do keep the taco ones, you should power coat them black

The Tacoma wheels still can't compare to the Limited's wheels IMO even if the Runner's wheel design is almost 7 years old now.

I like the LTD wheels the best...no contest.

You could always PC them black and beadlock them like calrox.

I really like the way your 4runner looks!

of those 2, the 4runner 5 stars look much better. but if you want to move up to a 16x8, get the lx or FZJ80 wheels, those look great.

X-AWDriver, Localmotion,
i agree with you both, i really do love the look of the LTD wheels, thats why i havent got new wheels yet, ive looked for months. I couldnt pass these up for the price (free) so now i can "see" them on "my" rig.
im still loving the LTD wheels

free is always good.

I would throw a set of MTs for wheeling only on the tacos and save the LTDs for street use. If i had the money, I would of kept my LTD wheels and have the FZJ80s. Cant wait till i get out of college and make money!

I clicked both because, honestly, they both look wuite good on your truck. I love the 'Runner wheels though. Also, I hate, and always have hated those stupid 5-spoke Taco/Tundra wheels (they just happen to look ok on your rig).

Beadlock the limited wheels and keep the Taco wheels for daily driving. Bruce TS beadlocked the limited wheels and they look awesome.

that is a good deal you got on the taco wheels.

you know me, i'm a sucker or the 4runner 5 spoke wheels, so yeah i'm gonna say those look best. they look dang good on your rig as is, and would look good in black too.

keep the boringer tacoma wheels for the street.
