Who Makes The 16x8 TRD Ivan Stewart Wheels?

Hey,

I was wondering, who makes the 16x8 TRD Ivan Stewart wheels, I know someone here posted the name and model but I can't seem to find while using the search feature. Any inputs would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Freddy

TRD doesn't make ANYTHING. Maybe Enkei? Why? I'd be surprised if it's not an exclusive licensing agreement, so you're probably not going to be able to get them anywhere else.

Hey,

I've been good Bob, unfortunately I can't say the same thing about the Taco...hit a hyropole.

I haven't posted here for a LONG time...been so busy with work mainly. Yotatech is getting bigger and bigger every time I visit when I have the chance to.

BTW, I found who makes the wheels, they are the Niche Throttle wheels.

IIRC, They are Niche Throttles.

**edit**

Don't ask me why I remember the most random things. Never even liked them, but can't seem to forget them.

I love those wheels. I'm selling my Runner and Taco, got dibs on a '06 TRD Sport Taco dub cab in Speedway Blue. Looks like Niche makes 'em in 17 18 and 20 inch sizes too. 16" (TRD) looks too small on the bigger sized Taco, hope I can afford some rims for the new kid.

yeah, I was never crazy about the wheels either, and the fact that they were way over-priced because of the TRD name doesnt help either.

What did they cost straight from the manufacturer? They have a crazy retail price of $350 IIRC.
