The big black uglies (rims)

Where do you find these bad boys? I see them all over the place and I must say, I love them. So where is a good place to look for them?

Take a look at the Wheelers Black Alloys. Less unsprung weight is a good thing.

Call Kyle at 4wheelparts at the Charlotte, NC store. Not the 1-800 number but the # for the store in Charlotte, NC. Kyle is a Toyota 4x4 enthusiast and knows his stuff. He'll set you up right...I've gotten numerous things from him and it was always right and fast.

As you are IN NC, perhaps close to Charlotte, just go by, or call Kyle @ 704-525-2224.

Do you have to do a wheel alignment after you installed these or what? Mines seems to cause the foot pedals and steering wheel (when braking) to vibrate more than the stockers.
