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.

I got mine at 4WP and I have spent over 4 grand with them and have never had a complaint about them, they're great!

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.
