    I noticed there are Toyota OEM Trail Team wheels on Ebay again for $620 again. I regretted not buying them the last time they were that price. My question is which color would you buy for a Silver truck? Keep in mind that my Taco is a base model with Black flares. I had always thought Black, but am now thinking Silver wheels because what with the flares and all the trim being Black it just seems like too much Black. On a side note my OME lift was delivered today.:bananadance:
    Sorry for the crappy pic.

    Black with Bronze coming in a close second.

    I'm a bit biased with black though.

    My stock TPMS did not work in the 16" OR wheels, but you can have them band clamped to the inside of the rim. Any tire shop should be able to do this.

    10 4. Thanks, Craig.

    I think that silver and black will look good. Especially with all the black on our RC's.

    Black wheels seem to "disappear" - especially on light color trucks.

    I'm not a fan, but it's your truck so do what makes you happy.

    Negative. You will need to buy OEM sensors for alloy wheels.

    Buy black wheels...must have more black

    With the wheel you want, I'd say silver would look better. FYI I paid 640 for my methods, make sure you explore all your options.
