    I noticed that the TX Pro wheel has a black center and silver beadlock, while the TX Baja wheel has a gray center and silver beadlock. Is the color the only difference? Or do they have different backspacing, diameter, etc...?

    I believe I've seen pix of bronze centered wheels too. FJ perhaps? Can't recall where I saw them.

    Thanks.

    The Guardians are 16x8.5, -6mm offset, 4.5 backspacing. They also offer 17x8.5. They run about $125 per wheel at discount tire.

    I just got mine last weekend and love them!

    Not that it's functional, or all that important, but I wonder if the faux beadlock ring can be put on those wheels^. It almost looks like they're mark to be drilled and tapped already.

    I have the bronze ones, they are an aftermarket accessorie from toyota. The grey and black you need a VIN number to purchase or find them from an owner, ebay, etc.

    Please tell me these are NOT available black with silver lip because I'll be pissed off. I think I scouted them and they didn't when I was doing the wheel hunt. My requirement was black with polished lip. Now if I was going with bronze, those definitely would be up near top of list if not on top. Look good. I do love all those TRDs too, just so pricey for a set.

    I dont think they are available with a polished lip on black. If my memory serves me correctly they only come in solid colors.

    That is correct. Only black, bronze and chrome.

    Discout Tire Direct actually lowered their price on these rims. Only $110 each now! and if you buy on Ebay(before Sunday I believe) they will give you $100 Visa gift card and free shipping! Thats a super good deal and comes out to $85 per wheel!
