Several here PC'ed Sequioa rims. I decided to PC my 05 Sport rims. I also got 265/70/17 Nitto's. Here are the pics like I promised. Next mod is probably lifting it.

That looks awesome....I thought you had a silver sport like mine? Do you not have problems with the tires rubbing with those Nittos on a stock sport? Sometimes my wheels rub and I still have the stock wheels and tires! Did they just use regular paint for the centerpiece? If you dont mind me asking, how much did you end up having to pay. Thanks and sweet 4R:cool:
 
That looks awesome! How do those tires ride? I am installing an OME lift this weekend and am having trouble deciding which tires...

I'm stuck between the Nitto's and the Revo's, have they changed your MPG? Any road noise? How do they compare to the dunlops offroad?

I love the wheels

Nope I have a Black runner. The nitto's ride beautifully, no rubbing at all. They actually suggested and sold me an industrial spray paint that matched the rim. The rims were $40 each and spray paint was $5. The nitto's ran $136 at America's tire. With balancing,tax and lifetime warranty it came out to be $650

I like the tires so far. I didn't notice any noise increase. I've only have them for three days but I drove on the freeway for 3 hours yesterday and no noise issues.

I haven't taken them off road, but it handled the pouring rain yesterday extremely well. It was dumping tons and tons of rain.

Love the black on black look. Now go paint those roof rails black too. They just look out of place for me.

I know you're right...... but what about the bar and silver bumper trim?
 
Love It!!!

Love the look of those rims!!! I always play around with photoshop powdercoating my rims. Great looking truck... Really like the Loadwarrior too.
 
Looks good, i like those sport rims in black.

I used the industrial paint they gave me for the center caps and lugs. The center caps are holding up great but if you havent painted the lugs yet, i would recommend using a black primer. I used a gray primer and now that the tires have come on and off a few times the black is all f**ked up and i can see the gray. If it had been black it would not be nearly as noticable.

I think you need to get some black lug nuts but that's just my opinion.

No way, keep the lugs silver. It gives your vehicle a very machined look. They match your SE door emblem and roof rack. Too much black and you will look like Kip.
 
love it, it looks great! ive been wanting to powder coat my 04 sport rims for about a year now but havent done it, because of the trouble involved with having the wheels taken off to be done and having my truck outta service for while, how did you do this? was this a extra set?
