FN Wheels Five Star Matte Bronze 16"

Ordered a set of four (4) Five Star Wheels from Dustin at FN Wheels last Wednesday afternoon (2/20) and they were delivered three days later on Sat via FedEx. Quick trip to Goodyear for the tires and they were on.

I had originally planned on the Countersteer Type X 17"s (thanks DarkSide) but after doing some research and talking to a few ppl, decided for my purposes the 32" on 16" combo was more practical.

Dustin was great to work with and I'm really happy with the product - excellent quality and digging the style/color. And the price point was unbeatable compared to others' I had looked into.

A few pics below, as well as a bit more detail in my mod/cost thread here.

yanno...when I saw the bronze wheels on @steezemcqueen and @sn0wrunner 's trucks I thought to myself, "it's too bad my truck is silver and it can't pull off bronze wheels"...but I guess I was wrong

Was it ever brought up if these will clear the Tundra Brakes(13WL's)? I really like these wheels and will be needing new ones "soon"ish....

yes - I asked FN Wheels about this as I'll eventually be upgrading to the huge Tundra pads ('05 and on) and was assured that these will clear.

I owe DarkSideGTI for this, was planning on matte black until I saw his. so mine's basically a poor man's version of DarkSideGTI's. And Jaystoy as well - it was helpful to see this size and style of wheel on 32's.

Awesome. I figured as much with being ET-25. I know its tight/requires some fitting with the stock trispokes at they are ET15 so the extra 1.5+in of clearance for them with ET-25 I wasnt too concerned but wanted to verify since they are already on my truck.

Do you have wheel spacers? Have any shots from the front or back, looking down the truck?

Looks great, but may stick out just a tad too far for my tastes.
