Just in the market of the TRD rims as well and tempted to go for the trd replica in amazon using cash back points. But I probably go for the OEM if I find good price. Is the FN pro x cheaper than the OEM TRD rims?

Ok.... every wheel discussed in this thread is made in Asia. Every one. The qualification comes down to the manufacturing process and final inspection.
Are they cast or forged?
Do they conduct stress tests?
What is the load rating per wheel?
Are the wheels put through an x-ray before leaving the plant?
Ask the seller about their insurance policy limit and warranty?
Guaranteed that the TRDP OEM wheels have passed all of tests.
Most aftermarket wheels are made overseas today. These are the questions you may want to ask of the vendors you are looking at.
I run Asian manufactured wheels on my vehicles. All of them. But I know all of them are from well known vendors which can answer the above questions.
