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 [MENTION=9139]steezemcqueen[/MENTION] and [MENTION=21950]sn0wrunner[/MENTION] '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.

Wut? I don't have bronze wheels, sure wish I did though!

Looking good dude.
 
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.

no spacers, they're actually nearly flush but I'll get some pics from the front/back looking down the truck taken in the morning and posted tmrw so you can see.

one other pic in my "build" thread with a different angle here
