Info on these TRD wheels

Just FYI I polished mine up with McGuire's a mag and aluminum polish and they turned out really well. I finished them off with plastic/vinyl reconditioning.

The paint is beyond reconditioning for the Trd. It looks faded/chipped. I was just curious if any other members have had the same issue. They are only a year old

dont need a lift?

I bought the OEM TRD Pro wheels. After researching the FNs and a few other aftermarket options, I decided to stick with the 7" wide TRD fleet wheels.

FWIW I also went with BFG KO2's in 285 70 17. I've seen plenty of other T4Rs with the TRD 7" wide wheels and 285s. I don't foresee any issues. Although could be a factor in extreme air-down conditions. Not too worried.

Got my set of 4 TRD Wheels on eBay shipped for just under $800

2016 2015 Toyota 4 Runner 17" TRD Matte Black 6 Spoke Alloy Wheels New | eBay

Found the BFG 285 KO2s currently on sale at Sears for $204/tire (a steal)

Looking to start a build thread soon. Stay tuned!

I thought you couldn't run 285's w/o some type of lift?
 
Yea I was really disappointed when I saw that yesterday. I was getting my lift put on and decided to clean the inside of my rims really good and saw the red TRD paint was garbage. I contacted the dealership and they told me the next time I bring it in for an oil change they will look at them so they can verify the issue to order new ones under warranty.

Did you spray them with wheel cleaner? That's what it looks like to me. That stuff is nasty and does more damage than good.

I only use citrus based cleaner like what you get at Home Depot. It cleans great and is totally saFE.

For the last couple years I have only used Simple Green on all of my wheels and it works great.
 
I wash them with typical car wash soap and I used simple green for the first time the other day. No extreme chemicals or anything.

Dustin was awesome to work with (despite my ODC), after several emails and a couple of phone calls, we were able to work out the details. Thanks for the patients Dustin, and for hooking me up!

If all goes as planned, should be ready to ship 6/3, fingers crossed. Hope Murphy doesn't visit................if I didn't have sh!t luck, I wouldn't have any luck at all.

i find even Simple Green is too sketchy to use on wheels. this Griot's Garage wheel cleaner is fantastic; cleans throughly with light brushing and totally biodegradable.

any wheel cleaner claiming "no brushing required" is almost certainly a nasty ass chemical cocktail that's bad for you, the planet, and probably your wheels.
 
love all the t4r wheel pr0n in this thread.

DEFINITELY Helped me get an idea of what I want to do... :) oh the mischief. Black on white ftw.
 
Having a hard time deciding between the black and gunmetal TRD wheels on a Magnetic Grey 2015 4runner. Does anyone have a side by side comparison? or at least an image of the gunmetal on grey option?

Thanks!

I'd second this. I'm also very interested in this.
