Keep my TRD Wheels or go back to stocks?

[spoiler900]

Hey guys,
I have a 99 Limited 4X4 with 250,000 on the clock. About 2 years ago I wanted rims and picked up these rims off craigslist for a steal. The tires were the stock BFG rugged trail 265/70/16 (same as my stock wheel) and the tires were brand new, oh and I only paid $700 for the set! I loved the look of my stock 5-spokes. Whats your guys opinion on putting my stock wheels back on and plasti-dipping them black so I still have black wheels. I would take the tires off these TRD wheels since I love them and are still close to new and swap them onto my stock wheels. I could then sell these TRD rims alone with no tires for easily $700 (maybe more?) so I would have pretty much gotten 4 free tires after all is said and done. So, do these rims raise the worth of my vehicle or make it look that much better or is it the same thing as long as I have black wheels on. I also plasti-dipped the lip black which I like better, but its totally removable. Opinion to sell these rims or keep them?

The stock wheels look better IMO. I have always liked the stock lifted look with a set of aggressive tires.

I also like the stock wheels. Of course the TRD wheels are more sought after but looks good with the 5star as well as the TRD.

Keep trd wheels look great

Those wheels look great on your very clean truck.

The running boards, brush gaurd and white tire lettering ... Not so much.

Id say plastic dip them. I dont like the looks of the chrome ring.

5 stars for sure. Those TRD wheels don't look right IMO, but to each his own. Love the color of the 5 stars, I'm in the process of painting mine gun metal grey right now actually

I agree. However, I think the OEM silver 5-stars would look best

I think limiteds (with the body cladding) look better with running boards..

Taillight guards need to go too.

ill be ditching the brush guard....eventually at some point probably this summer. and i agree i want to flip the white lettering on the tires if i keep these wheels, might change to the 5 stars before selling the TRD wheels to see if i like it and can always go back, i just dont like the idea of any of my cars riding on stock wheels.
