TRD Wheel Help

[MLPbrian]

Hey every1, I recently bought an used 2012 salsa red SR5 and I wanna upgrade the wheels. Im on build a 4runner page on the toyota website and I saw that the matte black TRD PRO wheels are $860 and the Beadlock style wheels are $1,799. Whats with the big price difference and are the beadlock style wheels better?

The reason why the TRD bead lock style wheels are more expensive is because they are forged wheels and the TRD Pro wheels are cast. Forged wheels have a higher strength and lower weight compared to cast wheels. The process used to manufacture forged wheels is more expensive than casting. Both wheels would be an upgrade from original SR5 wheels.
